I sincerely hope I have found the correct person! These devices are not the easiest for me to navigate despite several months' learning and a few guides. In the hopes that I have in fact found you, I would like to extend to you my sincere thanks. You were put in a remarkably tense situation with no good outcome and you did everything you could to try and help me change it. There was no reason for you to do this, putting your own self at risk like you did, but you did, and you were there for me the whole time, and I never really got the chance to thank you for that.
Not many people would have done that, I think. I hope you know how remarkable a thing it was, and how much it meant to be, no matter the outcome. Looking back, I do not believe my actions or the actions of anyone could have changed Alexei's mind. He was a great man, once, but I am beginning to think that with such greatness comes a sort of isolation, particularly when one feels desperate and alone.
You reminded me that, despite my now holding that same office (or, well, I suppose I did, at home! I don't any longer, and I am still attempting to make my peace with that), there are people in my corner who are willing to help me. That I am not alone. Sincerely, from every corner of me: thank you for that.
I hope you are well, and that you will give me a chance to return the favor when it is required. We are none of us here alone.
