To Her Most Illuminated Grace, High Priestess Kinrava of The Temple of the Lord Of Light

  Most Blessed One.

  I've written this urgent letter to you with news of great importance, The Lord of Light has in his benevolence saw fit to bless me with a most fortunate vision. During my routine communion with our Lord's sacred fires. I was granted a blessing unlike anything I've ever witnessed before. I have never had such a vision be so clear and with such clarity, as you know our visions can sometimes be misinterpreted the delusions of us mortals to think we may truly understand the divine. Yet I have not misinterpreted this vision was as clear as the river Ash is dark.

  I saw an island in the glare of a sunset, despite the blazing sun the island was dark and misty. Like a craggy rock jutting out of the ocean, battered by wind and the kind of storms that shatter ships amongst those very rocks. Despite the cold of the island it also felt warm at the same time, if such can be believed. On the rock sat a great fortress of stone, blackstone though not the type that drinks of light, the fortress was adorned with iconography of dragons. I believe this place to be some kind of remnant of Old Valyria, weakened and diluted though it is. With the sunset and the icons, I can only guess that this place is to the west.

  On this rock there was a figure wreathed in a veil of shadows yet underneath this veil was fire. Fire of lava, pure unadulterated heat. I was expecting the cold ice of the enemy yet I find the opposite. This figure was both young and old, from one angle I saw a child, another I saw a man. It's odd yet the fires do not lie, this figure holds great importance in the great war and the battles to come. It seems that magic has seen a resurgence as well though I'm sure you are already aware, perhaps the two phenomenon are linked. It appears that the Valyrians are once again an important part of the balance.

  What I witnessed was unlike any other visions I've ever seen in the holy light, I do not believe this it be false nor a misinterpretation on my own part. I believe R'hllor himself has granted me the divine purpose and task to seek this being out. I intend to guide and teach this individual to the true ways of this world and into the Lord's light. The vision suggests this figure is important and yet young so it is of great importance it is properly educated. I must undertake this journey west and complete my task.

  Therefore, I humbly request your blessing on this arduous yet favourable task I am to undertake. I shall journey to this dragon fortress there I shall if possible establish a new temple to our Lord there. I shall serve as a teacher and advisor to this figure as the Lord of Light has revealed them to be worthy and necessary in our great purpose.

  I shall depart on the next favourable wind, should the lord grant me luck I should be nearing Volantis as you receive this missive. I shall visit the temple and seek out your guidance if you would permit me to.

  May the Lord of Light guide your path.

  Melisandre

  Humble Servant of our Lord
