There is much I wish to say, but this scrap must suffice.
You have helped me to confront my fear of not measuring up to the duties of a Seeress, and taught me that failure isn't fatal. You have given me so much that I cannot possibly describe the full extent of my gratitude on this parchment.
My fate was chosen long ago. The Visions make it clear what I have to do, what I have done. You must move on, but as the philosopher Venetius remarked, forgetting is painful. I’m sorry.
As I write this, we’re preparing for the battle ahead. I will miss the fraternal bond we shared; Pallimachus for his faulty spells, and Callixtus for his joie de vivre. You have been the best of companions.
This farm is where our story began. It’s special to me and the reason why I have left this note here. You once shared with me your dream to settle on a farm with your daughter. Attached to this letter is a deed for the property and its surrounding lands, in short, it is yours now.
Fashion a new life for yourself, and furbish it with new and happier memories. I await you now from the Eternal Shore. When your time comes, we will be reunited.

Dearest Ernst,
There is much I wish to say, but this scrap must suffice.
You have helped me to confront my fear of not measuring up to the duties of a Seeress, and taught me that failure isn't fatal. You have given me so much that I cannot possibly describe the full extent of my gratitude on this parchment.
My fate was chosen long ago. The Visions make it clear what I have to do, what I have done. You must move on, but as the philosopher Venetius remarked, forgetting is painful. I’m sorry.
As I write this, we’re preparing for the battle ahead. I will miss the fraternal bond we shared; Pallimachus for his faulty spells, and Callixtus for his joie de vivre. You have been the best of companions.
This farm is where our story began. It’s special to me and the reason why I have left this note here. You once shared with me your dream to settle on a farm with your daughter. Attached to this letter is a deed for the property and its surrounding lands, in short, it is yours now.
Fashion a new life for yourself, and furbish it with new and happier memories. I await you now from the Eternal Shore. When your time comes, we will be reunited.
Ah, I am running out of space…
Gods keep you my love,
Isilmë
