AL002 A new day, A new family plot
Oct 09, 2008#3
Your father is gone, and you are not surprised to find out he was gone before sunrise on whatever business drives the man. You don't hear any of his dogs, so you imagine he has them with him. That usually means hunting.
Fiona has left you a note, that was delivered with your breakfast.
She wrote:
Dearest Aria,
I am so pleased to see you are doing well. You sleep now, but the restoration seems more than complete.
I can hardly begin to tell you how glad I am that we were able to convince your father to take you and Epee across the Pattern. The energies of the Primal Order can not be denied, and it confirmed what I told you. It was your blood that pulled you through. It was the same element in your blood that will have been activated within Epee now making her a part of your reality.
This may not make sense to you at the moment. But I will be glad to explain it in further detail if you like. You are beloved to all of us Aria, and like your name, you are music to this family. We could not suffer your loss. Please think of us often, and if you should ever be in any need, do not hesitate. Your father informed me that Brand was able to get you there in a timely fashion before your fathers and your energies were exhausted. I know his intentions mirror my own, in wanting to be there for you.
What is important to one of us, should be important to us all. Being able to save Epee became important to us, because it affected you. You are far from a little girl, though it appears your father may not yet see that. I dare say all men have these blinders permanently affixed. Should you, or your precious pet, need anything, even if it is just to chat. Please contact me. I am sending you my trump, from my own deck. Care for it, and return it when you get your own replacement. Give your father my best.
May you dwell forever in Amber,
Aunt Fiona
