My Lady. If there is one thing which I may try to make clear to you tonight, it is that you bear no more responsibility for their behavior than you bear for my own. It is not wrong for you to feel those other things which you feel while this is happening. Of anyone, you have ever deserved happiness and there is no denying it because you think that you do not feel bad enough.

Perhaps there is a way yet to fix these things. We will look together and for you, I will do whatever is most needed in order that we may set them right. You are owed this much and should not need to feel such shame for these things other people did.

I hardly think that running away from instant messenger and never signing on again is going to change that. You take too much blame upon yourself for those things that they all said today both inside the window and outside of it. That such things happen is not your fault nor within your control.

I am certain that she does not hate you for it.

You have yet to claim your gift from me also. When you would like to do that, let me know.

Sir knight,

Please tell your mun that I do not hold her accountable for last night -- indeed, the cost of letting others speak freely is sometimes we don't like what they say. I have never held her responsible for the words and actions of other people, any more than she holds me. I made a decision I felt would be best for my sanity and my desire to maintain order without confining or restricting people. I am far from upset with her. If anything, I am upset with myself, because I continue to betray those who live with me for the sake of common peace, which grows increasingly hard to find.

Perhaps happiness is not the highest good and I made a rash or selfish decision, but I am tired of knowing if Elboron stayed he would never be happy because he does not have my perseverance in the face of ill will. At least now that he has gone out into space the potential of him forgetting what he is and what he cannot have has increased. If he never returned I would manage his absence well enough, I lived without his company so long it is nothing I find insurmountable. He is not the first person to leave, nor will he be the last, who did so because I requested it of him.

Please reassure your mun I continue to hold her as my dearest friend and with all affection and if she never signed on to AIM again I would become distressed and start bombarding her house with phonecalls until I had convinced her to come back online as I would miss her too much to manage without her.

- Kari
