To: “S.W.”
From: “T.A.” (Address is a Puerto Rojas PO box)
Subject: None
Encryption: Handwritten letter passed through General Orozco, military attaché at the Adiran embassy in Fineberg
I am disappointed, I’d be lying if I said otherwise, but you are not defiled in my eyes. I am hardly in a position to judge as I have to confess as well. My present attachment exists because I was weak. I didn’t realize until we parted that you were putting on a brave face. In our time apart I came to believe you could not forgive me. Your first letter was a shock. Meanwhile, in one moment of weakness I started a meaningless little distraction. We were found out and it went further than I think either of us ever intended. I was a fool, I’ve betrayed your trust, I doubted you, and I’ve given you every indication that I’ve abandoned you. I can only apologize and ask your forgiveness.
I don’t know if you can bring yourself to trust me again, but I do know that I owe it to you to make things right if I’m in any way capable of doing so. I won’t be weak again. I am preparing right now for whatever consequences may follow. Circumstances at present seem favorable to retain my current position regardless. Even if I do not, I could never leave you in the lurch. As it stands you have already lost and risked far more than I ever did.
If I were thinking only of myself, I would ask that you come here permanently, and we commit fully to a life together. Damn the consequences to me, I’ll manage one way or the other. I am confident you could put your skills and intelligence to work in any number of careers if you wanted to. I would try to make things right with your family if at all possible. I wish I could elaborate further.
That’s what would make me happy, but it asks nothing of me and asks you to make a terrible sacrifice which you alluded to in your previous letter. You are right to think of your own commitments. I am sure I would be happy with you, but could you be happy with me? I don’t even know everything you’d be walking away from.
I know we’re from very different places. Maybe I’m talking complete nonsense and none of this makes sense to you. Maybe I still don’t understand what this will cost you, just like how this all started. If this really can’t work, if you’re sure we can’t be together without ruining you and thereby spoiling what we had, then I will accept that even though I will miss you greatly.
If you have another way, I would gladly hear it. I’m not a sophisticated man when it comes to this kind of thing. God knows I’ve made a mess of it already and I can’t think of another way to make it right.
T.

Sif said to her, "This is a modern Shrailleeni Empire military parade. Like as in this is what they wear, this is what they use. This is it."
