Letter to Sansa, post-D4 liberation
Dear Sansa,
By now you must have heard that I was taken by District Thirteen again. Sending this letter might be a risk, but I wanted to let you know that I'm safe and that you shouldn't need to worry about me. To be honest, I think I might be better than I have been in a long time.
Do you remember when we talked at the Valentine's Day ball? You said you realized that you could do so many more things in Panem that you couldn't before. Well, the same is true for me now. I never told you before, but the people of the Capitol did something to me. They made it so that when they told me to do something, I never had a choice in whether I should obey. I nearly hurt somebody because of that. And to tell the truth, my life before Panem wasn't entirely different.
But the rebellion has given me that ability to choose again. For the first time, I can choose what I do with myself and I know that I can do it. Like you and your work, I don't know what to do with all that yet. But I think I want to be able to try. I'm not asking you to fight on my behalf, or even do anything differently because of this letter. But I hope that you'll understand my reasons for wanting to stay away from the Capitol until I've sorted things out for myself.
In the meantime, I hope you're staying safe. You don't know how much it helped me all those days you visited, and when I was sent out to the battlefield. I hope I can repay the favor someday.
Love,
Luna
