So much has happened since I last wrote. Did you hear of what happened with Sanctuary? Union stormed the city and reclaimed it from Gigas. I should have been there, and it bothers me that I wasn't, but Kili was distracting me by taking me up into the mountains to train and look for more 'Mon. I'm sure it was deliberate. He knows how I am about Gigas.
Thorin was involved in the attack and was injured. He wasn't even conscious when they brought him back here. You should have seen his Arcanine; he refused to leave his side even though he was hurt too. They tell me Thorin will be fine. He took a bad hit but he's healing well. He's stuck in the hospital for now where there's plenty of people to keep an eye on him and keep him down, but the house feels emptier without him. It makes me nervous. Kili says I'm fussing but I don't care.
I bonded with another two Pokemon on our trip, at least. Fleur is the sweetest Teddiursa you ever met, though Kili will swear up and down she's evil. He startled her and she reacted, cut up his hand, but it's nothing serious and it wasn't her fault. She's just a baby, after all.
Then there's the Mawile I met, Egil. He is...a character, to put it one way. I can't seem to get him to stop eating everything. I think he likes to gross people out. It works pretty well on some of the girls around here.
Speaking of which, did you know that to most Unionites, taking off your shirt is considered indecent? Kili and I had a good laugh about that.
It's been a rough week and I miss you more than ever. I can't promise anything, but I want to find the time to visit soon. I feel frustrated and lost and like I can't protect my family the way I should. Both Thorin and Kili are hurt now, (Kili hardly at all, but you know how he whines) and I can't help but feel responsible, like there was something I could have done to help Thorin. If I'd been in the fight, maybe. Maybe if I'd left Caldera sooner, I don't know.

Take care, Mama. I think about you all the time.
