Hello Mister Upstanding Gentleman Sir

Does Gers Geiger count as upstanding?

Sincerely,
Someone Not So Upstanding

Upstanding Gentleman

/ A reply is left in the same location with a very similar form as to the one left, merely upside down /

Gers Geiger can be erased from our esteemed list of servants and Voiced Citizens for the price of 3,000 Dinar. However, our situation has quickly drawn upon itself an issue that must be overcome, and so I shall present to you some offers of how we might settle the affair.

Firstly, should you desire to maintain your anonymity you may accept this offer by letter and leave the precious coins for my gathering. The location I find most fitting is within the side room of the Sultan's Head Coffee House. However, I shall need you to leave the key just outside of the coffee house and then bellow for an -aromatic beverage- to please your thirsts.

Secondly, you may simply reveal yourself to me and I shall come for my payment upon completion of the task with the fair and stern warning that deceptions, trickeries, plots, schemes, and attempts to thwart our precious business are met with a cruel and fateful hand.

/ Another reply is left. This time a new letter replaces the old one. /

Have you an answer, my not so upstanding friend?

A gentleman doesn't desire to wait much longer.

Nonetheless, it shall be done.

Opportunity strikes and is taken. A gentleman is left to wonder if tradition and honor are important to you, now that an insect is removed from our Well by your very ambitions. If so, I shall await the means to collect payments so that we might conduct further business.
