Dear Gabriella di Lorenzo Fiorentini,

I just signed on here, and I am saddened and confused at what is written 
here. Your letter indicates a terrible event, I am shaken by such 
tidings, what happened to bring about this loss? These two wore the 
Coronets when I first came to the SCA. Muirgen was gracious and kind to 
me when I, all unknowing of her rank, made her acquaintance at my second 
event. I always retained a deep feeling of gratitude to her for that 
early kindness. I wish to add my heartfelt condolences to all those who 
are greiving .... this is so inadequate, right now nothing can assuage 
the impact of this tragedy. 

Maude of Burgundy,
