Mother, I hope this letter finds you well. The months since my last letter have passed quickly for me, though I am sure they have been slow for you and the rest of Calencia. Perhaps I shall be able to make the trip back home soon, it would be good to see everyone again. I hope to have a semi permanent address soon, that you may write back to tell me of happenings back home.

Mother, I know it has been a few weeks since I left Calencia with those strangers who visited in search of the amphora that drove Lindin mad. How are things back home? Is Inga still sticking her nose in everyone’s business under the pretext of oracle work? Have there been any other strangers in town? I trust you are doing well, probably worrying needlessly about my marital status again. I hope
