[ A letter is posted on the network. Evidently, Ereshkigal is convinced she's sent it to the proper recipient, and not to everyone ever. Turns out she's not very good with technology. ]
To the guards who were in charge of helping Shizuka and I:
I write this letter to give you my sincerest apologies. I realize my reaction was excessive and no words exist that can properly convey the depths of my regrets. Of course, under normal circumstances, I would harshly reprimand you for your behavior. Attempting to use your authority to coerce results is shameful indeed. Making use of threats and violence is unbefitting of those with guarding duties. Furthermore, the position you hold require a certain maturity you are very clearly lacking. I firmly believe the three of you to not only be unfit for your duties, but also unfit for any positions that give you an ounce of authority over other living entities.
However, I shall not reprimand you this time as the fault is entirely mine. No matter how vile and repugnant your behavior was, it does not excuse my actions. As the Goddess of Death and Queen of Kûr, you are in right to expect more from me. I may have only intended to scare you when I took the form that is mine as Queen of the Gallû Spirits, but good intents does not excuse evil results. I had expected you to run away at a much greater pace than you did... Thus did my attack hit you. I am ashamed of my behavior and promises to do better from now on.
I talked to the doctor and he assured me you will be able to leave your bed within three months at the very most. It is my understanding human doctors tend to be very conservative in their estimates. I believe there is cause to be hopeful, in two months you may very well be back on your feet! I plan to visit you and bring a gift as soon as possible. Even if you are abhorrent human beings, as a Goddess of the human order, mine is the task to look after you.
