Greetings, my Mirror,

I have sent you this key so you may gain easier access to your Prodigal Child, born of my children. I must truly thank you again, for she exceeds all of my expectations and desires. Her ability to summon and control those of Shadow rivals that of the Hopeslayer himself, and her ability to create, from nothing, beings of Shadow is nothing short of amazing.

When you offered to elevate one of my children to singular status and power with your experiments, I never dreamed of how far you'd go or how wonderfully you'd succeed. I can never properly repay a gift of this magnitude.

I have brought her home to the Orphanage, and created a new wing in order to keep her safe. As her physical form is still fragile, I have spent my efforts creating wards to keep her from all harm. Once she has grown into her power fully, we will be unstoppable. All of this world will fall to our will, and we can reshape it however we decide.

Oh, and be warned, don't touch the entrance of her lair without the key, or without the protection passed on by using the portal to her sanctum. Those Isparians love to touch and examine everything they come across, so I trapped it to discourage them from trying to pry into the inner workings of the statue. Should you need to come and go repeatedly, the protection afforded by the Sanctum Portal should protect you from the statue's trap for about 2 hours. After that, you'll need another key.
