I

Beloved Linette,

I am writing to let you know that i did indeed receive your card. It was a much needed pick-me-up in the midst of these trying times. It can get especially lonesome out here, particularly since you returned to your estate. How is everything back at home? Your father, (sorry, his Lordship) hired a new valet recently, if I'm not mistaken. How is he settling in? Everything is normal here, aside from Charlie. He's been acting a bit strange as of late. He misses you too, but not nearly as much as me. Most evenings, I spend my time looking up at the moon with you in mind. The eventide hours remind me much of you, actually. The soft light emitted by the moon and the stars is akin to the brightness that resides in your eyes. The night sky is a thing of beauty, definitely. But each time I chart polaris my mind is drawn to you, and how the universe itself would marvel at your allure. Perhaps that's just the hopeless romantic in me. I suppose I should end this letter off, as I'm sure you have many things to attend to, and as do I.

With endless love,

Esme
