[Peregrine's letter also comes attached to a jacket! There's a button messily sewn on -- the same with a bit of deer skin!]

Peregrine,

I know what you are thinking now. No matter how much I might insist otherwise before my demise, you will no doubt consider the curse we discussed. I have not been able to stop thinking about it myself since I came to my senses. However, in these last few moments, I have been able to determine one thing.

Being with you, being in your life, is not a curse. It is the opposite. I have felt loved and challenged in so many ways with you. I have become a better person because of you. And I have known peace, however brief, because of you.

The woman I was before here was unkind. You would not have liked her -- I am sure you surmised as much from our fight. But you have brought about a better me. I... feel fulfilled, in a way that I never would have if not for you.

If there is one thing I regret, it is that I broke our promise. Know that I did not intend to. Know that I would have done anything to see you smile again.

I will be watching you from the other side. Cheering, even. Connor and I both will. And with luck... this will not be goodbye.

Your beloved,

Tendou Maya

PS: Please deliver this letter to our Groundhog friend.
