Tea in the distant future

Lady Nuala Airgetsnáithe,

My days lack any distinctive beginning or end, but I understand the feelings on paperwork. Ordinarily I don't mind the desk work that is an invaluable part of what I do, but I'm anxious to get back into the field.

I suspect you weren't mocking me, in regards to mortality. Few people in my world even attain the age I am, but I suppose they might envy me that, too.

My work is constant, yes, but that is because what I do is also who I am. You could say I've made a place in the world shaped around myself, and I don't believe I think of my work the way a man with a 9 to 5 job does. I suppose if I did I would have stayed retired. Next week, perhaps. I'm fond of tea.
