*this letter is written on a fine, perfumed parchment with black ink in Westron and it is addressed to Miss Cedwyn and Miss Ellae of Prancing Pony*
Dear Cedwyn and Ellae,
I hope you both are well. I believe by now you have noticed my absence and perhaps Master Butterbur has said something. I did tell him the reason why I left, but asked not to tell anyone.
I hope two are not angry at me. As Cedwyn's wedding were on the way, I did not wish to ruin the mood by giving bad news. Thus I sent this letter to explain everything.
As Ellae might know, I was not in terms with my parents. However, I reunited with my them last year, after years of not being in any kind of contact with them. I learned that they were alive, but lost their home and valuables, living at a friend's house. But before the winter came, I received bad news from home. My father had gotten gravely ill. A month later, just around Jule, he had passed away. My mother begged me to return back home and thus I began planning my journey back in secret. I did tell about to Celnessyn, however.
Currently I am in a tavern, possibly in the halfway to Rohan. The weather has not been on my side and traveling has been slow. I hope to continue my journey soon.
I will be writing to you again soon, perhaps when I reach Rohan.
With love,
Viljawyn
