Dear Lady Liza Lavenza,

I am Madame Ingrid Mordis, an entrepreneur and a guest of your luxurious estate. A Lady of your resources must certainly have everything she needs at her disposal, so I shall not trouble you with petty offers. However, it seemed to me disrespectful if I did not at least present myself to you for whatever services you may require while I am living under your roof.

I am a seasoned sailor, commander, and swordswoman. During my time aboard the Screaming Gale, our company safely moved precious cargo through some of the most treacherous waters ever conjured by the Queen of the Depths, with ports of call stretching over a thousand miles. I am familiar with nearly all varieties of profitable enterprise, and I also have some limited experience with mining operations.

Though this is only a letter of formal introduction, I would also offer my apology for the dreadful disturbance emanating from my room a few nights ago. As it happened, one of my personal guests presented himself to me as something he was not, resulting in a grave misunderstanding. Please accept my assurance that I will never bring that man or his ilk onto your property again.

Respectfully,

Mme. Ingrid Mordis The Grotto
