Esteemed Sir,

I write to you with a proposal that will see a large number of coins make their way into the purse of yourself, and your clan.

I am the Head Engineer on a project to see built a new temple within Sanctuary Proper. I've already designed the temple on paper, and now beginning to attempt to make arrangements for the necessary supplies, and workers to get the job done.

If you could please reply to this, and let me know if you have dwarfpower available that could work on contract to:

a. Mine and deliver the granite and marble blocks needed for construction of the temple. b. Work the stone, and finish it to my planned specifications.

I would very much like to keep this job a "local" one, and keep the coins in the hands of my neighbors, but will look elsewhere if need be.

Counting the ticks to your anticipated reply, Cog Ippensher

Another letter is dropped off with the Duergar Foreman for the Thain.

Esteemed Sir,

It has been some time since my last missive was sent to you. I would dearly love to open a dialogue with you regarding the particulars of this task. Our needs are changing as it becomes more apparent that a contractor for the construction may be hard to find, and I would still like to see that some of the coins from this project go into your own pockets, perhaps forging a more permanent working arrangement between yourself and myself for future projects.

Sincerely yours, Cog Ippensher.

Come by to speak with us regarding this project. If your coin is good, we can mine and work the stone.
