(groaning) The Czarina Oksana and myself stayed up half the night waiting on "New Year" to arrive. The Baron Cyril and Duchess Tzatiyana were among our guest lists, along with the Saluki bedouins, Sultan Sakeri and Sultaness Kivah, as well as Shiek Daavii and Shiekah Mya. The court was filled with our children playing, with yips and yawls of my dearest nine and the Sultaness' ten. When finally my dearest put the last of the wee ones to slumber, we awaited, along with Mother, for the arrival of this guest who was coming, though I know I did not invite him.
New Year? Bah! Mother simply got up and hugged us all, greeted us to the New Year and went to bed! Am I missing something? Did the guest arrive and dissapear? How rude! None of my comrades would ever do such a thing! Not even mine own brother, The ArchDuke Dillion!
Mother assures me that good things are to come with the New Year, so we shall see. Yes, we shall see.
