Lady Covaya,

It is truly a blessing and joy to hear from you after so long. It pleases me to hear that you and your family are doing well and there is no need for apologies.

I look forward to hearing more about young Kaevia, I expect her to be growing stronger and wiser each day.

The year has gone by slowly, far too slowly until just recently.

I have reclaimed my title as Matriarch to my House, my numbers increasing with each passing moon. It has kept me extremely busy and of course the widespread whispers and conversations hold my mind in wandering. I believe I have done well in rising.

I am unsure of the relationship between Tralestia and Rionash, but as the two came to me separately, I can only imagine things are not well between the two. Though Tralestia seems to still hold him as Commander, she still claims the titles to the Battalion. Until just nights ago, that is.

She came to me with the documents and claims, handing the Vanguard over to me and my holdings. I have yet to understand her reasoning behind this, though surely in time I will learn more of her goals.

Rionash is as he ever was, but I cannot tell if he will be remaining with us for long. The history between the four of us, Damon, Tralestia, myself and he covers a large expanse of emotions for all of us. It must still affect him, but he carries a smile and is all the respectful lately with his return.

Speaking of Damon, he has been missing up until recently as well. It warms my heart to have him return to my side.

In response to your inquiry, Apex has returned and will remain what it always has been simply under new leader and ownership. I would love to have you return with Alucieus, I have missed the two of you terribly and could use both of your experience and expertise as always.

I look forward to seeing you, once you arrive in the city.

With care,

Elenaris Eventide
