[ah, she hadn't been about to respond to the other one right away, anyway. of course, she doesn't know how to answer this. she doesn't understand the problem. she wants to encourage his friendship with ravindra, but she's stuck knowing how important akhilendra is to him, and so it leaves her staring at the letter dumbly.
the second letter comes, and she doesn't take it right away. the dragon actually has to squawk at her to get her to take it, and she does, hesitantly. she feels terrible and simply holds on to the piece of paper, leaving it unopened. what does it say? he's so far away and she doesn't know what to do because the only answer she can think of would either push ravindra away, or push alexander away. and she's already all alone here. the asha is dead. gabriel is gone. there's theresa, but she doesn't want to go back to theresa. she wants to go home.
she opens the letter finally, swallowing. an apology. it doesn't help. she rereads it hoping it will, but it doesn't.

I don't know what to say. I'm sorry.
