My dearest Goddess of Mysteries,

Let Me be the first of My shy family to publicly welcome You into Our
garden. Your enigmatic being brings a refreshing change to the Garden
that cannot be matched. I must say that when I first saw that cloud of
mist form over the Isle of Polyargos, My heart quivered for its purpose
was unknown to Me. Had I anticipated the result that stands before Me, I
would have hastened My experiments and Your arrival.

Without a doubt, My enchanting Niuri, I am enraptured with Your deep
blue eyes. The secrets they possess alone I can only imagine are
depthless. The thought of Your bronzed skin brings a smile to My unhappy
face. The essence of My soul beats faster and faster when I think of
Your presence near Me.

Niuri, Goddess of Mysteries, do Me the honor of letting Me show You the
few secrets I know. Your being with Me is repayment enough for that
favour. I do not know what I would do if you denied Me this request. I
would feel emptied, and less of a God.

I await Your response with childlike anticipation.

Severn, Lord of Artifice
