Our Condolences 8

Our Condolences
eighth letter


21st day of Nurthir, 949

Dearest Angel,

    I know you may not have many chances to write at the front, but I am always willing to help as much as I can from here. Even if the only thing I can do is listen. I'll take an extra offering to Tutala's temple and make an extra prayer for your safety tomorrow. With how often I've been going I've learned a lot about the other people that go regularly. Most of them are praying for loved ones in the war, but there are a few Elders who are there to pray for everyone else. When little Albert comes with me he watches the others in the room. He stays close to me and keeps quiet. Even after we leave he remains quiet and subdued. I don't like seeing him like that so I try to take him when there are as few people as possible. That is becoming harder, as there have been more people at the temple lately. There are some days when there are so many people that I can hardly get in the door. I suspect you are not the only ones being sent to the front, but at least I can say that those of us here have not forgotten about those who are fighting.

    Don't worry about us, Albert and I are doing what we can. Know that little Albert and I think of you daily, and stay strong.

    Lovingly,

                Sam
