Separation to Hella

Hella,   You speak better than you write, thankfully. If I'd had a library when teaching you this wouldn't have been a problem! I'm sure Alwen and Tira will set you up with all the books you need.   I actually think that leaning on Kadia's elvish might make it more difficult for you; try to work on the simplest of structures and words before you embark on recreating her prose. Like Tira she can be nigh incomprehensible when communicating a simple idea. Appropriate for an Imperial Sorceress in service during the War of Fire (or the noble-born senior apprentice of a Hand of the Empress) but not a good place to start when refining your grasp of the written word. Get Alder or Knotrael to help you. They write like normal people.   Kadia has her own memories of someone very different from the Empress I know. I understand her fear and it is not unfounded even if I know it to be unneeded.   I don't know what the Empress will want from either of you but I do know that even if you are separate you will remain sisters and support one another. I have found myself entangled in a similar way with another ancient Osyr but my companion steps out of me and into her own body much of the time before sheltering in me again. I feel her presence just as much when she is physically beside me as when she is within my heart.   I will be in Dreamfall within the month. I'll see you before you cross.   Heiassa
