24 July, 1888
Flora,I wish this cursed fog would dissipate. Mother has taken to keeping me in even more than she had before. She gets worse as the fog continues. I do have one bit of exciting news to share, I met my uncle. My dead uncle. Turns out he died coming to see me when I was born and has been floating around ever since. He was rather curmudgeonly, but I imagine as a ghost it is hard to not be.
I am afraid to tell Mother though, I don't know how she will react. Maybe she will be happier, maybe she will be mad. She's so hard to read.
I wish you were here in person, it would be easier to talk about it face to face. Claire Benet and I had an adventure, we found our way to the Hog's Head! It was quite exciting.
Truly yours,
Arya
