Dex,

Your father hasn’t heard from you in several turns of a leaf, you know how worried he gets. Axel confides in him every few standard cycles; your brother is a dutiful concubine to the High Lady Ivory now. You’ve broken your poor father’s heart, not showing up to your own twin’s binding ceremony, he’s waited his whole life for this. Axel has already sired his lady two beautiful joeys, both strong girls. You will fall in love with them upon your next visit.

Speaking of such matters. Your father claims that you’ve run off to some institution to get an education or what have you. That silly man doesn’t know what he’s talking about. You are set to begin preparing for courtship in half a Standard Orbit. There are several accomplished ladies from various high houses willing to court my beautiful little Dex. You’ll make a lovely husband to one of the countless ladies who’ve taken a fancy to your portraits.

I expect you to return from this little vacation to Toil 8 before the Kefi leaves turn red in preparation for the noble ladies seeking your courtship. The binding ceremony will take place after the first frost. There is much to do, my son.

in a leaffall,

Lady Sisu

P.S. At your father’s request, I’ve attached an article. Be careful out there, boy. You’re a pretty boy. Do you still have the Cap Spray your father gave you? Aim for the eyes and muzzle!
