Dearest Mumsy,
Thank you for the overcoat you sent, it shall surely come in handy.
I am healthy and in full strength, never worry.
We’ve awful troubles at the manor. Our count’s taken ill with a pained soul. Some dratted witcher came into his woods and butchered his pet. This pet was no hound or even a hind, but – get this – a basilisk! So it should not have come as a great surprise a witcher did it in, though it was odd he had help, from some Reavers, they were called.
The count walks around, head hung, crying all the while, and everyone at the manor’s in a sort of mourning. I know, you’ll say who’s ever heard of mourning a monster, but thing is, a man in pain’s a man in pain, it hurts the heart to watch, whatever his reason. I hope he gets it together soon, for no one’s looking after the estate’s affairs.
I send you warm embraces and hope you remember if things ever get bad where you’re at, just come join me, I’ve already arranged a position for you with Count di Salvaress, and a nice one, too, indoors. He’s a good man and even honest, for a count and an eccentric. I hope he shakes off these doldrums and will keep his word, if it comes to it.
Big Kisses, Your Eddie
