deathsmajesty(Letter from Elsi Rimheit, daughter of Elder Adila Rimheit, 98th of Harvest Moon, Ava. 717)
Dear Mama,
I miss you! Grandfather says we will go to Thraben soon, but I'd rather you just come home. We went picking blackberries yesterday. Remember last year when I filled two buckets? This year I filled three! Grandfather says you would have been proud of me.
There were wolves outside last night. I could hear them snuffling on the other side of my wall. I was so scared without you. Grandmother tucked me in, but she doesn't make the blankets the way you do.
Please come home soon!
Love,
Elsi

Adila,
We will be in Thraben in less than two days. Elsi has been afflicted. Bitten or wounded by an abomination. The priest has already accused her. We must get her out of Kessig.
I'm bringing you your daughter, and by the power of church, you must protect her.
Your father,
Jorgin Rimheit

Bishop Martyn,
I implore you to stop this madness. There is no proof against my daughter. She is 8 years old! You can not condemn her based on such flimsy circumstances. She is a faithful child of Avacyn. She will grow up to be a servant of the church.
I beg you. Give me time. I will prove Elsi's innocence. Or I will find a way to heal her.
Please. She is my life.

[Master Abbe,
We destroyed the wolf pack that migrated into East Kessig. I supervised the slaughter myself. But the werewolf attacks have not ceased.
You were wrong, Sir:
Like I've said before, the bite of the wolf does not cause the transformation. If you disagree, then prove me wrong.

Elder Rimheit,
It is with a heavy heart that I write these words. As you know, our crusade against the wolf kind continues unabated, and in any war sacrifices must be made.
Elsi could not be saved. Just as the mother must sacrifice her son on the field of battle, you must also understand that your daughter is a casualty in a war that will decide the fate of humanity. Your contribution will not be forgotten.

[Analise,
The geist of the little girl is back. She keeps crying for her mother, Adila. I cannot bear her sadness.
Is there a blessing you can say? Or a spell that you can speak with her? I will do anything to help her find peace in death.

Bishop Martyn,
I have given our discussion careful consideration. While I appreciate your concerns, I am resolved to accept the position of parish priest in North Kessig. Given the recent tragedy in my family, I am inclined to return to the province of my birth and the place where my family takes their Blessed Sleep.
Hardship has not lessened my faith. I assure you that the death of my daughter will not affect my service to Avacyn. In fact, I now understand the church in a way I never did before.

Priest of Kessig
