Reflective and Persistent

Journal Entry: 2026/04/30 Location: Lara II / Summer Sun Mood/Title: Reflective and Persistent

Today was a bit more subdued, but productive in its own way. I spent some time at the inn, enjoying a quiet tea with Erik and chatting with Aurora. It is always interesting to see who drifts in and out of the common spaces; we even had a visitor named Kellen, who seems like quite the talented baker and might be a wonderful addition to the community’s social life.

My mind, however, keeps drifting back to the College. It’s disheartening to lose a teacher so suddenly, but I am learning that setbacks are simply part of the process. I am not ready to give up on this dream, especially with Abraham’s legacy in mind. Erik was supportive, reminding me that growth is incremental—one class at a time. I am feeling more determined than ever to find the right people to help carry this forward.

There is a certain quietness to the work I am doing now, but it feels necessary. I am continuing to reflect on the nature of our caste and what it truly means to preserve our traditions properly. I am grateful for the steady rhythm of these days, even when things are quiet. I know that if I keep placing the right pieces—the brochures, the outreach, the conversations—the College will eventually find its footing again.

To Do:

  • Follow up with potential teachers to see if they might be willing to pick up the classes that were vacated.

  • Continue refining the curriculum notes and identifying the "right" voices to lead those sessions.

  • Keep sharing the brochures with new visitors at the inn and beyond.
