| First thing I want to report is, that thrice-cursed mephit who runs Parts and Pieces is a bloody liar. His “sure thing” portal to Gehenna may have worked, but instead of taking us to the Teardrop Palace like he said it would, it deposited us in a cave full of Fire Spiders in Chamada. Poor Namer Korwin was the first one through, and they got him before we could escape. (incidentally, the shoebox enclosed with this report contains Namer Korwin's remains. Please give my condolences to his widow).\\ | First thing I want to report is, that thrice-cursed mephit who runs Parts and Pieces is a bloody liar.

| + | |||
| + | Lady Doyle, | ||
| + | |||
| + | I write to you with joyful news. The process on your son has gone marvelously, and he should be returning to Sigil very soon. Just in time for his party, of course. I wish it were possible for me to attend, but the work of our Society keeps me busy. I hope you will accept my apologies. | ||
| + | |||
| + | I must express some disappointment that you and he felt the Erinyes wings were the best choice. I realize that feathered wings are more striking, but the Fleshwarpers were very eager to try the mechanical wings from the stock of Quadrones we've obtained. Your son's last minute change of heart was somewhat of a letdown. But of course, as they say, the customer is always right. And your patronage means the world to me and the Society. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Naturally, I hope our cooperation with the matter of your son will be enough to ensure your continued support. The supplies we require are rare and expensive, but to a woman of your wealth and status, they should be trivial to obtain. Deliveries to the same location in Torch as before are more than suitable. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Gratefully yours, | ||
| + | Royce Brackett. | ||
| + | |||

| + | |||
| + | Lady Boyle, | ||
| + | |||
| + | Rest assured, we understand the need for discretion. There will be no need to attach your family name to any of the shipping documents. What details that cannot be omitted can be altered creatively to ensure none are the wiser. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The articles you requested are difficult to obtain, but not impossible. However Torch is dangerous territory, and the delivery men are constantly niggling over hazard pay for the journey. Though I'm sure you understand, I must apologize over the need to ask slightly more than standard rates for this work. | ||
| + | |||
| + | To avoid unwelcome questions or examination of ledgers, may we discuss invoicing and payment in person? Perhaps over dinner. Imel's Happy Tongue is a dining experience not to be missed, and of course the Consortium would be happy to treat you. | ||
| + | |||
| + | I look forward to your reply, | ||
| + | |||
| + | Estevan | ||
