My heart aches to know he will be left so long without a mother. My youngest son-so bright and cheerful, my little Greenleaf-still healing from the loss of the other three, he will wait centuries to see her again. I can't imagine what this is doing to his heart, to have known her for such a short while, but enough to become so attached. And alas! My youngest daughter! She will never truly know her mother, she will only remember brief moments with her. Curse Fate! They are but children! Whom am I to question the Vala? Oh! I know it is not my place! But for my children I'm willing to step out of line! I am so glad the elder two knew her-and that they are now nearly grown. They will be good to their two younger siblings, and will find peace easier-or so I hope. They have grown and aided in the defense of our changing Greenwood, they understand loss, loss of someone so close-after all, they have handled their terrible deaths far better then their mother and I could have ever expected.

Alas! Alas! What is a father to do? I have a kingdom to run, but oh, how I wish to be by my children's sides! Let me go to them, let me remain with them until they find inner peace again! It would not only do their hearts good, but my own as well. Please my beautiful wife, forgive me in advanced for whatever mistakes I make with our precious children. I will do my best, but without you, I am at loss. Loss for so much. Please my wife, stay with us in spirit, I fear what lies ahead! I fear what will become of this house, this kingdom- our four youngest children, now that you are gone. Please my wife keep us in your prayers, we await the day when we can see you again. In Valinor, our family will find peace, we will find them, and we will be together again.
