Anyone who would walk into the House of Light late on Tarsakh the 25th would see a scene of destruction and chaos as they enter. One would see the CDL guard laying knocked out in a pool of blood, all the statues smashed and broken, the lonesome beggar in the housing end knocked out, everything in sight trashed, including the HoL contract framed on the wall.

One would also find the following note, written in a poor, chicken-scrawl hand:

"You Upper tyrants have been warned of what happens if you don't move your shit back upstairs. This is Lower, for Lower folk. Your pretty, rich building that does nothing but glorify the Upper mindset and satisfy your public image as friends of Lower folk will be completely destroyed. Your HoL members will be killed, innocent Upper folk as well, until you give in to the will of those who stick up for Lower. This isn't your turf. Get the Hells off it or die. Last chance."

*amolef passes through the house of light on patrol and takes the note, he quickly copies the note and leaves the original then runs at full speed back to the compound to give it to the captain*

A few sheets of paper, all identical, are found billowing in the dust in the alley near the House of Light

We see no movement back to Upper, as we demanded. Consider this your final warning, shitkickers.

Your house of tyranny, a bastion of Upper wealth and a Watch foothold in Lower has been blown up before. We're smarter than that. We don't endanger Lower lives and destory buildings that can provide shelter for families. We take the fight to the curs that operate it. Thats you.

You think the Tigreyes are going to help, or that you can hide behind or even fight with the Upper dogs? We hope you do, because it will mean more Upper pigs butchered.

Take your fancy statues and decorations back to Upper, and we spare your lives. Don't, and we'll claim them. We've wrecked your shit before, easily. Piss off, otherwise the next prick you post as a guard will have his skull smashed in, rather than just his rosy cheeks.

No date. Just act soon.

- THE PORK BUTCHERS

*on his normal patrol which includes multiple routes past the house of light, Amolef takes one of the notices*
