Letter for Emerald Trading Company, Salty Dog

[Harper Pritchard]

*Elegant script flows carefully across the tan parchment. The letter is left at The Salty Dog, Britain: in the care of the tavern owner*

Dear Sirs and Madams,

As I am unsure of the exact head of your organization, I address you all. Perhaps you are only minorly familiar with my city, Umbra. We are in the midst of rebuilding currently. Our history is vast and riddled with mystery. It is riddled with shades of the past as well. Nevertheless, we are a proud heritage with a number of upcoming projects.

As such, there are two propositions I wish to discuss. Both tasks and payment are substantial. I would like to sit down at a mutually convenient time to discuss these matters.

Sincerely,

Harper Pritchard, Recorder
Umbra Inner Council
Umbra, Malas

*A messenger arrives in Umbra, with instructions to leave the following wherever the city's inner council is known to gather*

Lady Pritchard,

I am writing in response to your letter. My name is Judas, and I am a member of the Emerald Trading Company. We are very much interested in your proposal and would like to meet to speak further. I am able to travel to Umbra, if there is a time and place that suits you. Otherwise, members of our company can be found at the Salty Dog Tavern in Britain almost every evening.

I look forward to your response.

Yours Truly,

Judas

*Returned hastily but still in elegant timed script*

Judas,

If it is acceptable, I will arrive at your establishment tomorrow eve. A quarter until nine bells is acceptable. Unless I hear otherwise I will take it as appointed.

Sincerely,

Harper Pritchard, Recorder

Dear Lady Pritchard,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am pleased to inform you that our company has agreed to your generous offer of employment. We intend to journey to your city soon to begin gathering the samples that you require. Kindly let me know the best time and place to collect the specially-prepared vials you mentioned. As for the second part of your offer, please advise us of the dates and we shall be there to render any assistance you might require.

Yours Truly,

Judas,

I have procured the appropriate vials as well as supplies for your venture. Simply arrive at the inscription house and I will have a pack horse loaded with your items for travel.

I will have dates as well for the aforementioned events within the week.

Best of luck,
