Letter 14

𒅆𒊒𒍪𒅆,

Clinging to one's birthright is a horrible instinct.

Even as it fades into memory, the world we were promised rings hollow in my heart. Until the day comes that my heart can be replaced, it will never cease its wails for that which was said to be ours.

I do not know if I work to bury my birthright or reclaim it. One possibility fills me with terror, and I do not know which.

𒁾,

𒍪𒅆
