Dear Gers,

Timing and my other interests across the Ash Desert have sadly prevented me from meeting with you of late. Rest assured that I am still firmly committed to our cause. I have a goodly sum of dinar to pay Bernadette when next we meet.

Currently sending the command /v d /e <action> does nothing. I could have sworn they used to be able to do this.  It'd be cool if you could!

Since there's a few interesting player factions centered around properties, it'd be neat if the owner of a building could designate other owners/heirs for the building to allow for continuity of the concept after their death.

[Inversion]

Inversion
The Principle of Inversion has always been a fundament of the Mirage. Sand turned to water. Order skewed in on itself to produce an entirely different anomalous effect. Its power comes not from what it is, but what it seems to be. A full half rotation and you have water in the desert. The parched traveller continues a doomed sojourn into the wastes. 

Rotation
Where the effects of inversion at half rotation are at their most obvious through outright confutation, rotation a quarter or less may confuse energy flows and create something entirely new. Must observe.

Dear Sisters,

I have just heard your call for new acolytes to join your ranks and have found my heart stirring at the prospect. Since I've made my way to the Ephia's Well as a refugee I have laboured humbly as a stall trader. It has lead me to some meagre wealth and having attained it all I taste is ash.

What is material gain when all that surrounds us continues to dry. When thirst plagues the poor and needy, until we are all cast down to such benighted condition until we mercifully pass. Suffering worsens daily and it will not abate until the Pilgrim is shown the way.

It's clear to me now that it's only through good works and continual striving for the Chalice that we will ensure our future here in the desert.

I ask of you wise reader, what trials would you set before me? How may we discern if this is to be my path?

Faithfully Yours,
Sadira of the Uutramut

It's extra painful with a shapeshifting sorc. Losing your spell slots each change.

Honoured Legates,

I was most inspired by the appearance of not one but two Legates overseeing the trial of the nefarious shyster bureaucrat Shane Gallows. It was handled with the gravity and dignity to which we must all aspire when upholding the nascent traditions of our beloved Well.

I am however worried that you overwork yourselves for the good of us all. Too many demands, too much work! To this end I must ask whether you have considered the new appointment of judges through which you might ease the significant administrative burden you take upon your weary shoulders.

While I recognise that I am not yet worthy enough to receive your illustrious consideration, I would like to ask what you seek in a candidate? I would be delighted to share any wisdom you might have to spare with the good and upstanding citizens I happen to know. Perhaps one day we all might serve justly under sight of mighty Urazzir.

Respectfully Yours,
Sadira of the Uutramut

Dear Arterian,

I hope this letter is not too presumptuous. Since there appears few chances for us to speak, I thought I might as well write you!

I read in the Empty Gallows that you had discovered something repugnant about Diakos? So much so that you renounced your membership from the Whites?

Is this true? Can you share with me anything about how this came to be? Does something foul truly lurk at the heart of the League? I dread to think it the case.

As I doubt you care for divided political lines when it comes at the expense of people's welfare, I would still welcome your thoughts on how we might improve the lot of the stonefolk. I have spoken with a number of them and do have some ideas for how we might begin, but would welcome your continued input if you still feel as you did.

Faithfully yours,
Sadira of the Uutramut,

Dear Mr Brandy,

You are the current owner of an estate in the Tablet which I would very much like to acquire. Would you be open at all to the possibility of sale?

Perhaps we might meet and discuss the options.

Cordially yours,

For quests with randomised enemies/abilities, allow PCs to roll a skill check to ask into the details of the group you're facing. On a critical failure, reveal false information about the enemy type and their abilties, on a failure, no information, on a success reveal information.

You could tie it to multiple skills depending on the foe. Lore to know details about the creature type, persuade to gather information about the bandit group and its tactics from people that have encountered them in the Krak, search to read tracks near the enemy encampment to know their unit composition. Consecration to know a ritual to weaken an undead foe etc.
