Dear Sanda:
Thank you for the birthday wishes and gift!
I will make sure that this rum is properly enjoyed with friends while my thoughts will be of you.
I am so proud of you. I think you told me once that you wanted to become an officer, and I am happy to see that you are fulfilling your goals.
I am still quite new on the Bastion, but I enjoy it so far. There are plenty of opportunities to play for our guests, but my favourite place to play is in the crew quarters. There is something intimate about huddling together in a small room and playing for my coworkers, who are not used to being entertained with private concerts.
It was good for me to take some time off. I went travelling for a month at a time, making sure to be back for my monthly reserve training. But I saw all the corners of the empire, playing gigs and crashing wherever I could. This experience has given me some confidence with people that I was lacking before. When I return to Star Army full-time, as I intend to do, I feel that this experience will serve me well.
Your "Sister" and friend, always,
Kwabba-an
YCS Bastion of Winter
P.S. I still seem to have a ranger knife. Could it be yours? If so, I will return it when we next meet.
