"pen, ever since i found out you are whistledown, i have done everything i can to try to separate you from her. but the other day, i went back and read all of the letters you have sent me. your letters have always been the ones i am most eager to read, and i realised, you are her. you have always had one voice. there is no separating you from Whistledown and after seeing you speak today, well I would not want to. but forgive me that was bloody brilliant. i think, in truth, i...have been envious of you, of your success, of your bravery, and now i cannot simply believe that a woman with such bravery loves me. how lucky i am to stand by your side and soak up even a little of your light. if my only purpose in life is to love a woman as great as you...than i will be a very fulfilled man, indeed. i love you."
