October 19

I do not fully understand the preoccupation many people have with masquerades. In addition to the Midsummer's Eve ball, this year we are holding a masquerade on All Hollows' Eve. Most seem to be full of adoration of this event, even though it is not so long since the last. We have been recieving many excited letters from those accepting the invitation, and even Lady Alicia and Finian are eager.

For this event, even the hostess and host are to disguised for some part of the night.

Finian wishes to match his costume to mine. I do not know what to be. I thought perhaps a seal, but that would not be wise, and what would Finian be with that? A fisherman again?

It is very puzzling, this enthususiasm to be other than yourself.

Some people...arn't good people, and know it. So its nice to pretend that they're good, just for a little bit.
