Dearest Dare,
My coming of age draws on apace, and I find myself considering my future with increasing urgency. I cannot forever rely upon your hospitality; some day soon I must make my way out into the world and find my own place in it. As yet there is no tribe that would suit me - none that would recognise me, some that might even suppress me as an artist. I fear that I am alone in the world, sighted among blind foxes and unable to describe the colours I see.
Meeting Kendra again, setting eyes upon the Lazuli crown inked into her flesh, I felt very young. I felt left behind. I still do.
I must leave. And soon. I begin to outgrow this house, lovely though it is, and Metropolis calls to me through the half-open window. Before that day comes, though, I must ask you for this: help me one more time. Take me to Purple and Mysfit, speak for me, help me acquire the marks I wish to bear. If I am to walk from your house alone, Dare, I wish to do so with pride in all aspects of myself.
I am, as ever, eternally endebted to you for your kindness and generosity thus far, and I hope you will lend me your aid this one last time.
Yours ever
~ sonia.

Dearest Dare,
My plans for a new tribe have been in motion this past week or so. It has become clear to me that no other tribe suits my needs, and thus I must create one for myself. I feel I could lead, if only I were leading the right foxes - am I too proud? Ought I to bow my head and accept what some other tribe has to offer me?
Perhaps Kendra had such thoughts before she created the Lazuli.
And now the hour has come. I have sent out the word, calling dreamers and creators to a spot in the city, and now I must away. This is to be my greatest test - I pray you wish me all the good fortune in the world, for without it at my side I fear worse awaits me than failure.
I hope I shall make you proud.
Yours ever
~ sonia.

Dearest Dare,
There are six of us now, though I have not seen Arith in weeks. I fear for his safety, my poor lost Sanguinius. We are going strong, though, and I regret not telling you sooner.
Hylden is a terror, but she wants to mend. She tries to reach the world, poor dear, and fails so often. I hope that I can help her. Atticus can read, you know? He is as clever as he is good and kind, and I am glad to have him. Teazer - oh, she lightens my heart. She is a treasure, and so good. Arith...gentle Arith, I know not where he wanders. And Romulus, our latest Sanguinite, he knows the theatre and the stage. I would he should teach us of it some day.
The food you leave for us is invaluable. Perhaps one day we shall no longer rely upon your kindness, but until then...I can only thank you. And I do thank you, Dare, from the bottom of my heart.
Ever your faithful
~ sonia.
