Blessed son of great House Atreide,
Forever will we sing of Validus. Whom has hence departed from us. Life
spent is indeed never life wasted. Within the Master's embrace shall you
dwell, and forever shall it keep you. Your thoughts were of compassion,
and peace. May the great Lord Thoth grant you what yearns within the
crux of your soul, and may the Lady Tarah bring you into Her bosom. A
life so placid, but so strong in love and deed. Abide until I rest, and
it will be there I will see you. Forever and eternal, my beautiful son.
Amen.


Your loving father.
