[VERY backdated. Written not long after Misha's suggestion.]
[Daniel W.]Dear Daniel,
Misha tells me you are on a journey of self improvement, and so I’d like to send you my best wishes for your success. I hope my letter finds you well as it leaves me at present. I also hope that you will not be away and on your own for too long. I feel we haven’t had many opportunities to talk before you left, and I regret that, as I do enjoy talking with you and appreciate your interest in my music.
Life in Repose has been carrying on with it's usual strangeness, though I doubt that is anything anyone would miss, so I’ll tell you of the more normal goings on instead. I’ve worked on another production by Ren Solitaire. It was a musical this time, as well as a comedy;
Spamalot. The humor was quite lost on me, it all seemed rather nonsensical, but being able to lose myself in the challenge of getting the music side of it all together was strangely exciting, albeit stressful.
In general, though, I have not been as stressed as I was before. You might think me a new person when we meet again. I often feel like one. I suppose that is the good being in love will do. I feel guilty, however, feeling happy when my friends are going through difficult times. I assume you’ve heard what happened to Holly? Noah told me he had been shot during an incident at the facility. He recovered, but that same incident has caused much trouble for my roommate, Adrian March. It is all shrouded in mystery, I know very little of what happened, only that Adrian is now incarcerated at the facility due to his involvement. It is terribly frustrating not to be able to do anything about it.
Ah, I said I wasn’t going to write about Repose’s strangeness, but it seems impossible to avoid doing so when it is threaded through everything that happens here. Wherever you are, enjoy being free of it! Unless you are missing it? Either way, I hope to see you again soon.
Yours, Dietre Abendroth
PS: Forgive me if this letter lacks focus, I’ve not written very many in my life. I promise to do better in my next, should you wish for me to write another.
