Hestia, my dear,

Thank you for coming. The world changes, but I find comfort in the idea that you are always where I expect you to be—chasing after me, always a step or two behind.

I am grieved that I cannot wait for you, be there with you, right where it all began. Ah, the memories. How young we were. How lovely you were, and how innocent. Have you visited your cell? I have. There are still manacles attached to the wall in there. I have walked all over this house, remembering. The bloodstains still color the cracks in the marble in the solar hearth, did you notice?

Our games have been magnificent. I have always felt a strong sense of pride in you, even when you enraged me. I feel it now, even as the curtains to our drama draw to a close. I admit that my victory will have a hollow quality, without you to witness it.

But alas, I must bid you . . .

Adieu,

M
