Winter
The winter came
and with it the cold
Snow has piled high on my balcony
and the nights have grown longer
The fire in my hearth roars
My servants bring wood for it constantly
Sometimes it seems like that is all they do
All around are tiny braziers of heat
No wood or coal powers them
They are magic
and give off heat without having to be fed
Denora has let me keep my warm clothes
So that I may go out on the balcony as I wish
Although she does not let me stay long
She doesn't want me to get sick again
I lay in the snow
and stare at the winter gray sky
There is no sign of life in the sky
Or on the ground
One time I watched the suns set
One of them right after the other
It was most beautiful
At one point it snowed for three days
I stood there looking through the curtains
Watching it come down
I remember wondering if it would ever end
Afterwards the snow was piled so high
That I couldn't go out in it
Feet of it lay against the thick curtain
Which my servants had hung
I sit and talk with Michelle a lot
We have fun and play games
She is my best friend ever
She marries soon
and talks of it constantly
I have never met her to-be
and I don't think I ever will
Lord Venger comes frequently
He has only hit me once
Since the snow began to fall
I was wrong
and he corrected me
We dine together often
At least every other night
We talk about many many things
Lord Venger's winter wine is delicious
It tastes like cranberries
Both sweet and strong
The food is plentiful
and the best I have ever had
Dragon steak, roasted venison, and fowl
With lots of tubers and other vegetables

I sit there and gaze at him
He really is a very handsome man
Royal, like a king
I suppose in his own way
That is what he is
Afterwards we make love
He is passionate
and I enjoy it
More than ever now I realize the truth of his words
'I am his now'
When Lord Venger is not here
I dine with my servants
They did not ask me to
but I them
It is good to have someone to be friends with
Every day I drink the dark tea arcania
I drink it from morning to bed
It makes me feel better
That is all I will write today
