[A letter lay sealed at the foot of her bed, delivered by one of leliana's spies no doubt.]
Vhenan:
I write this letter with a heavy heart. I once promised you an explanation, but I could not stay to give you one and no matter how much I wish that it could not be so. More than anything, I wished to tell you everything, but pride would not allow me to do so. To tell you of what I must do would have only given you more questions and caused you more pain.
I realize that you would have preferred I did this in person, but I can not face you and bring myself to walk away from you again. However, I would keep my promise to you, even at the price of your scorn.
I would ask you to hate me, if it made it easier for you.
Know this, vhenan: I have and will forever love you in every way one can love their own heart. It was not the distraction I caused you, but what you did to me. Your love has claimed me. My thoughts were plagued with you at all hours the a day, before and after. The Fade offered no solace. I dreamed only of you. With you by my side, I could not leave. In your good graces, I could stray no further than your arms' reach. I could not resist such a beautiful and marvelous spirit. It was selfish of me, and I brought you pain. For that I will be eternally sorry.
I have a duty I must fulfill, and I could not ask you to follow me. Your path is your own. I do not know if I will ever be able to return to you side, but know I would wish for nothing else. Whatever happens, Atishara-ma.
Ar lath ma, vhenan. Emma uth'na.
[At the end the letter in a beautiful and delicate script is a name.]
