Dear Mara,

What a joy to receive your package and discover you are in such high spirits! I think a little wood lore certainly won't do the Urchins any harm and, actually, will probably do them some good. I've found what little I was taught has come in quite handy in the past.

I do appreciate your help in my little endevour. For now I am practicing that ill-used human ability: patience. I do realize you fae have it down quite "pat" (as I believe the Americans say) but it is difficult for me. I… Continue

The Clockwinder is apparently being "cared" for by him, I'd love to see for myself exactly what sort of "care" Mr. Underby is capable of giving.

Skyler is missing, the rumors have been flying all over town about it but I… Continue

Journal,

I am feeling much better today, it is odd how these headaches come and go. Perhaps I eat or drink something that causes them thought I can't imagine what...

I decided to take the entire day off, and what a joy it was.

I danced, I chatted, I didn't have to worry about shedding on my own carpet.
