Hello,

My name is Amelia, normally I don't contact people like this because it puts you in danger. But I know you're a very brave knight, and have faced much evil in your lifetime so I know that you'll be okay.

I wanted to let you know that they're doing what I made Happy Fun Land for. The food and stuff will go bad, and to waste, if they don't. And there is no greater crime than for food to spoil when there are starving children in China, when it can be used for the people that have been brought here.

You should go too! I'm sure there's something that you'll enjoy, I tried to fix it so there's something for everyone.

But please don't get mad at them. They've been here for a while, and most of them are good people. There are only a few that have questionable morals.

If I can be of any service, feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,
Amelia

Lady Amelia,

It is unnecessary to contact me, for I had long despaired that I could reach them, and I abhor violence on any level. It is good to know that they are not, in fact, looting, but it does not change the fact that they would have done so anyway.

I shall not accompany them; my needs are simple and as long as there is plenty of food - as I have been told that there is - I am content.

I am not angry, but I am disappointed. They lack any collective vision and act out of sheer selfishness and self-preservation. It saddens me more than angers me.

Peace be with you, child.

Lord Faramir,

I would like to defend them, if I may. If they acted out of selfishness, and self-preservation, there wouldn't be any scrap of food left in this city. Or any clothes, or any other goods that they would see as valuable. There simply isn't any need for money or trade. Here or beyond the door.

All they ask, is for you to help where you can, and that is your payment. That is what entitles you to anything here, or anywhere else, that you desire so long as you are a resident of the island.

Please, don't put the hard work I put into that place to waste.

Amelia.

My lady,

I do not refuse to help - I do not! But there are certain things that I will not do, and this is one. I will toil all day in the fields if that is what they wish; I will lend my knowledge to a government, to counsel. I will fight even, to defend this place, though I hate the sword.

And it will not go to waste, I promise you.

The others will enjoy it a great deal, more so for me not being there.

Dear Sir,

Oh you misread with I wrote. I wasn't saying that you weren't helping. Or that you refused to help. If you don't wish to go and bring the things from that place to this, I don't think anyone should try to force your hand or change your mind.

But you should go and enjoy yourself. This place can be trying at the best of times. And down right horrible at the worst. I want you to have reason to keep your strong moral heart even in the face of horrible things.

Cause bringing people here, like you, is the only thing I can do to protect the others.

~Amelia
