One of the best in her field, Viessa is normally too busy to bother interacting with the rest of the family. Few people know much about Vie besides workers at the Singing Kestrel and Padmini which is fine with her. The less people involved with her the better.

Concerns
Dearest Ven,
How is my favorite daughters-in-law? I hope you are doing well. When I spoke to your spouse last they were quite vague while talking about you and everything else for that matter. I had to pry just to find out if they still have that mechanic job or not. It's like they're hiding something from me.
Speaking of that, I'm sure Yumi has mentioned to you by now about the incident I've had with a fellow called Ratchet. They still continue to be a thorn in our family's side, even causing problems for our newest collaborators. With help from the inside, they were able to plan a raid on the Kovar's. Sure we snuffed it out with minor problems, but the reach they have is concerning to me. I fear that it's only a matter of time until this changeling is able to gather some information that I don't want to come to light.
Before you freak out, I'm not talking about our past relationship. I'll take that to the grave if you care so much about it, although be aware that If that gets out there's not much I can do and is really none of my concern. My daughter knows that I had a different lifestyle a couple years back and wouldn't be surprised that their now wife was once intimate with their mother. If anything they'll be upset at you for not telling them before you dated in the first place but I digress.
What is important to me is that they learn that their sister's death was my fault from me, not some spy desperately searching for secrets they have no business knowing. And since you are the only person I've made aware of this, I'm counting on you to keep this to yourself for a little longer while I figure out how to tell them everything. If you don't comply however, please know that, with a bit of research, I could easily learn how to remove your larynx. So be careful out there sweetheart.
Love, Vie
A Letter to the dead

Dear Amaya,
It's been too long, you've missed so much in the past couple years. You'll be happy to know that Yumi is doing well. I can't believe I'm saying this, but your little sister has gotten married! We've been waiting so long and they were finally able to work up the courage to propose to their girlfriend. The wedding was beautiful. I wish you were there to see it.
With them off on their honeymoon, I've been left to focus on work… or at least attempt to. The military hurt some of our own even killed one, I saw them first-hand. All I could think about was you and it was only the start. We laid out a trap for a spy we learned of and it was going well, until Vesper was shot. She was just grazed but it was enough to send me out the window to chase the shooter down. That was the last thing I remembered before I was suddenly holding you again, trying to comfort you during your last breaths. Next thing I know, I'm standing in an alley with the others. Apparently I almost died trying to get him, but I have no memory of it. I didn't tell them that though, I intend to work through this on my own.
That's why I'm writing to you after all, it is strangely therapeutic. Maybe after long enough I'll be able to fire my own gun again. For now I'll just take comfort at the thought that you might see this in the afterlife.
With love, Mom
