The letter is a plain piece of paper, unlabeled, but stuffed under the door of Martin's room to make sure the intended recipient is clear. In other areas of the house, weapons are missing from the armory and some plants from Mitra's room had been relocated to the kitchen. Outside, the chickens' food and water had been topped off. It isn't Friendship Day yet -- only barely November -- but the sentiment of the thing is the same.

Sorry, I wasn't allowed much time before leaving. I wanted to catch you in person if I could, but this will have to do.

I've been assigned to a mission that I can't share many details about. I'm not sure how long I'll be away exactly, but it sounds like it will be a few weeks at least. Maybe a few months, depending on how things go. You should be able to get confirmation (and updates, I hope) at the Citadel.

Please remember to feed the chickens, and do your best to let someone reliable know where you're going before wandering into the wilderness. I have some other things you might need to manage included on a separate paper here, but those are the important ones!

Hopefully I messaged everyone who might come looking for me, but if someone asks, please let them know I'm alright.

Be safe. Hope to see you soon :D
Mitra

Her first letter is left at the von Aegir memorial with a bouquet of flowers.

Dear family,

The land upon which our house sits was taken recently. I told others that it had not bothered me, but in truth I was quite devastated by the matters. You should be able to rest, though I hope that you all feel comforted that this land was given to people who need it, and that they are still able to live out their dreams because of our sacrifice.

I still make an effort to visit at least twice a month, although Cerberus has been keeping everyone quite busy. I've not said this to anyone, but the commissioner has big plans coming up. I am not privy to them, though I have much faith in her capabilities. I am curious if it had something to do with what happened all those years ago.

I am working hard to make sure you get the justice you deserve. I hope I've made you all proud. Next week I will come by with fresh flowers...Until next time.

Fiat justitia,
Amari

James Knox' letter comes in a gold encrusted stationery. Inside the box is a collection of vintage cheeses, dried fruits, and wines, enough for two. There is also an ornate knife, made by an artisan.

Dear James,

My devoted and kind-hearted friend. I hope you are doing well these days. We've been busy lately, but let's do catch up sometime. For the holidays, I've attached a gift that I came across on my travels, and thought of you. Please enjoy.

Amari von Aegir

The letter to milo tremerie is short and formal. Attached to the gift is a fancy ice carving of Rosalie, enchanted so that it never melts.

Milo,

I heard you have been placed under Eliza's command. Do make sure you live up to her expectations. Please enjoy this gift from Alecto.

Dear Amari,

I am again reminded of how important you are in my life.
As my dearest friend and confidant I have a deep trust in you that knows no bounds.
I hope we can get together again soon.
The boys have been talking about bringing you on the next of our family excursions.
You're loved within our home, and I hope to see you again soon.

My well wishes for you, dear friend. Attached you will find a small gift.

Your Truly,
James

To Reiner and Bastian,

My how you both have brown. In just a blink of an eye you have sprouted into adulthood.
I still remember the days when I could hold the both of you in each arm.
Now you have your goals. Your aspirations. Your loves.

I hope this day treats you weill. Remember that you always have a friend and a father in me.
I will be there to support you. At your lowest, and at your highest of moments.

Yours Dearly,
James

Dear Jeremiah,

Times have been hard on the both of us. You especially.
I do not envy your position, but I do support you.
These trials that we face we face together, though from different ends.
All for the same cause.

To save people.

I know you, and I know you won't know peace or breaks until Delphi and it's friends do.

So never, really.

Just remember that it's okay to breath. Take so time for yourself.

I hope this present comes in use to you, as you deserve it and more.

Dearest Draven,

I hope this letter finds you well. I know you're not a fan of rambling, so I'll get to the point.

Thank you for being in my life. You mean a lot to me.

I hope this wine finds you well. Perhaps we can share it together one night soon.

With Love,
James

Darling Fierabras,

O my Luve is like a red, red rose
   That’s newly sprung in June;
O my Luve is like the melody
   That’s sweetly played in tune.

So fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
   So deep in luve am I;
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
   Till a’ the seas gang dry.

Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,
   And the rocks melt wi’ the sun;
I will love thee still, my dear,
   While the sands o’ life shall run.

And fare thee weel, my only luve!
   And fare thee weel awhile!
And I will come again, my luve,
   Though it were ten thousand mile.

- Robert Burns

I hope this letter finds you well, my darling Fiera.
With every day we spend together my heart swells to new ends I did not think possible.
For you I would find the ends of the Earth and still press on, in hopes that you live a good and happy life.

Thankfully I need not go through such measures. Instead I can spend my days with you.
Blessed am I for your companionship.

Tonight I have a picnic set for two, if you will be my date.

With Love,

Harold G. Wells

Attached is a simple letter written in black ink. There is an piece of origami in the shape of a mantis. ha-yoon lim

Dear Cousin,

ripples in a pond,
a group of koi swim and eat
cool waves lap to shore

I hope you are doing well these days. We have since gone on our own separate roads, but may we cross paths soon. I'm eager to know how your life has been going lately.

Jae

The letter is enclosed in an envelope with ornate indentations. There's treats enclosed, enough for both Philly and Hyale's familiars.

Dear phiale nephelaid ,

white clouds and blue skies,
gliding on the warmest air,
smiles that rival sun

It has been far too long since I have seen you. How are you and your sister doing? There is a holiday celebration in Delphi this year, if you are free, I would love to have both of you as company!

Jae Lim

A black envelope with little fanfare is attached, but it's enchanted so that it opens by itself and hangs in front of the viewer, for ease of use. Jae has gifted Erin a small ornate dagger, made with the finest craftsmanship.

Dear erin caulfield ,

lady of the night,
that blooms only in darkness,
glistening and white

It's been sometime since we've properly chatted. I learned of this flower and thought of you, please enjoy this dagger that was made in its name.

The next letter is written in stationery customary to the Vale, and includes another wooden charm in the shape of a viper.

Dear Hesperaloe Cartier ,

sunlight dots the ground
insects buzz, and the birds call
a snake is watching

It was lovely seeing you and Megera in Delphi again, after so long. There was not enough time in the day to chat, but there's plenty of time to rekindle our old friendship. May the new year treat you well.

Jae Lim
