15th Letter; text

[The text appears handwritten on those NVs that can process it as such: elegant, slightly stylized, beautiful.]

Another birthday come and gone. It's difficult to believe.

At times like this it's hard not to look backward at all of the things you have left behind coming here, to be buried in bittersweet thoughts of what could have been.

For new arrivals, I know it must be difficult to face. There is a great deal of help out here at the Newcomer Community Center, but the best advice I can give is to put one foot in front of the other. In August, I will have lived in Siren's Port for two years.

I consider it my home now. I know for some it will never be home, and I understand why that is. But I hope if it cannot be your home, that we newcomers can still become your second family. The company is what makes this city bearable.

Take care, my friends. My family.

Thank you, Monsieur Creed. Another successful year here is surely worth celebrating.

Another year. It is truly hard to believe, but, then, life after death is also hard to believe.

[Smirks.] Who would have imagined that the deceased would rise in power, here?

I don't know about you, but I'm very much alive.

[rapturescreed]

So am I.

So long as you're signing my paychecks, you'd better be! [Laughing. And of course he wants you alive for all those other reasons, too.]

[rapturescreed]

Paychecks and bonuses, of course. [Chuckles.] And perhaps a card or two.
