When I later discovered that you had seen it, I was heartbroken. But I could not reveal myself to you. For my real death has been planned for years, my boy, and it will have come to pass long before this letter reaches you. My true body will play an important part in your fate, so please forgive me for the pain I caused you. My heart crushed as I thought of the fire I’d seen him consumed by, believing he was cast to ruin by dark magic.
