LETTER SIX

My Beloved Ethany,

The isolation is killing me. The echoes and howling across this massive mountain range remind me daily of our remote location. It has been so long since I have heard your voice. I sometimes believe I hear it on the wind. I have not heard from you in so long and I believe I may go mad. I am tormented by the lack of any news…especially of the war. But I can feel it being waged upon our lands.

The supply wagons have become less frequent, and it forces us to rely on the wood lore of the Kutollum combined with our hunting skills to stay fed. Frost berries may fill a belly but do not satisfy for long. However, it’s not the food that I miss so much as the news.
