"Hey there, Priestess. How you holding up? If there's anything I can do to help, just say the word. I'm serious! No need to hold back. I owe you my life, after all. Gives me chills to think how I could have died before getting revenge. My family owes you as well, so it's up to me to pay you back on their behalf."
