My Teacher,
By the time you receive this letter, you will surely know already that my residency on the Aunt Hare was carried out successfully. I fulfilled my duties to the utmost of my abilities. I hope that the captain is as satisfied with the results as I. Captain Siesko has been a wonderful host, considering the conditions. As I write this letter, we are approximately one day from landfall. Morado seemed such a distant land three months ago, but now it is Verous that is so distant.
The Cleric with whom I have been connected, Priestess Sophia de Borel , is, let us say, an interesting woman. I have my fair share of experience with the Mother Sun clergy, as you well know. Even so, Priestess Sophia’s enthusiasm is as inspiring as it is jarring. I have yet to see the extent of her capabilities, and if we are lucky such a thing will be unnecessary. Even so, it is reassuring to travel with one chosen by the Mother Sun.
I intend to keep a journal as I travel this strange land, that it may act as a record of any oddities I may encounter. In time, I would like for you to be able to read it. Even though I intend to maintain some level of correspondence, there is only so much information that can be efficiently conveyed through those means.
I look forward to a day in which we may tell one another all that transpires as the ocean separates us. I should think by then I shall be a proper, independent woman. I shall work tirelessly to achieve my goals in Morado, and hope that I shall have much to share in time.
I hope that you are well, my teacher. I know that you worry for me, and justifiably so, but I am similarly anxious to hear of how well you have been faring. Until next we meet, I shall keep you in my thoughts. May the Dusk Mage illuminate us both with blessings of knowledge and wisdom.
With the kindest of regards and the best of wishes,
Robin Weiss
