You spineless eel
Treacherous hagfish
Monkfish faced buffoon
Two faced Fanfin seadevil
Go jump in a rift
My Dearest Achilles,
Words cannot express the great emotion I experienced when I learned that you, my old friend, were in Kirkwall looking for me. I would that it gave me joy to hear of your survival of the attack on Coralan and I do wish that you had come yourself to visit my bed the other night, instead of insulting me with a visit from uncouth vagrants.
I have pondered long what could have possibly possessed you to send strangers to my bed in the night, and speculated about what might have kept you away: Has your face been maimed and you fear showing it to me, your old friend? Did Belen rip off your arms finally and you cannot fight me? Perchance you have only one leg now and were simply inviting me to fight you in the river, one warrior to another. Or perhaps you hit your head in the battle of Coralan,and have forgotten your honor and our history.
I had hoped, when I did not see you in the throne room, that perhaps you had not been party to your father’s treachery. A vain hope, obviously, since you long ago embraced madness. For what else could it be but madness? For a skilled and intelligent male such as yourself to be party to such egregious treachery? It has cost you something integral since clever you, in addition to having the misfortune of losing me twice in your life, also lost--LOST--one of the greatest Heirlooms of Anemora.
I fear this is only the beginning and I must, out of respect for whatever love was between us once, beg you to reconsider your path. I could yet be persuaded to spare your life should you come to your senses and join our cause.
Barring any such restoration, you false-tongued seadevil, I wish to warn you that should I or one of my companions offer you the chance to negotiate, you should take it. It will not be offered you again and your alternative is gruesome and final. The sea will not accept you.
Cordially,
Damaris Spindrift, daughter of Deimos Spindrift, son of Mattmos Spindrift, son of Grimnos Sprindrift, descended from the Peerless Pavlos Spindrift, First Guardian of the Great Rift
