Still, no word from my beloved. He has been gone a long time. I cannot bear it. I wish he would send a letter or any indication that he is well. I wish to know why he left so swiftly. It must be duty? Surely? Perhaps the Lady will know? I should send a letter.
Nemben misses his father terribly, I can sense it. I attempt to continue on to the best of my abilities, but without my husband's support... it is so difficult.
I must be strong for my son, for my friends, for Andarne... wherever he may be. I know he loves me still. I would make for Lorien, but I cannot keep dragging Nemben all over the place. He needs stability. I shall linger in Falathlorn and continue raising my child, for the time being.
Perhaps one day, Andarne shall return to his family. I hope for it each and every day. Duty 'afore hearts, as he says, but his son deserves an explanation to his father's departure, at the very least.
My own duty calls; my Lavanion, my beautiful son. I lay aside my quill for now.
