Battle Scars

Winter and Summer

Dear Inner Circle,

Its cold. Its freezing like hell. Though, this does give me the opportunity to dress up in fancy, sexy coats that I have to admit, looks really good. I love winter clothes. I am staying in some town which is near the main city, I think. Anyway, I had an ice cone after so long and it tasted so satisfying. The inn I am staying at has a few more people living. I spent my afternoon playing in the snow with these two children who surprisingly weren't as annoying as you would expect kids to be. Later, after warming myself up a bit I went out alone due to the much-needed urge to use my power. .... I came face to face with a bear. Like a big, huge, enormous bear- it looked so intimidating. I was scared I was going to be mauled by the bear but then I remembered I am a Fae and the bear started whimpering. Poor creature had a thorn stuck in his paw. Classic. Of course, I helped and then spent the evening making a fire while the bear whom I named Ollie contentedly enjoyed the flames. Ollie abandoned me a bit later though.

Currently, as I write this, I am having one of the inn's famous drink... its quite sweet but not that sweet that it becomes puke-ish. I am planning to stay here for a few more days, explore the area maybe shop a bit before leaving for Summer. I wish I could have visited Autumn too.... Mike would've loved it. I will probably hitchhike with someone again... or rent a cart after making sure that the animal pulling it is not mistreated- I hate that it's the only means of transportation available here. When I come back to Velaris, I am going to start selling bicycles- centuries and you all still have not innovated... (sighs)

Anyway, I am going to go back to my book.

How are you all though? I heard Cassian won a spar against Rhys? Expected better from a High Lord. And Mor? Stop buying clothes to upgrade my closet in Velaris! Send them to me instead! Feyre, thanks for the muffins, did you make it?

Your traveller friend,

Azzie,

I am very much drunk while writing this letter while sitting in my room. Ok, maybe not that drunk but drunk enough. This reminds me, I have never been wasted like ever. You and I are drinking together soon for I need someone to look after me like you do when Cass and Mor get wasted. I will return the favour, promise.

On another note, did Bri really throw her spoon at a customer? I wish I would've been there to see it. Would have been a wonderful sight. She must've been really pissed off...

I saw this bat last night. It looked as if it was brooding... reminding me of you. Like when you pout or when we all give you a headache. I bought something while we were travelling... something that reminded me of you.... It's a small miniature of a bat.

Dear Eve,

The bat you sent does look like Az! Its perfect. He is scowling at me as I write this letter. I beat him in the ring today, maybe that's why. But you never know with the brooding Spymaster. He needs to let loose. Rhysie and I believe he is missing someone.... You. I bet fifty gold marks on you two, don't let me down.

How is Summer? You haven't written to us in a week now, everything alright? My guess is you are just having too much fun and forgot all about your ancient and wise friends. Write soon, will you? I have to spar with Az again and I would very much like my body to be intact.

Mor is sending the clothes she bought by the way, that's why the package accompanying is so heavy. Amren wants you to give the small mini package that I have attached to Varian... I tried asking what it is and received a death glare.

Feyre wants to know when will you be back, so do we all. Take care, my favourite Ice and Fire wielding friend.

Cass

Dear Cass,

Only fifty? I am disappointed and hurt. I hope Azriel beats your ass.

And yes, I am in Summer. Unlike you, I did not snoop around but, tell Amren I will give the package tomorrow as I am too tired right now. Thanks Mor for the dresses by the way. They are so cute and drop dead gorgeous! Tell Feyre I don't know when I will be back either, and that's the fun of it.

Inner Circle,

Stop worrying- you all do that way too much. I am fine and having fun. I will write again after a week or so, so don't lose your minds over it... however hard that may be ;) Summer is cool. I like it. I will arrive to Adriata' main hub tomorrow- only about half a mile's journey is left but I am too sleepy to continue.

Eve

Happy reading

XOXO,

the amazing author whose exams got over today!! and gods, it was so satisfying
