God of Temptation
Dried shastra daisies placed in a carefully woven willow basket as a tribute, or perhaps invitation, to Forin, the Fallen God of Love. Some Valandi still refuse to believe that their beloved deity is now one with Temptation. They create shrines in his honour, hidden from prying eyes.

Cousin! I do not know where such accusations originate from, but I would kindly remind you that my family has served our house with the utmost integrity… even when yours was in disarray and under fire by the local kends. My children understand the will of our gods and dare not act in shameful manners, public or otherwise – a rather useful skill yours would benefit from learning as well.
Perhaps ask your eldest daughter what type of flowers she is cultivating in her little garden. I highly doubt daisies are native to the north unless Eko himself has changed the laws of nature. Beware, cousin. Birds are talking and Sela’s winds could carry their songs straight to the capital with ease. A troubling prospect for us all; we are both painfully aware of the Kend-el’s stance on such matters.
Please, offer my humble advice: a few years beyond the Sea could heal her unruly nature. A few years, perhaps more. All official, of course.
Focus on your second.
With respect, Your dear Cousin from the very family you also belong to
