[A sealed letter for Balestriere Kythaela]

[cmenden]

[A transcribed sending accompanies the letter.]

Listen well. The Maharajah of Qadira has been OFFENDED by the slights of the elves of Spring's Gift. He desires them punished. How shall he do so? He shall make a sport of them. For each ear brought to Qadira, you shall receive 5,000 dinars.

Dear Kythie,

If you choose to pursue the Qadiran bounty, I advise you to be especially cautious.

I do not wish them to kill you or to harm your ears in any way, shape, or form.

However, I understand that my Knight's bloodlust is a thing that can not always be contained and these Spring's Gift elves reside so near to your own fortress.

Estie
