So, why would I fight a giant shark? Well, that is a little bit of a story of itself. I am on a mission to create a most wonderous weapon. I am not going to reveal for who or what it is here. However, when the weapon is made, I am sure it will find great fame! Well, if I don't die in the process of collecting the parts and creating the thing.

I saw the most /giant/ of sharks! I swear it was nearly as big as the boat we sailed in on! The locals had named this creature Squall. It tore up the boat we all had sailed in on, but we survived.. and Squall is dead. No mo merchants or sailors will be devoured by this man-eating beast anymore.

Life has a funny way of playing out how you might never expect.
Well, sometimes it's funny. Other times it's illuminating or unsettling, even terrifying. It can definitely be terrifying. Yet that runs alongside some truly shining moments.
I guess I'm finding it hard to put into words (this is new for me!) the whirlwind I've experienced since my arrival in this city. My new home. What I can say is this: The people I've met so far and the things I've learned have changed the way I look at this world. I don't think I'll ever be exactly the same again!

Lord Wash has hardly left my side the entire time I have been in the hospital awaiting surgery. I know that the entire Kennex household take their duties most seriously and yet I am humbled by how devoutly Lord Wash takes his role as my patron and friend. I am blessed to have many friends visit including the Archscholar who reads to me, Lore who keeps me from getting bored, and I think nearly every physician in the city.

When I look at some of the patients in Saving Grace Hospital, I marvel at what our talented physicians and medics can accomplish and at the patients with such endurance and stamina and determination to not let some of those horrid wounds become fatal.

That was an interesting conversation the other night, Scholar. Thank you. It's always nice to get a bit of a chat about the gods and ponder the ramifications of fidelity and honour with regard to the changing seasons, and how what some people will see as Mangata and Petrichor breaking faith with Limerance and Gloria will be seen by most as pure bad luck.
There's never a shortage of things to be learned, and a good discussion always helps learning. And a pint or two always helps a good discussion!

Our family had a get together for the first time in--I don't know how long. But it was good feeling to get us all together, for whatever reason. Though I'm afraid I'll be having to apologize for a few---outbursts that I'm sure will be heard about the house.

My brother wrote something about me wanting to wrestle. Let it be said....He wants this more than I do. I think it's been awhile since he's been in any sort of brawl and deep down he misses it. I think we should have some sort of mud wrestling competition thing. Triton against....everyone!

A long time ago, Count Magnus and I decided to try and get used to the heat in a sweat lodge. In the middle of summer. So we sat there. For hours. Sweating, cleansing out all the things. Then we got out, greeted by the heat. Practically gasping for air. Because you know, still hot. I can firmly say, this was not one of our greatest ideas. It was awful.
Not sure why I thought of that, likely because summer is here.

Relationship Note on Ember
You were an equal participant. You're at fault too.
Perhaps to an even greater degree, too. Since as the ruler of your household, it was you who likely arranged the marriage and created the possibility of your current state.
I'm glad that we could clear that up and I wish you the greatest of good fortune for the remainder of your plight.

Roses can be very difficult to cultivate from cuttings. On the journey back from Tor, I think my traveling companions must have thought me half-mad that I paid for an extra seat in the caravan for my cuttings that were carefully and lovingly crated to keep them safe. Thankfully, they all made it here intact and so begins the process of trying to see them take root.
According to my mentor in Tor, the best fertilizer for roses is fish, which has necessitated a couple of trips down to the fish market in the Lowers and means that my garden doesn't smell pleasant, just yet. I have planted mint around the storage containers in order to help with the stench at the advise of Mistress Amelia who sells some of the most lovely fish on the docks. It's not easy stuff to work with, but it does the job.
I also gave the library a thorough dusting and aired out my rooms. Tanith tells me that I have a couple more nieces and nephews to dote upon and a couple more to arrive. I imagine that my parents' house is chaos right now and that they will forgive me if I keep my distance for the most part. I need more quiet than anyone else in my family. Some part of me wonders if that is something I got from my mother along with the nose.

I have no intention of dying anytime soon, but the Queen doesn't ask for my input. So my will follows:
To the Shrine of the Thirteenth, I request that the Faith allows the balance of my bank account be given to the Mirrormasks that they will not lack for resources in their duties to the Dark Reflection. I also ask to gift them my Mirrormask in hopes that others will remember the power of the Reflection. The tabard and long coat of Lord Tehom's Archlector should return to the shrine for the one that succeeds me.
Beyond these wishes, I don't care if someone wants a bit or bob. I entrust Father Vayne with the distribution of mementos. Ultimately, in accordance with my Vows, I leave my estate in the hands of the Faith to decide its best use.

The physicians at Redreef Shores tell me that I am about a month into pregnancy.
My armor's breastplate fits awkwardly and painfully.
I am tired from even moderate swordplay exercise.
Everything smells so vivid and intense in a way that makes me wish only to cut off my own nose and cauterize the crater.
How do other noblewomen end up with nine children? This has barely started and I am ready to swear to the gods that I will never let my husband touch me again, for what he's done to me. I will drink Limerance tea by the gallon until it's replaced at least one of my humors.
This child had better not be a pest or a runt. They had better be worth this trouble.

Relationship Note on Emara
Oh gods, Emara's back in town. I need to get hold of some strong drink before the pair of them empty my wine rack because it didn't escape in time. Time to visit the importers on my way through the Wards, see what I can lay my hands on.
Welcome home, Emara! Just give me a day or two to stock the cupboards properly before you drop by, alright?
I swear, it's worse than when Syd drops by, and that's bad enough... Oh. You weren't meant to write that bit down, Scholar. Oh well.

Please note that the scholars may take some time preparing your journal for others to read.
