For the Constabulary, a Question of Overreach.

[Carnath-Emory]

To: Chief Constable Woburn

I have been remiss in conveying my personal gratitude for your assistance during the Chairwoman's
weeks of recuperation. You will accept my thanks now, I hope: the personnel loaned to our use
provided unconventional services while enduring inopportune hours; their presence was nothing but
professional, and ensured the Chairwoman's security in a manner which the Militia is uniquely
ill-suited to accomplish unassisted.

On the brief oversight of which we have already spoken, I place my faith in your capacity for sanctions;
no more need be said than that.

Subsequent to recent events, the matter remains ongoing. While clearly the Chairwoman is largely
recovered from those injuries sustained a month past, she is yet the recipient of certain threats,
some more credible than not. During this past week, the Militia has supplied her with a small guard
(a standard two-man rotation); this was an inappropriate use of their time when it began, and as of
today it comes to an end. Count yourself notified: I leave to your judgement the question of whether
a Constabulary unit might replace their presence, or if one is required at all.

Two letters are dispatched from the Myrkentown Constabulary's headquarters.

The first:

To: Marshall Ariane Emory

Marshall Emory

Your thanks are gladly received. In return, please accept my thanks for the continued assistance provided by yourself and your Militia volunteers during the Constabulary's recent reorganisation. Their discipline and decorum are a credit both to yourself, and to Myrken Wood.

Given that they are volunteers, however, I agree that it is inappropriate and unreasonable to expect them to serve as personal bodyguards to the Chairwoman, for all that they have proven willing and capable in such a role. These men have homes and families to consider in this increasingly difficult winter.

I shall contact the Chairwoman directly to discuss her revised security arrangements.

Sincerely

Edric Woburn
Chief Constable, Myrkentown Constabulary

Shortly thereafter:

To: Defence Committee Chairwoman Agnieszka River

Chairwoman River

I have been recently notified by Marshall Emory that the Militia is no longer to be responsible for your personal safety and your guards are thus to be withdrawn, effective immediately.

The Myrkentown Constabulary will provide a replacement guard complement of two Street Constables, to be stationed at your domicile for your protection during the hours of darkness. An escort will also be provided between that location and your offices at the Meetinghouse, where the existing security should be adequate to ensure your safety while you carry out your official duties.

If you require a guard contingent in any other circumstances please notify my office no less than three days in advance, and we will do what we can with the resources available to us. Your safety is, of course, a priority, but I am sure I do not need to tell you how busy we have been since the town was retaken. Thank you in advance for your patience and forbearance.

Respectfully

Edric Woburn
Chief Constable, Myrkentown Constabulary

Mr. Woburn,

Seeing as the Night is when People are most like to break in and carry me off to a Lynch Trial, it is very appreshiated. I am not quite Reckovered enough where I could fight off five or six of them from a sound sleep. I need another few weeks and some serious re Training.

You will not need to be worryed about the Escort, I do need to be seen as strong. Because I am. So please send them home, at this point nobody will attack me in the Streets and if they do they have another thing coming.

I am very appreshiative of your good work. Please continyue to do it well. If you could find out who was behind the three Lynch Murders I would be even more appreshiative, I know it is tough with feelings they way they are but I'm sure you agree we just can't let murderers walk free in Myrken.

Sinserely,
Agnieszka Kaczmarek River
Chairwoman of the Myrken Wood Defense Comitey
