Letter to le Marquis de Cherveuse

[huillaume]

Chére Jacques,

First of all, don’t blame yourself for Arnold death. After all, I could also blame myself, as I recommended him to the Army Adjutant, and probably others could, for other reasons. He knew the risk he took, and he accepted it, and if Lord has recalled him, it’s not up to us to discuss His ways. He will now be with his Mulrelis again…

I found very sweet for your part to ask for the adoption of little Tristesse. In fact, I was thinking on offering myself too, but only as tutor, with her keeping his father’s name and estate, despite raising her as if she was my daughter, in company of Renné, but I’m sure she will be well in your hands, and that you will care for her as well as any child could ask to.

Yours
Huillaume

OOC: It has been pointed out to me (fairly) that anyone who does adopt Tristesse is going to hold the D'Blancheur estate in trust until she's fully grown! As such, this is now an annouceable action. (Normal application, but with a roll off for the highest number. Inf needed is only 2 as it's Arnold's non noble mother deciding).
