Dear Marshal,
I don’t know what to say, and so I decided to write you a letter. I know you will never read this, but I just wanted to put things in perspective for myself, seeing as I still can’t believe what happened, and give my sadness a place.
I do not care anymore. My efforts to save you have been in vain and I feel I lost not only a brother, but a great friend as well. I saw your death coming, the moment I gazed upon your abused body. I just didn’t want to believe that after all you’ve been through, and after all we’ve been through, this would be the end of your story.
I remember when I was newly awakened, how you didn’t care about my lack of knowledge of anything. You were my older brother and happily joined me on my adventures. You saw me grow from a sapling to a strong commander, and I saw you grow from an expert of Orr and solitude to a leader of Tyria’s largest military organization. I like to think you are as proud of me as I am of you.
Without you.. I am not sure what to do. A gaping hole has taken residence in my heart and I find myself wishing to trade in anything -and anyone- to get you back. What use is there to go on adventures if I can’t talk about them with my dear brother, and then accompany him on his missions? I found joy in that, in you being always there, it felt secure in one way or another.
My dear Marshal and beloved brother, I wish you peace, wherever you are.
-Your Commander
