Your Majesty,
Can I even still call you Pia? Is that even proper? I do not even know what it means to be sister to the Queen. You will have to sit me down and educate me, for I am most certainly lacking. It's not that I never thought you'd be Queen, my dearest heart, but more that I never imagined that you would get everything we've ever wished for in such sad circumstances. If only the kingdom wasn't so damaged, maybe I would not feel so lost. And had I not been gone for so long, perhaps I would feel better too.
I miss you, my Pia. I worry about you and fret if you are eating enough (although I should never have to worry with you as Queen now). I worry if you are happy or if you are miserable in your new role. I know you have always been made for the spotlight, sister. But I can't help but worry about you with the Creed still out there. Perhaps being royal and noble and rich is not always a good thing.
As I write this, I am for home in the morning. Prince Vangelis is allowing me to use one of his birds to make sure this beats me there. Father said that I am to return to our home in Serenn, for the planning for Theo's wedding cannot wait much longer. It seems as if both the bride and groom are anxious to be married, and I cannot blame them. I too am anxious to be settled, and perhaps as soon as the birth and wedding have passed, I may find myself with a husband of my own.
Sweet Pea, I must admit that as happy as I am to be coming home, I shall miss Colchis and the people here. I shall tell you all about it when we are finally reunited, but for now, all I shall say is that they have wormed their way into my heart and I hope that I am lucky enough to return one day to see it again.
I look forward to seeing you soon, sweet sister. You must know that, even if you were not my sovereign now, I would be at your side, no matter what you need. Please write to me and let me know how things are going. And should you require your big sister for anything at all, know that I will be there with bells on my feet
You fondest subject,
Selene
