[By way of a pretty Orlesian maid, a small package and a sealed letter are delivered to Kirkwall to be put directly into Sina's hands. The maid also brings with her a bouquet of greenhouse lilies, kept fresh by some method of Circle enchantment.
Within the package are small, but simple treats: dried exotic fruits, sugared nuts, chocolate, one very sturdy brandy. That last is to help ease the pain when it becomes unbearable.
However, tucked away with the utmost care are two less expected care package items: a silver hairbrush and a silk ribbon embroidered with daisies.]
My dear Sina,
I would ask if you were well, but I know full well you are not. It grieves me greatly to think that soon you shall leave us. Thedas shall be a darker place that day, though left richer for your presence.
I have suffered many losses through the years, my beloved Bastien the most recently. But I think yours shall be the hardest. You do not know the peace and happiness you brought me the day I tended your hair for you. It brought to memory younger days with a cherished friend, as I now cherish you. Though you too leave us behind, go in the knowledge that I shall always remember you and that moment.
Though I know not the traditions of your people, I have arranged for your name to be sung in remembrance at the Chantry of Montsimmard for the next century. I pray this does not offend.
