Dear Isabella,

As beauty is subjective, I'm uncertain if I meet the requirements to apply.

However, I wish to know more about the "risk-free job", such as what it entails, and how much it pays.

Regards,
Estellise Azimi

QuoteDear Estellise,

Beauty is deeper than what the eye perceives. You yourself are fiery in spirit and unconditionally candid with anyone and everything around you. It's strength; it's absolute; it's beautiful.

Having said that, let me explain plainly and to the point what the job is, what is expected and how much it pays.

You, and a selection of some of the Well's other maidens and lads, will be the centerpieces of what is best described as 'an auction'. What is being auctioned is a 'date' with each and every one of you, in essence (Ever been on one?).

You shall be introduced to the audience, many of who'm are eager to flaunt their wealth. The highest bidder shall be privileged to a fine dinner with you.  This is not something permiscuous; this is the  privilege of your time to a casual little evening you might have shared with anyone else you had a perked curiosity of getting to know better.

Only this is for charity. Specifically for the Food Relief Fund for the refugees.

The pay was 100 dinars. However, because it's you and your time as an astronomer makes yours intrinsically more valuable (and because you're you), I'm willing to offer 200 dinars. I understand it's forbidden to be out of your uniform, so I will rescind any offer of a dress (Though I think you'd look lovely in one).

Again, no expectations beyond a dinner with the bidder. Nothing more.

Let me know if you're interested. If you are, send me a short list of your hobbies, aspirations and so forth; that I might properly introduce you.

After all, you never know! You might just meet that special someone.

If they can see you.

~ Isabella Fitzgerald

P.S Your organization always has a friend in me at the assemblies. Rest assured, I will be advocating for more funding; regardless of your decision on this job offer.
