Valmont, are you well? [i.e. has Shendu finished up his tantrum yet. :|]

I have only been able to gather what happened from others' responses to it; when I came to Iago's own words, I found only silence, and I will not comment on what I have come to know secondhand. I will say only what has always been true: you are a strong, honourable woman. No words will strip that from you.
And I apologise, for speaking selfishly when I suspect you would rather this whole affair be over.
