[It's a good thing that Malik isn't there to see her as she reads the letter. She's at least spared that indignity.]
Malik,
No, I haven't. There was no need to do so and I was still fairly new to the Brotherhood compared to others training under Ah Tabai, my mentor back home. I suppose if I had survived my imprisonment I may have been granted the honor, but the rescue came too late. Still, it was good in my final moments to know help was sent.
But that's another world. This world, for all the pain it has put us through, has given me the chance at a new life and I plan to make the most of it.
