Eventually, there is a postcard that says, Talked to your mom today. She's still adorable. I miss you so much.
And another one after a week that says, I can't do this anymore.

You have a daughter. Her name is Helen. Her daemon's Kalavar. Likes being ducklings.
I meant to have a kid - I didn't mean her to be yours. She wasn't supposed to be anyone's. I don't even know if that makes it better or worse. I don't know what happened. Fuck.
