[The following is written in a conservative, flowing script. The note dictates that it should be given to the officer with the best understanding of conditions in Lower.]

Sir or Madame,

I am currently working on a piece for the Sanctuary Times concerning the Red Claw tribe of orcs. I have a few specific questions, but any information that you could give me would be of value.

~ What were the circumstances that led up to the death of the tribesman who was stoned recently (Zug, I believe)? What Councilor stood over the trial?

~ Where in Lower is the group based?

~ How much of a threat would you say they are to the people of Lower? Of Upper?

~ How many members of the brood have been executed by stoning?

~ How many orcs would you say there are in total?

~ Who is the warchief of the clan? Who are his closest followers?

While I would prefer a face to face meeting, I understand that your ranking officers are quite busy. Any information that you could give me would be greatly appreciated and may help preserve Sanctuary.

Sincerely,

Edmund Baezos

If you want and if given permision by my superiors i would be able to give you any details you want, i'll ask whether we are able to release the infromation, what times would suit you for a meeting?

Edmund,

I would be happy to give a meeting to you at your earliest convienience to discuss Clan Red Claw. While you must be aware that some things must remain private, I am sure I can tell you all you need to know regarding them.

Private Sannen

[Edmund pauses as he glances over the two notes. Quickly choosing the one with a name attached, he sets to work.]

Private Sannen,

I fear that I may not be able to meet with you for the next few days, but I will certainly be available later in the week. I propose lunch over rothe steaks in the Rock Bottom.

Sincerely,

Edmund Baezos

Private Sannen
