Father,

Thank you again for your words of advice, it was good indeed to see you but most of all I am very gratefull for your wisdom. I now know what I must do and my heart is truely glad.

It has been a month since I last written, so it is about time I wrote some more. My pregnancy seems to be progressing well. Soon I shall see a healer again, to make sure.

Gwenbur is sat on the bed at home in Falathlorn, a single candle illuminating the area.

A fair figure stood, her posture proud and hands clasped, as she
waited patiently. Not far from her footing knelt another maiden,
preparing rows of bundled rations.

“Orgaladhad...”

“So soon?”

“Indeed Naneth.”
