Nagato-san,

I hope this missive finds you well. I should apologize for my silence as of late. I have been busier than usual lately with regards to training to advance in rank, but I think that's a poor excuse for the length of my silence. Are you well? And Ame? How is it this time of year?

Wind is going to be heating up soon. If you decide to make a trip, be sure to stay hydrated.

I'll keep my pen close. It's been too long.

Kazue
