My dearest Lily,
The name we have given you makes you no justice. For you are far more beautiful and resilient than any other flower has ever bloomed under the gentle gaze of the sun or the moon.
If you have read my journals, by know you must know the truth and for that I must ask for forgiveness. We tried our best to give you the life you deserve. One far away from the monster that will haunt you long after we have past.
Always remain true to yourself and follow the path you have built for yourself. For there is no one in this world or the next that knows your heart better than you do.
The challenges you will face, are no different than the ones, that anyone meant for greatness faces.
And you my child, my beautiful child are greatness itself. The bind we have placed on you it is not to tether you to Mason. He is a good child . Be good to him for he has suffered more than a child should.
Your father says that when time comes the bind will dissolve. Because there is nothing in this world that can keep you down.
Rise, shine brighter than the sun itself and if it stands in your way take its place.
We love you. I hope you know that. I'm only sorry that we couldn't be there with you.
With all our love,
Your mother and father,
