Dear Cassius,
Are you okay? Have you returned home safely?
Sincerely,
Dedue

I am sorry to hear this.

It is much the same for me. I am home but quite weary, and moving around is difficult, as the corruption has locked some of my joints.
Do not worry for me. You have enough on your mind. I will be all right.

I suppose I cannot argue with that.
I mostly feel... Numb and tired. I have no desire to do anything, though I know I should.

Do you have an imprinted friend nearby you can call on? I hear it helps. Or I could try to come visit you.

It is not a burden. I will take the tram.

[That takes out some of the effort, and also means it won't take a million years with his current stiff limp.]

If we can muster the energy, I can help you with your garden. If we cannot, we can simply sit together.

I will. Give me... Perhaps an hour or two.

[He still spends a good five or ten minutes half-dormant, sitting on the edge of his bed and staring at the wall, willing himself to move. Eventually, he gets up, and slowly makes himself presentable. His body feels like lead, stiff and heavy, so each task is arduous. Finally, though, he leaves the Valentia, breathing fresh air for the first time since the escape. He limps to the tram, which takes him to the city's edge, and walks from there.

It helps, being in the forest, seeing the sun shining and smelling the dying leaves. He starts to feel a bit lighter, his movement a bit easier, even before he reaches Cassius' house.

And the house has flowers surrounding it, too, though they are starting to show the effects of the cooling weather. He looks around for Cassius to see if he's outside, and if not, he will knock on the door.]
