Henry's wound is healing nicely. He has adopted an air of pensive melancholy since the incident.

I'm trying to decorate. I never finished decorating for Easter, but these are some vintage cards.

I tried making an oven mitt from my own pattern, but it didn't work. I'm going to try again though.

Delphinia lay in a contorted state, her limbs drawn up against her protectively, looking like a frightened child, though she was in the depths of sleep. Her hair, dark-colored, the finer strands gilded and curling around her face and brow, was mangled, freed from its pins without a combing. She wore a loose white shift, no nightgown. Gervaise was not offended by disorder or carelessness, but Delphinia's disarray gave he...
