Message:
If the Maker wills it, you have received this letter. Oh sweet reader, how my heart weeps. I pray this reaches you if only for the glimmering hope of conversation. Yet I fear your note in return may never reach me.
Have you seen him, dear reader? How fairs my husband? My dear, sweet Sariel? Oh Maker keep him safe.. I was foolish, reader.. I left him.. My light, my soul.. how it kills me to be apart from him. How my heart shatters.. I miss him so.. If only to hold his hand in mine once more, to see his smile, to hear his voice. ..My heart..! I pray he forgives me one day.. I did it for him reader.. Hades promised him sight. My husband, my dearest Sariel.. How many nights he wept.. His hands upon my cheeks as he sobbed, begging me to smile.. ''The light of your smile will help me to see.'' his words as he cried.. and those words broke my heart.
Hades promised him sight, dear reader. A fruit from Persephone's garden was to restore his eyes. But I was lied to sweet reader.. I am trapped and I cannot make it home. My heart breaks without my Sariel.. how long to be once again in his arms.
Beloved Queen of the stars.. Do you recognize my name..? Septentrio.. my name holds seven of yours.. The seven stars of the Ursa Major, my Queen.. Your love and kindness inspires all that I do. To hold part of you in my name causes my heart to soar. But at this dark hour, it is all I can do not to weep. Dearest Queen of the stars..? Keep my love safe..? I beg of you, please. Keep him safe..
Should Hades permit, and the Marker allow.. May this letter reach you, and a token of my thanks.

Misa blinked, trying to think. Where had she heard that name before..? Oh! She was praying for him just a few hours ago. Silly Misa, always forgetting important things. Frowning thoughtfully, she thought of what she could do to help these two. There was always the option of journeying to Hell to save the poor creature. Heh, Heaven in Hell. Sparing a moment to chuckle lightly, she kept reading.
"I do recognize your name.. thank you astronomy research." she said aloud, probably making the other occupants of the palace nearby look at her strangely. Oh well, they all thought she was crazy anyways. "Of course I'll keep him safe. Safe is the best thing he is right now. And hey, I'll even get you out if you want! Shouldn't be too hard. I'll just have a little chat with Hades.. that butthead owes me a shopping trip anyhow.~"
Giggling, she skipped off to write a return letter, knowing her star would know just what to do with it. After sending it off, sequesters herself in her room, packing up things she would need for the big and totally epic journey ahead. She could handle this by herself. If not, there was always a way out. You just had to be smart enough to find it.~
((Ahhhhh, another one to make me tear up. Thanks anon. <3))
