Mr. Worn,
Much has happened since you honored our camp with your presence and your tale of victory over your dark elven foe.
It seems that Lower Sanctuary is unguarded. The people of Lower are in great danger with none to protect them. We do not question why this conflict has occurred. Nor do we seek to judge the men on either side of this issue. But now your people have need of your leadership to help replace what recent events have removed. Your people are in danger from the many humanoids, great beasts, and slaver races looking for such an opportunity of obvious weakness.
This is the responsibility of great men such as yourself.
The Tribe of the Blade would be willing to defend your gates for fair compensation. We know that you are a practical man, and that it is unfair to expect our warriors to risk their lives without benefit for their Tribe.
Would it be possible for you and the other merchants of Lower to form a consortium and hire the Tribe to protect your commerce and your customers? We hope our actions have proven that we are an honorable people, and once entered into beneficial contract would defend you and your people with the ferocity of tigers.
Some call us mercenaries as if this were a bad thing. We are simply businessmen. There is honor in speaking plainly of a thing.
Speak to your people, or step forth for all of them as their leader. It would be a great honor to deal with you to forge this contract and confer status for me in the eyes of my People. But there are others in our Camp who speak to you on this as well if you do not wish to grant Andrei this gift.
Andrei of the Tribe of the Blade Eighth Rank
