NOTE: ALL of the following in this thread is private unless explicitly stated otherwise.
Dearest Mother, I trust that you are well. My stay here has not been enjoyable, but it has been livable. I have been given adequate food and shelter. I have no connections but I am hoping that will change. I would like you to know that I have been keeping up with all of my studies, putting emphasis on diplomacy and other such related topics. I have been progressing quite rapidly over the last month. I hope to make you proud. I will keep you informed with my ongoings as they develop. For the time being, please send my regards around. I await news of the arrangement and of affairs at home. I hope to hear from you soon. Sincerely yours, Alexis Arendel Signature

Dearest Sister, Once again, how do you fare? I admit I was not expecting to write you again quite this soon. With a more competent messenger you may even receive this letter before my last. But as I have not met anyone of note until late and as I promised to keep you informed, I feel I should send you this anyway. I have met several people, who I would not call friends, but who I believe I will be interacting with more as of late. I am not sure how to describe them, there is no collective to them. The first I met was some sort of shifter whose intelligence appears to be linked to his form. I am unsure why he would choose to shift in the first place, but he certainly does so. His name is Creo and while I try to avoid criticizing anyone directly, (I do not wish for enemies. As a family we have enough already.) between you and me he is about as civilized as a gnomish drunkard. An alliance with him is worth little to me and all of our interactions have been unpleasant. I would like to avoid him. At the same time it displeases me to see how Sparrow treats him. As if he is not a person. And it displeases me a thousand times more that I am grateful to Sparrow that he does. Sparrow is another person I met and dislike already. Our first encounter was fairly superficial, pleasantries, exchanging of names, that sort of thing. Our second encounter involved him harshly interrogating Creo and myself, asking us what we were. I was not sure what he meant. I thought he wanted my title (or more likely already knew and wished for me to confirm) which I was reluctant to give, as I was certain it would make me a new enemy on the spot. Feydrin said he wasn't a real guard, so I was not obligated to share. I could have gotten out of it if I had kept a level had, but Sparrow said I was a suspect for something and I panicked. Finally he revealed that he was looking for a demon and all I had to say was that I was human. I am not certain what use that was, as if I were a demon is surely be able to lie well enough for him, but he seemed satisfied. I do not like the way he always watches other people, nor the way he speaks to me. I do not like how he works with the guards. I am way of him. Feydrin, whom was mentioned earlier, appears to be a dryad. Even though he is fae, he is the most gentlemanly of everyone I have met so far. He stood up against Sparrow for me when I was panicking and he seems to be kind and honest with me. The only issue is that he is from Syenon. Hopefully he is not deeply affiliated with it. Sena also appears to be genuinely friendly. She is a cheery hobbit who I've only spoken to a little. Our meeting did not have much to it. She seemed kind, but she was affiliated with Sparrow. Perhaps I should keep a more open mind. I had some hopes for Anna. She is an elf who spoke with refinement, but she did not pick up on the subtleties of my remarks. To be honest I only wish that I had had a better day before meeting her, as she could have been interesting. It might have surprised me to know that I should not be the youngest who is staying here alone. To be fair, that is technically correct. There is an elven child by the name of Rulyth who is likely many times as old as me, but she is much less grown. Several of the other people have told her she should not be here. I am inclined to agree, but I like the fact that she is. I can tell her things that she won't quite understandbut that I feel should be told. I may have offered her a little more help than is realistic but I should be able to get out of that. Finally there is Avory. She seems harmless enough, but that is about it. I am not certain how I fit in not am I certain how they all fit together. If Creo and Sparrow were not here, I could almost find the group likable. Of course it should not be. Not for me. Is it wrong that I am looking forward to having everything settled merely do that I may leave this place? Please do not answer, I am certain I do not truly feel that way. Say hello to your husband for me. Alexis

My dearest sister, How are you? I apologize if I am writing with too much frequency, but I feel alone enough here that it would not trouble me to do so daily. I just made a complete fool of myself in front of Feydrin Nelfass. I mentioned him in my last letter, but I may have forgotten to write that he is a prince from Syenon. I had hoped to deal kindly with him regardless, as he has shown kindness to me, but he most likely hates me by now. I would not blame him. I am not certain how much influence he has. Perhaps I should ask. If he ever forgives me then I could use a powerful ally. Maybe our whole family would benefit. I should not hope too much, as his mother stepped down from her position. For some reason I am a little paranoid. Already two people have feigned sympathy for me in hopes that I would reveal my deep, dark secret. If I had one then they would likely not need to do anything so clever. I practically told my whole life's story to a little girl merely because she asked. I briefly mentioned some of our unpopular history, but I can not imagine that she shall be pleased to learn the full truth. After all, I am not pleased by the full truth. So far I have befriended this said child, a mentally ill girl, and perhaps another who may be a demon. I am not sure if we are friends, although I did defend him when he needed it. I am only about a month into my stay. Perhaps I should keep more hope. And they are not bad company in of themselves. But at the same time there is this lingering thought that they are also going to hate me before long, especially if I continue to slip up so much. Honestly at the moment I wish for no one to ever see my face again. I am a fool. How are you? Please give me something to distract me. Love, Alexis

