The Lovers

They're a couple of pricks. They covered my wings in magma.
Yeah. Assholes broke my jaw.
The name's Cortado, what's yours?
Ermir.



Hey Mom,

Hope things are going well in the new camp.
Sorry I haven't written to you yet this year, things have been good at school.
Made a few friends, not everyone around here's so bad after all.
Of course, there are still a huge amount of complete jerks.

A girl even invited me to a dance.
Things have been looking up. I'm learning a lot about the people of Esshar.
Turns out, my way of thinking isn't as uncommon around here as I thought at first.
For the first time, I had someone actually help me out when someone was picking a fight.
We both got our butts kicked, but we became buds afterwards.

I'm gonna go on a trip, soon. I've still got so much to figure out.
It's a long road ahead, if I wanna make a difference here.

Wish I could see you, and the rest of the clan.
One day, maybe.

But I don't think it is going to be very soon.

Love,

Cortado
