Letter for Agelwyn
To my dear wife Agelwyn,
I write this in great haste, for I am wounded. My leg is broken, and I cannot get up. My fellow soldiers lie dead around me, and I am sure my death will come soon, for it is only a matter of time until another horde of enemies pours through the ford.
Do not be sad for me, my dear lady. I feel no pain when I think of you. I only hope against all hope that this letter may reach you someday.
My only wish is that you be happy and brave, and that you survive. Our fair Rohan will prevail! I will not live to see it, but I know you will.
Be safe. Care for the people of Marton.