Dearest sister, I trust you are well. (Please do tell me if you ever are not.) Quite a deal has happened. A few days ago, I had intended to write to you. I did not end up sending to you for a number of reasons which I should not go into in a place such as this. In the end I burned the note-or at least I thought I had as I returned later to find the child Rulyth screaming and crying for the shifter Creo to return it. I’m not sure how much he now knows, but he has shown a consistent lack of respect for the boundaries of others combined with an odd desire to collect any information he can about others. I do not like or trust him. And I sort of promised Rulyth that he would face justice if he ever did anything again. It was late at night. Do you think perhaps she forgot that? I went to Sparrow for help. He told me that all I need is to inform him about any slip-ups. I will, but the elf Anna is likely to put a dagger in him first, especially now that he is trying to court Avory. I should probably save my concern for myself. Avory and Rulyth are both older than me. Hopefully they can handle themselves. No, Rulyth is a child and I am almost of age, but Anna is looking out for Avory. She asked me to suggest to Rulyth that she should not go adventuring, and while I am inclined to agree (and likely could convince her) for some reason that I can not explain, I have not even mentioned it. Perhaps I do not wish for her to think of me as just another adult who tries to tell her what to do. Perhaps I have just grown rebellious. (To the city guards intercepting my letters: I swear I am not going to do anything.) You might laugh at me for my concern over what a little girl thinks of me, but I would like for at least one person to like me. Everyone else still hates me, except perhaps Prince Feydrin Nelfass, who now probably just pities me. I begged him to respect Rulyth, as he believes her to be xenophobic because Silvian (a half demon whom I quite like) was chased away on her behalf. Between him and Creo spreading nasty rumors, it would not surprise me if everyone excepting Sena and myself tried to ship her away. Even I can not even count on Sena for support for anything, she most likely hates me just as much as everyone. On a related note, is it rude to call a commoner or freeholder “Miss” in the Falnin province? I always did so at home and no one minded, but here everyone seems to object to common courtesy. Prince Feydrin will not even allow me to call him anything so high as “Sir.” Speaking of him and the real reason I am writing, I told him of my situation and asked for his help. It was a gamble, but I do not think he hates me quite as much as I resent him. I do not believe the war was his fault any more than I believe our unpleasant history was mine, but as I told him I am not in a position to disregard familial ties. He referred to our country as such, which is hopeful. He may have some connections as well. I was having an unusually good day, so I was able to maintain my dignity throughout our exchange. I will not go into anything later that night. I have said a lot about other people. I personally have been getting more comfortable with day-to-day interactions, but that is all. I certainly ran on. As always, send my greetings to everyone. Love, Alexis

Dearest Mother, I trust that you are very well. I am writing to you to thank you very much for my lessons on sword play that you had me take when younger. They have already helped me a good deal. My diplomacy studies are progressing very well. In many ways I have learned more in just my short stay than I have in all my lessons before. I may have learned of some political issues that Falnin may have seen. Nothing too serious I hope, as Falnin seems to have put a good deal of effort into patching everything up. There is probably no need to even worry at this point, although you would be a better judge of that than I. I miss you very much. I await your response. Sincerely yours, Alexis Arendel Signature Two prisoners convicted of morganti torture of children claim to have been framed. Note that they could easily have lied.

Dearest Brother, Greetings. I trust that you are well. I apologize for how little I have written to you. I promise that this was not intentional, it merely has not occurred to me to do so. As you likely could have surmised given where I am, I have not been especially happy as of late, but I am well enough, aside from a deal of action and deaths. (I am told that none were too serious, but I still can not get over them.) Aside from yesterday, I spend my time either studying or in an underground inn with several others including a surprising amount of royalty for a such as this. And children, although I hope truly that they will leave. Of course I miss everyone at home far more than I enjoy their presences. That is why I am writing to you. In case anything happens, I just wanted to have sent you something. Please tell me how you are and any news you have. I shall attempt to be more consistent in writing. I wish more than anything to be with you all right now. Love to you and your wife. Alexis

