A Bloodstained Envelope

My Emily,$b$bA few short days ago, we broke camp in this Light-forsaken place, operating under the King's orders to return home. My heart was light despite my bleak surroundings, for I knew that after the frigid trek to the shore and long, grueling voyage, I would find solace in your arms.$b$bWe reached the shoreline today to find our ships, our means of return, nothing more than charred husks; we cannot leave, and have no choice but to press on into the heart of this abysmal wasteland.$b$bI have gone to the very end of the world to keep you safe, Emily... and now... I wish with all my being that I had remained in Lordaeron with you.$b$bThoughts of you fill my every waking moment. You are my warmth in this frozen land, beloved, and no one can take that from me.$b$bMaxwell
