*Written in soft flowing ink of elegent script*

Dearest Captain,

The wind has blown most troublesome news to my ears. I have heard tell of one of your own, afflicted with outbursts of madness. It saddens me to know of such suffering. The sea winds mournful layments keep me awake for hours. Perhaps there is something that the Family could do to ease the poor sailor's madness? If you are willing to barter for such knowledge perhaps something could be arranged? Please reply when you wish to meet. Be safe till then Captain....


Sincerely,


Jade Bastet
Mistress of the House of Tremere

Dearest Mistress,

There is nay need for such a formality. I regurgitated my title as captain many moons previous, and am now just a regular commoner like most folk. However, your offer of bartering sounds tangible. I would like to meet with you at some point. How about I come to Marble Island on an agreed date and time, and we can take it from there?

Yours sincerely,

Jake.

The family will have a meeting this Sunday at 8:30 p.m. (Sept 16GMT). You are welcome to visit us about this time we will not keep you long enough to understand the affliction. If you wish to postpone it till a later Sunday that will not be difficult to manage. I will see to a strong wind to carry you swiftly to the island if need be. As always...be safe.

Jade Bastet

*The parrot returns the letter. On the other side is a simple scrawl*

I will be there.
