Kamaria,

You will like who I have found in the city. Her voice is clear, both in tone and message. One of this new set of musicians playing at being older than they are -- they grow like weeds here, all on top of each other in this neighborhood, then spilling out across the rest of the country. Given time, I’m sure maybe even Viktoriya will see one she likes.

Her name is Bridget, but I have known that for some months now. She hadn’t noticed me until this, which is good for us both. Most nights I have seen her she is singing background for some other personality, consigned to forgettable harmonies. There is a record of her own she made that I am sending with this letter. It is tempting, as I am sure you know, to take her in only halfway to start, but I do not wish to waste any more time than I need to. You must understand, you have Childer of your own, how you know when you hear them that they’ll be yours.

Do not tell me again about the issues here. I know them well enough, and I won’t be spending any time in their courts. When I’m able, when we are able, we’ll leave the city. I refuse to be beholden to asking permission to save a voice from anyone other than my Sisters.

As always, you may advise me against this, and I will pretend to listen.

I’m sure we will both see you soon.

Your Sister,
Lorelai
