Make text with sides.

 

Text convern to curves (Ctrl+Q), and in Contour docker (Ctrl-F9) make Inside contour.

 

 

 

Enable Snap to objects option (Alt + Z) and draw auxiliary path with Free Hand Tool (enough lines of the two nodes angles unifying text and contour).

 

 

 
A simple click with Instrument Smart Fill Tool make a separate object.

 

 

Remove contour and path, break text on separate letter (Ctrl + K). Fill sides and letters with Gradients (G).
