My prince,



It would be most amusing to slide notes to each other from across the table, shall it not? Although I fear many may think us out of our minds, but I have always found a sense of camraderie with a way with words. Tis much easier to navigate then societal nuances, facial expressions and subtle hints.



I fear I have missed you too, my prince. There is nothing to forgive, for I find now that I have been introduced to you, all the callers to our household to see myself and my sisters fade in comparision to you. It would very much delight me to attend your party, and I am honored to receive the invitation. My father has approved of my going. Will I be too bold as to speak of seeing you again when my carriage delivers me to the doorstep of your residences, one week hence on the evening of the occasion you speak of?



You must be well versed in the duties of a crown prince then, my prince, for how often you take upon your brother's jobs. Tis a joy to hear you are close for I cannot say the same of myself to all of my siblings. I am close to my sisters Thea and Nethis, however my younger brother Dysius is an anomaly to be figured out. We try to help him,but I fear he may reject our help.



I am glad to hear your sister is under her brother's tutelage. I have also been of the opinion that while we have men to protect us, the womanfolk should have some sort of proficiency with a weapon. Although, I cannot say the same of myself. My father has very traditional views, and as such the only weapon my sisters and I have touched is a meat knife for mealtimes.



I am anxious to see you again, my prince, and await our reunion at the function at your residence. Until then, I do hope the Gods will watch over you.


Yours,



Evras of Thanasi
