Dame Merouda Pendray

her chronicle

 

This is both a research project and an experiment in creating a diary in the style of a Tudor-era woman. Research notes are usually found here, and my primary journal is here.

I am at last returned from ye barony of Western Seas, which is in ye Neww Kingdom of Caid, and I moost weary for all ye trauel. Et my Lord et I trauelled there at ye inuitation of his grete friend, Dauid von dem grĂ¼nen Berg, et we were in ye company of hys lady wyffe 7 daughter. Et we were hosted within ye Canton of Torvald & trauelled in ye Cantons of Castle North et Bard's Keep, but we were much isolated from ye denezins of ye Newe Kingdom et instead found ourselves most among ye Nihonese who also trauel there. Et so we were situated most comfortably in an Inn, et visited many fine places, 7 yt which did seem passing stragne was yt of an Ottoman house, which hadde many fine tiles and plates made by ye Moors & having vpon ym Arms et phases in latin.
