[Inside of the alcove, there's a helmet that rests. The metalwork will be familiar to Lenna, struck of the same mold of a set of armor she would recognize. The decorations match that of her family's crest, and inside is a letter. It's folded, the handwriting etched into it from a fine feather pen. It reads:
Dearest Lenna,
It pains me to have left you, and to have told you so little. Know only that I did so to protect you. My business in the east is not yet finished, and I cannot return home until I have laid my fears to rest. I regret that I cannot share the details of my quest, but I know my daughter, and I know you will come looking for me. To that end, I have left this message for you to find.
If this is the path you have chosen, I cannot stand in your way, but be aware that it will be dangerous. I look forward to the day we are able to reunite, and pray that the world is more peaceful when we do. If you wish to find me before I make my return - become strong, and follow me to the east. You hold the future of the Tycoon family in your hands, and I know you will not disappoint me.
Take care, and remember that I will always love you. I am so proud of everything you have accomplished, and everything you have become.
Sincerely, Alexander Highwind Tycoon
The helmet is positioned to look farther east, off in the distance. There isn't an end to the steppe where they stood, and the man who'd left the clue for his daughter may still be traversing the land. Who's to say, because there's no clear trail, other than the helmet.]
