(Figured could be fun to make some letters Fenric might send. Easier to track a show progression in his corruption and descent into Sith views. Note that the parchment isn't in actual Galactic Basic OOC, it was a glitch when I copy/paste that I thought looked cool)
(Parchment for a letter to one addressed "Kalie Bal" in Galactic Basic)
Kalie Bal,
My beloved daughter, I'm sorry for the delay since my last letter. I recently got relocated to a new station in the Empire to finish my training, so pop has been busy packing a lot.
I noticed in your last letter you mentioned how you were worried about me because of something Grandma and Grandad might've said, don't worry your little head about anything. Everyone here is super nice, my new friends even like farming just like we did!
I hope this letter finds you in good health and you're still having fun, I'll see you soon with a better life to come.
Love, dad.
Happy Birthday! Nine years old now, wow, so proud of ya'. Who would've thought my little spider-crab could grow up so fast. I'm sorry I can't be there again, I know I've missed the last couple but I promise to make it all up when I'm back, Kalie. I'll bring you all the best gifts.
I got in a little accident over here and one of my friends accidentally tripped ya pop down some steps. But fear not, it's only a little scratch, like that time my finger got stuck in the farm's cultivator - so I'm sure it'll heal in no time.
Make sure your grandma and grandad give you some birthday soup or they'll be hearing from me.
Pop is just checking back up on ya, of course I still miss you. Haven’t heard from you in a while, must be having too much fun back home huh. Too cool for your old dad now, is that it?
Over here I’m starting to get my feet a bit more. Some of their views are still wacko, don't get me wrong. But I may have been too harsh to judge previously. A lot of what they say when you think about it can start to make some sense.
There are people who go against the natural order of the galaxy - disguised as "saviours"
You'll learn this when you're older but I just want you to know, your dad is going to make this galaxy a better place for you.
Hey spider-monkey. Not messaging me back again, your pop might get insulted at this point. Regardless, I’ll continue updating you as is my duty.
Things proceed well. Part of my journey here as a Sith involves me becoming more in touch with my emotions, which I know may come as a surprise to hear about your old pop. They encourage us to meditate on these feelings for power…something you’ll come to see is the most important thing in the galaxy to live a good life. So far it’s been pretty useful in drawing that inner side of me out to help express a more realised version of myself - I suppose.
Now, you know your father isn’t one for regrets…or to dwell on the past. But I can’t help but reflect when I’m in these meditations. Mostly about your mother.
I know it wasn’t your fault, of course. It’s not as if you had any intention in it all. It was life. But a part of me still draws on that loss for strength. It’s a little bitter sweet, knowing that I still carry her with me sometimes. Even though it’s tied to your birth…my greatest gift.
Regardless, sorry for bringing that up. Do not take it the wrong way, for better or worse it is giving me energy to persevere right now.
I hope you are safe, I am seeking a housing arrangement on the planet Ihiri soon. When things feel safe and comfortable, I’ll start thinking about moving you here to be with me. Sorry this is taking so long, but you’ll thank me in the future.
(The handwriting was noticeably worse than prior letters, the parchment would have stains from what seems to be alcohol at the bottom. Some words seem to be crossed out too, indicating he changed his mind about how he naturally came to phrase things.)
Daughter,
I have not written in a while. Namely, because you have not replied in weeks. I did not expect my daughter to be so disobedient busy - but I will dismiss it for now so be grateful to your father.
I’m progressing well here, I’ve found a liking for the people around me more. I have learned so much in so little time that I am almost ashamed that so many years as a mere farmer had left me so unprepared. I know your dream is to become like me and take over the farm, but I fear now that it is my duty as a father to give you a more true path. But I suppose you’ve got years before you need any job decisions made. For you to be Sith would definitely make your mother proud. It is the least you can do for her.
As for my studies, I’ve noticed I have become more capable with fighting. In fact, I daresay I’m starting to actually enjoy it. I never quite realised but there have been so many times a rude fellow needed a good smack - but I thought it uncivilised. It’s become apparent that some people only talk in the language of violence…and when you meet them there it can be quite satisfying.
Anyway, that’s it for me, I’ll update you more later as it seems the ship is entering hyperspace again. Oh, if you care to send a message back tell me about your day.
(The handwriting was very good, like the man had taken his sweet time writing this, making sure every letter is perfect and clear.)
Daughter,
I am writing to you with love. Though what I am about to say may not feel like it.
I hope you are well, I’m sorry I had to leave again recently. It was only a matter of time before my excuse would start getting questioned, and I owe my allegiance to this powerbase.
I am happy though we got to reconnect, even temporarily, and it was good to see your grandparents treating you so well. You seem happy. I know grandpop and grandma have told me you have been crying at night occasionally since I left again. Do not despair, spider-crab, I will always be with you in spirit. I have not, and will not, forget about you - I hope you know this.
You are not going to understand this but you must trust that I have your best intentions in mind. I am sorry, Kalie, but I will be stopping these letters for a long time. Your pop isn’t going to be able to come down anymore for some time too. It is…imperative that I can keep you safe and this may be the only way to do that for now.
But just know that this will not last forever. I will gain control, power, and safety. Then and only then will you be safe to join me as my public and proud daughter.
