Hello to you,
I've spent a lot of time out in the underdark become fairly familiar with terrain around your city, though there is never a lack to explore out there. I am writing because I am interested in mapping what I come across, and though there are tools available to do so, they cost a fair coin to consistently buy. I was hoping we could strike some kind of deal, as it were, wherein I could provide your group with copies of the maps I put together and reports on my findings if you all could see to flipping the bill on the mapping materials.
I believe quite strongly in what you all are doing out here and am sure that with enough effort we'll come across a rout to the surface sooner then later. It'd be nice to meet with one of you to compare notes and such, should you have the time. I'm collecting my mail over at the blue mushroom for the moment, but I'll likely set up some deal with Spencer to hold onto mail for me, so feel free to leave word at either place.
Best, Emanuel Lucas
