This is an Idea that I have been cooking up for about a week and having got my ps3 back I can now set it in motion. The premise is simple, a brother and a sister are communicating across a large distance with short letters.
Ieze is a fledgling pilot and Jyrk is a Dust Mercenary. These are the first two letters of what I hope to be a series, and I hope you enjoy!

Dear Jyrk,
Just writing to ask how you are, we haven't heard from you for a while and our parents are going crazy without any update. Some sad news came this morning, our cousin was killed in a mining barge accident and this has only served to heighten Mother's worry. There is an investigation underway and things are under control I think.
On to some happier news, I'm nearly done at the RMS, I'm going to be a Pilot! Really hope you can come back for the graduation ceremony, I would love to see you there.
I have so many plans but I will definitely be joining up to the Militia and flying in the skies above you and will be with you spiritually. Meanwhile I have found work as a mechanic on a Rupture and Father gave me his old Rifter on the condition that I repair it myself, which has turned into a little project for me and a few good friends of mine! Maybe one day Ill be flying it in honour of the Republic.
I might be heading out to the front-lines on the Rupture crew at some point though which is pretty exciting. I hope you can get leave an meet up with me if you are near by when that happens.
Love
Ieze "Little One" Svain

Dear Little One,
I have to keep this brief, as they are not letting us write much and beside this is the only free time I have in the next few days I think. Things on the ground in [Redacted] are going well, just been promoted too, we are still in this and still fighting the good fight. Thats shocking to hear about our cousin, hope everyone is coping, you should tell our parents to stop worrying so much I'm fine. Pass my love onto them.
Thats great to hear you are near graduating, I honestly don't know if I will be able to get to the ceremony but maybe as you say we can meet up if you are nearby. But don't do anything rash if and when you get out here.
Good luck on that Rifter, you'll need it! Get in contact with my buddy Arakah, he might be able to help you with certain parts. Take care and stay safe, I don't want to lose you!
