My precious,

''I hope this letter finds you well. Think not of the expense, my dear—I care only that you received it in safety. It will be a few more weeks before I am able to break away to visit you again.

''You can't imagine the riches we've uncovered so far. Soon, you will live as a queen, and I your king. Of what? It does not matter. As long as you are by my side, I would rule over a kingdom of dung.''

Your ever faithful,

— D
