Lace was able to get all of her memories back and leave today. I was happy for her, but it's also bittersweet. She's been such a dear friend it's hard to imagine what things will be like without her. But it always makes me feel a little relieved to know that a friend won't be here anymore. I wonder if that's selfish or not.
Princess isn't in a snowglobe anymore! It's a sign that things are sort of looking up.
Or, well, I never really mentioned that she was in a snowglobe to begin with...I wanted to tell you some good news, but that sort of means explaining all of the bad news too.
I thought I should send you a proper update since it's been a little while since I've been gone. I've been keeping very busy since I got back! Princess requested that I help her to catalog the local flora, so I've been doing my best to research all of the plants here. There's one that makes a lovely tea, I'll send you some next time. I'm still settling in as well; a lot of people have come and gone while I was away, so I've been acquainting myself with all of the new people. Vash is still around and he's been helping me settle in. I've been doing my best to tease him in your stead! I hope it's just as effective. I've told everyone that you say hello, and then send you warm wishes as well. It's still winter here so I haven't been going outside as much as I'd like, but once we get some warmer weather I'll take a picture of some of the sights to send as a nice reminder.
There's a game starting soon, so this will have to do for now. I'll write more later, so please let me know if there's anything in specific that you're curious about. I wish you the very best and hope you're doing well.
It's gotten very cold here lately. I was hoping for it to warm up soon, but I guess it won't. I don't know if it's putting me in an irritable mood, or if it's the rest of this place...
I got a bad memory yesterday and it's filling me with frustration. I want to be able to do something about it, but I know it's in the past. I'd like to talk to you about it, but I don't want you to worry and come back here either. But I don't want to bottle it up. So I'll think of how to say it and write to you later.
I'm very tired, we all ended up staying up very late...I think it's morning now. I wanted to tell you something but I already forgot, so I'll think about it and make sure to write it in my next letter. I think it was a good day. It's hard to say. I hope you're doing well and enjoying the sunshine.
It's very late now, almost morning, but I wanted to write this all down for you before I forgot. I didn't want to put it off. There was a game earlier today--or, I should say, an attempt at one? Poltergeist thought it would be entertaining to try and kill us in a game, which was about as riveting as it sounds. (This is perhaps a relevant time to mention that the queen's ban against bad games has worn off, and at the moment she doesn't have enough energy to reinstate it. We've been managing fine, but since it is a crucial point to my story I thought it worth noting.) Before the game could begin, Star thought it would be worth it to try and channel Poltergeist to put a stop to it all--it did sort of work with a bit of additional help from all of us. We put a stop to the game without anyone being injured, and Haunt came out of her cabin! I think you would have been as surprised about it as the rest of us were. She was very cute, but she also has a very foul mouth, so I'm not sure what to make of her. Perhaps you can visit her sometime and see if she's able to come out of the cabin again? She might like that. In the end she took Poltergeist back so that the rest of us didn't need to deal with it, but I do hope there's been an improvement with things between them.
The days have been busy, but I think I have been avoiding writing to you, and for that I apologize. It's hard to find the words to put on paper! It was only when I saw Haunt go back into her cabin and thought "Oh, Amber would like to know about this" that I realized it. And it's impossible to tease you through letters, so it's not nearly as fun. I did get a picnic basket from a game, though, so when I come and visit you we can sit down and take our time catching up. Does that sounds nice? I'm looking forward to it already!
I played in a mini-game today, and as a prize the Echo gave me a basket full of alcohol and very sugary drinks. I'm not sure what to do with all of it, so I thought you might like to try.
Sincerely, Shirayuki

I met someone new today! His name is Victor Frankenstein. I feel like I've seen that name before, but I don't remember where. I thought I'd ask you and see if you've heard it?
Also, this book was very good, so I wanted you to read it and see what you think.

I did get an unpleasant one the other day, though, so I understood wanting to take it out in that moment. Even though I am teasing, I should add "at that moment, I understood you a little better."
It's embarrassing, honestly. I was kidnapped another time. I wasn't expecting it to be a recurring problem. It's the kind of thing that just makes you feel frustrated at your inability to do anything, you know?

wow rude i am only here to help
I'm quite fine with holding onto it, I was only teasing a little. It's perfectly safe in my possession, you know!

ARE YOU
Somehow when you say it like that, I feel even more inclined to worry.

Dear Amber,
If you were here, I wonder if things would have been different.There's really no accounting for bad taste.I wonder how difficult it would be to master patience. I don't know how much of it I have left.
