I received a letter from Róisín. She is with child! Oh what joyful news! She has also sent me a new book to read. I admit that I am getting better at it. I will be able to see the babe once I return home next, in three-quarter's year. Róisín says if it is born a girl, she will name her Catríon, after me. If it is born a boy, she will name him Fionn. I have never thought much of the Gods, but I must thank Pelor for this gift of life to us. My days are spent in pursuit of death. I cannot wait to greet new life.
