Mood/Title: Meeting with Kelli in Turmus & The Turmus City Meeting

Started the morning over in Turmus for my meeting with Kelli Greymoon-Rizzo, Chief Scribe and High Magistrate of Turmus, regarding my proposal to open a school at building #25. We had a productive discussion about my role and experience as a magistrate, as well as the balance between my time in Olni and Turmus. Kelli officially approved my proposal to establish the school in building #25 (pending Ubara Selia's sign-off on the specific building), noting that I can serve as the school's teacher without needing to move my primary residency immediately. Afterwards, I stopped by the inn and enjoyed a cup of blackwine prepared by Ducky (Thessallia).

Later in the afternoon, I attended the Turmus City Meeting at the Palace, hosted by Ubar Bactu and Ubara Selia. Lady Carola gave an extensive update on the upcoming Grand Merchant Fair starting July 25th, including details on the High Caste booths, scavenger hunt, and prize donations. We also heard from the city's Magistrate Sebastian, who addressed title security and kennel policies, as well as Commander Augustus Bade on city defenses and regional reports. Ended the day checking back in at Olni.

To Do:

• Confirm building #25 approval with Ubara Selia for the Turmus school.

• Begin outlining curriculum and setup for the new Turmus schoolhouse.

• Prepare materials and confirm schedule for upcoming Olni classes.
