Dear Pearl,

The book you mentioned never arrived. But this rather exhausted bird landed on Fanny's windowsill early this morning carrying a gigantic egg and with a hand lettered excerpt from "Invictus" under her wing:  "I am the master of my fate:  I am the captain of my soul."  Of course we are confused about how to understand her sudden arrival here.  And to interpret the significance of the giant egg. . .  Have you any advice for us dear Pearl?

I Remain As Always, Your Devoted Miss Blue
