From the diary of Kristin Taemar, chambermaid to Ambrogino Schnoodaert.

Speranza. I came here to search for a new life. But I never imagined it would be like this.
I am lucky to have been hired as promptly as I was. I had expected to find little work, other then maybe tending the fields or working at the bar. Who would have guessed that a chambermaid would be in such high demand?
It’s a strange little village. And not just because all walks of life, from all over the old continent have been thrown together. The weather is odd, the plants and animals are weird and people seem to have their priorities in…an interesting order.
What amazes me most is the high number of nobles. I would never have expected to find any, but not only are they here, in great numbers, they are also ruling the place like it was an old world kingdom.
Strange. But at least I don’t have to adapt.
In my short time here I have been trough a lot. Attacks by tribes, a classical ball masque and an interesting walk in the moonlight with a handsome gentleman.
Not to mention seeing my employer in a dress.
But who am I kidding. I have seen worse in my time. Nobles will be nobles, no matter where you put them.

At least I lucked out with master Gino. Finally an employer that wont try his best to get under my skirts. And it has been heartwarming to see how protective he is of his personnel. If there was something that made me help feel at home, it was his concern for me after I had been attacked. Its not something I have experienced many times before from employers.
Master Gino seems like a good young man. Finally someone who deserves loyalty, instead of just expecting it.

Opportunities are plentiful here in Speranza. Its strange and new, while keeping in honor much of the old from back home. There will be interesting times ahead. Master Gino has hinted at options for the fashion house, and it looks like a lot of gentlemen might be interested in dance lessons. Plenty of ways to move forward.

And who knows what the future might bring, that handsome man might just be interested in another moonlight walk. If I can tear him away from his work…

ic, aon, larp
