Dear Mr. Lestrange,

I write to you to wish you a happy birthday. I hope that you will have a wonderful day, surrounded by your dearest relatives and friends.

Yours affectionately,

Artemisia Carrow

Enclosed is a handkerchief with some really intricate embroidery in one corner of it! You can tell that she worked really hard on one side and then, towards the end of it, it got sloppy. I headcanon that she started working on it in like, February and then she wasn't done by the time Sterling was murdered and then she half assed it. xD

Miss Carrow

Thank you for your letter and the lovely handkerchief, it was a wonderful surprise for my birthday. I fear I've neglected to keep in touch. Are you doing well? I haven't had much time to socialize lately, but perhaps we could make time to see one another in the near future?  

Sincerely,
C. Lestrange

Dear Mr. Lestrange,

It pleases me to know that you enjoyed your present. It is my greatest desire to make you happy, for that would be one of my duties once we are married.

You do not have to apologize, Mr. Lestrange. If anyone was neglectful of their duties, it was me. My brother's death took a toll on me but, thanks to my family's love and support, I am finally able to move on.

I will be departing for your late aunt's school in September and I confess that I am busy with the preparations. I wouldn't want for us to meet only for me to be distracted! We could make time in September, perhaps, once I have settled at the school? I believe that I will have Saturdays free and I see no reason why your cousin wouldn't let us take a walk together in Irvingly. I am told that the countryside near the Irvingly Chapel is quite lovely.

Yours affectionately,

Artemisia Carrow
