Dear Damien,

  I didn’t think I would have to inform you that any letters sent are not gone through nor reported to any known rivals. When my health is manageable, I will make it paramount that I come to see you. I can’t have you alone with your own thoughts, especially while Dalari is out of town. She cares very deeply about you and why should she not? If not for my sake then for hers would you give a small amount of your time? Maybe you could show her what you’ve been working on. It might give her just the smallest amount of appreciation.

  With all reason, Aevum
