THORNE'S LETTER TO PRINCE YI WRITTEN UNDER CHOUKO'S NAME (LIGHTNING AGE)

[thornsofmalkav]

Your highness,

I need your help.

Noriko-hime and I had a terrible quarrel last night after I returned from being missing. It was mostly my fault. But she stormed out from her room at the end of it. I thought I'd give her time to come back, but she hasn't yet. I'm worried about her, but I can't leave my little brother. He'd been out in the cold and the rain without sleep for days when I brought him back to the embassy and I need to be there when he finally wakes up.

So I need you to go find her for me, find her and make sure she doesn't anything stupid. If you have any regard for her at all, if you honor your imperial families who set up this match... find her. Bring her back if you can.

I've never liked you much, I will not lie about that, and so perhaps I don't have the right to presume upon you for this favor. I don't care. This isn't for me. This is for Nori. Please, if you have any sense of duty, go find your betrothed. Prove to me that I have long been wrong about you.

With utmost sincerity,
Chouko