Dearest sister, I trust you are well. I wish I had something to say to you other than I am glad that you are safe where you are. Tell me everything that has been happening with your life in the past month or so. Anything you say would be a welcome escape. I have been busy studying and making a fool of myself. I am certain you are not surprised. I will spare you the rest of the details of my stay here, as you probably do not wish to hear them. Love to everyone. Alexis

Dearest Sister, I trust you receive this letter in good health. I have been trying to spend time above ground. We are getting done rain down here. Not much, but enough to appreciate the tunnels for. I wonder if they ever flood. A tenant asked me for help with an issue of his. Rather he asked a number of us through use of letters so as not to alert a guard of his intentions. Feydrin immediately reported him-on the behalf of all of us. As a result I did not have to take any action. I feel terrible that I was asked in the first place. Especially so soon after everything. Between that and Creo, this past evening was already tiresome enough to warrant a letter of complaints. That is not quite all however. The inn was full of Syenon nobility. Granted, there were no more than two of them, but by the noise they made there might as well have been a dozen. I was more transparent than I would have liked to be. And yet I find it difficult to care what either of them thinks of me. I am no longer interested with working with Feydrin. He said something which bothered me a great deal. The other, Fara Lettam, was well enough drunk that I do not believe anything she said was of worth. Certainly none of it had a good impression on me. How is it that people like them did so much to us? On the bright side I now know better than have any intention to drink anything more than the odd glass of wine, having seen what fools it makes of people firsthand. I shall try to behave well, no matter how far my actions may be bellow my dignity. In the mean time I shall also focus more deeply on my studies. I shall write again to you soon. Love, Alexis

My Dearest Sister, I trust you are well. I do not know why I do not write to you more. I think of you every day and wonder what you would think of me. I keep seeing things out reading things, nothing important enough to warrant a letter, just little snippets that make me think of you. I instinctively want to go inside and tell you every time before my mind realizes the illogic of it. Or sometimes I sit down to eat and find myself waiting for you to sit down next to me. Or from the corner of my eye I see something the sane color as one of your dresses, and so I turn to greet you. I have similar experiences with our brother and parents and various other people around the house. I probably will not write this to them, but you can tell them that they are all in my thoughts. There is a little girl who lives here in the same inn as me. Her name is Rulyth and she is a few years younger than you. (That is to say many years older than any of us-she is an elf.) She is very different from you, but when I speak with her sometimes I think of you back at home and wish you were there as well. I never fully appreciated your presence, but even now your memory helps me along. It was speaking with Rulyth this past night that inspired me to write this to you. I apologize for writing to you as if you are dead. You have my full permission to tear me for that. Regardless, I love you. Say hello to everyone for me. Alexis Postscript: Does Father prefer chocolate or honey covered sweets? I do not recall.

Dearest Sister, How are you? I've done little else than study over the past few days, but I write to you because I feel I should keep you informed. I have been feeling a lot of resentment lately. I wish I did not so I could focus on other things, but unfortunately there is not much for me to do short of distracting myself. Rulyth bought me a dress cloak. It is very beautiful and in our colors, but it has a swan on it, not an oyster.Of course she was not thinking of insignias, she only thought of favorite animals. She is a very sweet girl, but I wish she had not spent her money on me. I can certainly pay my own way. I hope to hear from you soon. Alexis

Dear Alexis,
How are you? Have you had adventures yet? What is Mandel like? I asked Nana but she said she said we're not studying that yet, it will be later. I've just been studying Ardel history forever, but I want to know more about Mandel and Illionor and other things. Nana is also making me learn about laws and I know it's important but it's so hard to understand. It just goes on and on and on, and it says so many things but I can never figure out what it means! I wish I didn't have to. But she's also been letting me do drawing lessons and I have so many drawings of the garden now! I want to go out to the lookout and draw the ocean too but I want to wait until I'm better at drawing so that it's really good. I'll send you one when I finish it.
Did you hear? Emerald's going to have a baby! I don't know if it's a girl or a boy yet, she won't tell me, she doesn't send me any letters back. Mom has been unhappy, I don't know why, she won't talk about it. She and Dad talk a lot, Dad's been really busy, I don't think he's been away much but there's just lots to do right now I guess. Terrance has been with them a lot, I think he's learning how to do things so that he can take over for grandpa when he dies. Sometimes Sara goes with him but sometimes she visits me and we talk together. I like her more now than when he got married to her. She's a lot more fun than she seemed like.
I miss you, I wish you would come back. Do you think when you get married you can visit? That would be fun. Maybe by then Terrance and Sara will have a baby too. She said they weren't going to for a few years though so it might be a while. Mom misses you too, I think she would like it if you visited.
Love, Iris
