Salutations to You,
I wish to hold a small competition within your establishment, a combination of story telling, fine music, and singing, followed by heavy drinking for those that stay to the end. This will bring coin and much needed entertainment to your establishment. Let me know under what circumstances this would be acceptable during these most trying times. You will find my name in your ledger, as leasing one of your rooms.
