[The rescue effort Vanessa was part of wasn't personal on his behalf, Dorian knows, but it was still integral to his escape and Toby's fight not being any worse than it was. His gratitude may be coming a month late and while he's still catching up from freshly having risen from his coma, but it's genuine and a good excuse to make contact again.]

Ms. Ives? Apologies for the belated message, but I like to think grace delivered late is better than nothing offered never.

I wanted to thank you for your help in Veracity. Not just for being part of the party that kept Toby in one piece, but also for keeping our apparent mutual friend safe.
