Dear Bass. Dear Fret.
I’ve tried to write this letter a couple times, but I haven’t really gotten to put the words down on paper right. I’m going to try. Bear with me.

I think the next time I see you, I’ll look different. It doesn’t mean I won’t still find a way to see you. Might just be a bird. But I made you a promise, and I intend to keep it. That’s the funny thing about being dead: time works a little differently for us. I think the Raven Queen might let me come in and fuck up someone who’s fucked up your lives - your world - a little if it falls under her sacraments, and I intend to make good on it.

You’re such a good kid, and I’ve enjoyed every second we’ve gotten to spend together. You’ve got such a big heart, and it does me good to just hang out with you. Makes me feel like a big kid, myself. Part of why I got so attached. But I think part of it is that I see a part of me in you, too - maybe saw it the most when you broke down on us after Metie died. Feeling numb like that is so hard to get past, but I believe in you. I know you’ll keep moving forward. Just try not to forget about yourself in the process, either - you’re just as important. You matter just as much.

Emet’s about ready to tear your fucking world apart to make sure you’re safe. I don’t know what I can do, but I can tell you that I’m gonna keep that promise, and we’re gonna see each other again. No matter how, we’ll find a way. You’ve got a whole bright fucking world to teach me about. I want you to do me a favor, and keep that big heart of yours the way it is, alright? Keep loving the people in your life as much as you do. Keep being a light. And when you don’t feel like being one anymore, then fucking tell someone, and let them help you. Stubborn.

You’re like family to me, kid. I’ll keep a piece of you with me always - and I’ll be watching. I’ll be around. Keep an eye on Riff. And - on Emet, too. If I can’t make it right away. He’s gonna need it.

We love you.

I love you.

I’ll see you soon. Keep an eye out for ravens.
Love, Vax’ildan.
PS: Chinatsu has bad taste.
