My dearest love-
Today was a beautiful day, wasn't it? I never suspected it to end like this.
Now of all times.
They let me choose one person to tell my secret to. Not two people, just one person. There can be only one person who heard those words leave my lips.
Sadly, dearest, I didn't choose you.
I couldn't.
Who would take care of the other child?
If I chose you, the children would be on their own.
By now, I suspect that you know who I chose. Him, our eldest child. I could trust him. You would've begged me to stay, but I have to go, They are waiting for me.
I made a promise with Them, when I was a very young girl, before I met you, before I knew anything. I was to give Them service, when They called me, when I was needed.
That is now, and I have to go, I have to leave. I don't want to, but otherwise They will hunt me down and cut off all of my ties to the world here. That would be you, my love, my family and my friends.
I have to leave, They are calling me to my homeland.
I really want to stay, but I just can't.
I want to take you all, and I would if I could.
Love, S
