My Bladed Lady,

I have agreed to do as asked and have started to speak with people as you suggested.

I have been speaking with a Suneite but have yet to find someone of Sharess and am still not sure about Illmater.

If you have any further suggestions please let me know.

Love, Shauna

Dear Shauna,

Might I also recommend priests of the elven goddess Hanali Celanil?

Sincerely, Quadra the Bladed Lady

Dearest Quadra,

It is sad that I did not seek this a week ago - Deleng, an Elven Priestess of Hanali, fell in battle and I brought her belongings out.

I have not heard from anyone with regards to the poster that was put up but the Suneite I have been seeing has been speaking to Kata about some ideas. I have never seen Kata this closed lipped about something and must admit to trepidation.

I am still hopping you will find it in yourself to forgive me.

Missing You, Shauna

There is nothing to forgive. You were right all along, and I simply didn't want to give up my control of the situation. It was foolish and prideful.

I too am worried for Kata and Phyrra. Something is amiss with them both, I suspect. I miss the both you and Kata dearly, and hope to spend some quality time with you in the next while.

Shauna,

<3

My heart goes out to you, like a candle in the wind. I'm sorry for being so negative with Phyrra today, but I honestly believed she was trying to turn you to darkness. I'll have to apologize to her as well, next time I see her. And, in advance, I forgive you for your thoughtless, rude, mean, inconsiderate and hurtful words. I feel better now. *a few drops of something wet stain the page here, and they smell like very strong alcohol*

Please let me know if you like her, so I can try not to be jealous. It's pretty hard right now. I'm really, really, really, really, really, really jealous. For clarity's sake, considering our earlier chat, I don't---like her---that way. I feel weird around her and her butt isn't the right shape. Don't tell her I wrote that. In fact, don't read it. *a few more drops* I don't feel so good so I'm goi

Dearest Quadra,

The past hours have been some of the hardest and most draining in my life. I apologise for anything hurtful I may have said - a lot of this is like a blur.

Phyrra is a Sister to me Quadra and I will always love her as a Sister - as for us there is no need to be jealous - if something is amiss I will tell you up front - come and talk when your stomach is settled.

Love Shauna
