Calypso,
I miss you. I wish I could be with you. But sadly, there is the magic of the gods forcing us apart. I will find a way. I promise.

Calypso,
They say it's a lost cause... I don't believe them. They all tell me to forget it, to forget you, but I cannot. They do not believe me when I tell them it is true love. They say I am mistaken. Even Percy. He says he's gotten over you. That you don't really matter to him anymore. But I'm pretty sure he still has some of your moonlace growing. Do you miss him sometimes? I know you love me, just as I love you, but do you ever get over past heroes? I would imagine if you hear of their passing, you might give up, but what about those still alive? Do you wait in hope for each one? Or is it just me? Or have you given up on me, too, after all this time, with still nothing?
-Leo
Calypso,
Are you getting my letters? I don't know of any other way to get them to you, so I send them to Hermes and throw a couple extra offerings at meals and hope that persuades him. I haven't heard back from you. Is Hermes not getting the letters to you, or is he not letting any letters come back? Are you available to Iris-Message, or have the gods restricted that, too?
-Leo
Leo,
I read your letters, I promise. The problem is that I am forbidden all contact with the mortal world, unless it is another hero sent to punish me further. It is part of my punishment. I am sorry. I write back to every single letter I receive. But they never get sent.
To answer your questions, I do sometimes pine over heroes who have come and gone. Usually when I meet someone new, though, I get over the last one. I currently have eyes only for you, Leo. Though I am happy to hear some of my island was planted elsewhere. I have not given up hope! Stay strong, and keep working. I await your return.
I am sorry to say you will not hear from me soon, but do not fret! Keep working, always. The only reason you are finally hearing from me is because I have pleaded with Hermes, and, if you are reading this, he has luckily relented. I hope to see you soon, though, so we may talk in person.
-Calypso
Calypso,
Thank you! You lifted my spirits and helped me continue! Thanks. I'm glad you read these. It makes me feel closer to you. I'll keep trying. Hopefully one day, we will be reunited.
-Leo
