Farewell my Kre'oss

Kre'oss,

There is so much I wish to say to you, but the words are simply not forthcoming. It breaks my heart to know that you are leaving, and I may very well have lost you forever. When you are near, I am calm, and my heart fills with love and joy when I look upon you. To watch you wake, and smile at me; to share a simple meal; to be in each other's company without the need for words. All these things may be gone forever, for both of us.

And yet I find myself not dwelling on this loss, but rather treasuring the time we had together. You have brought a change in me I didn't think possible. And for this I am forever in your debt, and will always love you.

I hope, that through these years you face without me, you think fondly of our time together, rather than feel the empty spot beside you where I might have been. I pray, that you allowed that connection I asked of you, to my soul, and my emotions. That you have that gift to carry with you always, to know that my love is sincere. And know that I will be here waiting for you, 20 years from where you are now, if you have need of me. Hold tight to that flicker of hope. I am here, as is my love; to give to you again, if you wish it.

My heart beats for you,
Kohra

Enclosed with the letter is a simple sketch on parchment, of two hands entwined, fingers laced with each other. One is clearly Elvaan, the other could be hume.)
