[ unsurprisingly, there’s a bit of a delay on dextera’s response, though he delivers the letters he’s supposed to as promptly as possible. when he does answer, it’s on a sheet of paper that clearly was supposed to be new, but somehow it’s gotten just a little grimy between its purchase and use as a base. ]
Marthe,
What happened in Achamoth was horrible. I don’t want to talk about it. I’m glad that you understand.
I don’t have many hobbies because I don’t have time for them, but when I was a child, I enjoyed chess. If I could find someone to play with here, I think it would make everything a little easier. But I don’t have a chessboard.
I know someone that bakes. Thank you for the recipe. I’ve never had pistachio paste or orange blossom water. I’d like to know what they taste like.
[ based on the spacing at this point, it’s obvious that dextera had intended to end the letter here and realized it would have been completely insufficient. ]
I live in Godsblood now and there are a lot of things that come through the markets here. Is it the same in Achamoth? What is life like there? Is it different from your home?
