Personal message to Kenneth MacArbin

Ambassador of Perdan,

My family would be furious with me if I turned down any offer of honey. They often prayed to a god that would provide.

I understand the importance of the medicinal benefits of honey, but my men are nonbelievers, and must come first. How can I earn their trust when I have to physically crane my neck to give out orders?

Lord Kenneth MacArbin,

There’s only so much I can explain of what happened. You have nothing to apologize for, I am sorry it brought much worry to you. To be honest, I am not even sure where to start.

More importantly, while I have promised Queen Alyssa to keep the Riverlands safe I have no doubt under her command that the lands will be kept from harm. I have spoken to Knight Oliver recently and I think he is rather kind. Perhaps he would be interested in becoming a steward instead?

As for me, I have no interest in stewarding. I am more curious about what is beyond the borders and would be happy to accompany.

Lord Kenneth,

I completely forgot to address your concern about oaths! I am quite pleased with most things but it would be nice to have some chocolates whenever and to share them with my friends.

Recently, I have received a basket of chocolates and candies but was unable to get to them sooner before they were destroyed. I am just rambling at this point- I have no specific requests.

Lord Kenneth MacArbin,

Duke of Danger, Margrave of Mystery? I plan to meet a Lucius after the trip; he mentions about looking forward to throwing me a party soon. I know that he loves music but is he really as eccentric as others say? It would be such a shame to be doubtful of his abilities.

On a more concerning topic, my men might give us unwanted attention and I am not a huge fan of loud confrontation. However, I will also try my best— to do what I can— to ensure that my lord and my lord’s sister will travel safe back home.

Is there something in particular that I should be packing for the voyage? I wonder if fruits would pair well with chocolates.

“Fruits would be excellent. . . and I would not worry about your men giving us unwanted attention, as we will want all of the attention.”

A small insect orbits around a bright light source unknowingly. Pandora had been replaying scenes in her head every so often, the ones about the bodies on the field of Clermont, with each reminder on the upcoming war with the Yssrgards.

Pandora was rather surprised at Kenneth’s words but did not want to further inquire about it; she finds her lord liege to be more courageous than expected and admired him. The ease of confidence Kenneth had expressed gave her a slight boost in morale despite the obvious perilous roads ahead. This was a statement that only death knew or was a calculated risk to be worthy of taking- to which side did Kenneth abide to?

Knowing that staying behind would be meaningless to the contribution, she had felt like she would let her friends and family down if she could not protect her lord. Yet, she felt even more unsure of herself; Pandora could not truly express herself on paper to say anything about it. In doing so, it would make a lowly knight seem incapable of carrying our orders once bounded by fear.

Pandora was unable to respond to the letter in a timely fashion; a small sigh and a light head shake is let out every time she glances at the empty letter without a proper response in mind.

Vice-Marshal Jacelyn Goldwater of Bisciye,

My men will arrive within 7 hours after sunrise. We will be following your direct orders. They are not the most compliant but we will make amends once they have adjusted. Our first taste of old blood was rather cruel.

Ser Calo Nord of Mulhouse,

You’re the new kid everyone’s talking about! I read in a book somewhere that the Yssrgard drink from the skulls of their enemies. Urgh. How frightening. I will tell you more about them when I get a chance.

Ah- if you pass by my family’s beehive, let them know that you’re a friend of mine, alrighty? The firebomb honey is the best for toast!

Anyway, where are you from?

Ser Oliver Laststar of Bescanon,

That one time I brought a jar of honey to lecture I made a mess and the tutor was furious with me. Do you remember? I was running so fast for a 6-year-old!

On a serious note, be careful. There has been suspicious activity going around, as a small warning. Dangerous baskets of wild chocolates and honey-pine bars of soap were delivered. I may have recently have gotten one, but nobody I’ve asked knows where it came from. If you have any trails, please let me know.

Ser Oliver Laststar of Bescanon,

How exciting, welcome to Perdan! My apologies, now that I remember, it must have been Oliver Lannister. That puts me at ease, too many personal secrets known can lead me to my demise~

As for chocolates, yes they are dangerously delicious! Perhaps it could be country women; some of my servants have notified me of duck feathers surrounding the basket when it was left behind on the front porch. I am unsure.

Have you spoken to Kenneth yet? Ah, I would notify him myself of your arrival but something quite embarrassing has happened lately. He was refreshingly pleasant when I became a new noble.

Gifts

A Gift to Pandora

Waiting by the front door of Pandora's estate is a wicker basket. The basket itself gives of the scent of cherry, and appears to be incredibly solid. Within the basket is a bottle of traditional golden mead from the Golden Lion Meadery in Bescanon, as well as a few hand-crafted soaps. One smelling of lavender, and another of a mix of pine and honey. Accompanying the mead and soaps are a few small items; chocolates, hard candies, some various duck feathers, wild flowers, and a little bee carved out of oak.

A note is also left with the basket that simply reads, "Save the bees. Welcome to Perdan."

If Pandora were to ask as to who may have left the basket, either nobody seems to have an answer, or no two stories match up.
