I, Giscard Guillaume, Lord of Lothbury Estate, Interim Governor of the Myrken Wood Judiciary; to Lochlain Kohler, Captain of the Gray Lancers etc.;: Greetings.

Doubtless word has reached you of the challenges which Myrken Wood presently faces, and the extremities of our response to such. Construction proceeds accordingly, but as you might imagine, in the aftermath of the Fivefold Blight, we suffer for want of trained and able men. A contingency of soldiers, recently of Thessilane service, have entered ours; alas, although their skill is unquestionable, they number but twenty bodies. This is insufficient to our need. We hereby call upon the Gray Lancers, our traditional companions in time of trouble, to ride to our aid at the soonest availability, to be compensated in coin in accordance with our pre-existing understanding, and with the gratitude of all Myrken Wood. Our wall is purposeless if not well-policed.

Done by my hand at Lothbury Estates, this 16th day of February.

Giscard Guillaume.

(From Kohler's player. =) )


From Lochlain Kohler, esquire.

Due to recent events we of the Gray Lancers have been busy as of late with the construction of the new training halls. However, we can send men to man the ramparts of the walls for decent compensation. I think our lord will join the men sent, for the time being as is his wants, and as it is, I can never understand, nor try to understand his wants.

Written in a distinctive, floruished and oddly looping script is the next paragraph.

One question. Why exactly do you want the Gray Lancers, who are usually tactitioners on the battlefield, and not usually general army, for your walls? Do you expect something less mundane to charge the walls?

It changes back to Kohler's handwriting.

Sorry, m'lord's question, not mine, good Sir.

In any case, please respond as necessary and request how many men are needed and my lord will send as many as we can.

Lochlain Kohler.
