Harper,
As you know, I grew up in the Hollowed Grounds. The weather used to be a matter of great concern to my family as they were farmers, and to me a sunny day used to mean being trapped indoors. I can't tell you how wonderful it is to be free from such limitations. To say that heat doesn't bother me would be an understatement; my only concern these days is the coming Deepfrost. Did you know I haven't spent a single LongNight here since the barrier fell? But this year I might have to... I hope that the winter won't be too harsh, though who can say.
I was sorry to read about your son's injury, and the difficulties you two have experienced! It must be a difficult balance, isn't it, between caring for a child and caring for yourself? If you ever want someone to talk to who won't judge, know that I would think of it as a priviledge and never a burden. Nor do I feel compelled to always keep smiling - I was allowed to remove that kind of mask with you in the past, and I would be honored to return the favor whenever you need a friend.
Please do impose on me! So much bad happened over the past season that it couldn't fit in a letter. Can I look forward to tell you all about it soon?
I'll suggest some dates below, but you're honestly welcome any time, whenever you're passing by.
Sincerely,
Maea
