Book of Ethers IV

Sage,

how is Mary? 

She hasn't left home before.

All is well, I hope?

I am commissioned to paint

at the fair again this year!

Ty offers their aid,

but I would rather they paint

than pick up a sword.

The Burgesses no longer

threaten us, like Elvie said.

Now that you are home,

where are you spending your time

and clearing your mind?

You are a caring woman,

but do not forget yourself!

Watch each other's backs.

We survived a strange ordeal

at the fair last year.

Thank you for treating Mary

like she's your family,

Rose
