On Rufus' desk in his office, open to all family members, sits a new piece of correspondence sticking out noticeably from the rest. Along with this new letter are far older bits of material; vellum, papyrus and even a wax tablet. The writing on these is in a variety of languages; only the first letter is written entirely in common.


Rufus-

It was precisely where you said it was, and thank Armadyl for that. Nestled into the hills like this, sheltered from the worst of the wind there's less chance of a traveller stumbling upon it by accident. I found recent evidence of temporary habitation as you suspected, but nothing long-term. These wolds sap one's strength and wits by degrees. I don't think anyone wants to stay here long.

Your father's records are not as comprehensive as your own but the relevant bits of information were easy enough to find. I enclose everything. I do not suspect these notes have been disturbed; the implications of which I'd rather not dwell on. Certainly I do not feel alone.

My abilities do not cover the wealth of tongues within. Kharidian scattered among Middle Common, Infernal and, curiously, words unique to the elven dialect of Baxtorian's kingdom are all present in seemingly random patterns along with languages I've never encountered. I can get as far as "let the adeptus gather" and then I am at a loss to continue. Which of these is the contract and which the instructions I leave to your expertise.

To answer the question suffixed to your last letter, I do not recognise that name but I am a journalist and do not dabble in such things by choice. Frankly I wish to be shot of all this and consider my debt settled upon receipt of the attached.

For what it is worth I consider your path to be the right one, and I wish you luck but I beg you proceed with caution. I fear that an unwise decision in your dealings with such as Her may prompt an ill conclusion.

Yeah, I really should get around to writing that introduction but I just can't be bothered. It's like, I made this roleplay so I could roleplay, not write a thread, y'know? I'unno, I'm probably just lazy but I'm happy with my choices. One man's trash is another's treasure, and one man's cash buys another's pleasure.

RP TONIGHT WHAT-OH.

After that's done we have a job to be getting on with; we've been commissioned to help furnish a meal for some very special customers. Rufus will explain all IC. One man's trash is another's treasure, and one man's cash buys another's pleasure.

Tonight was a write-off, but that's alright, IRL comes first. Every cloud has a silver lining; this particular silver lining came as I was dealing with some coffee shakes (I don't normally drink the stuff, so it hits me like the proverbial train) and was running through the plot in my head when I realised I wanted to take the plot - tonight's roleplay included - in a slightly different direction. That wouldn't have been able to happen if we'd done it tonight, so it's all good.

We'll find a time in the week when you're all free. For my part, I can't do Thursday or Friday this week but every other night is fine. If we provisionally book in Wednesday at, say, 11pm BST again, how does that sit for all of you? One man's trash is another's treasure, and one man's cash buys another's pleasure.

Weeeellll tonight didn't happen. We're gonna do this once more - provisionally booking MONDAY 25TH APRIL - 11:00 PM BST.

If this is no good for any of you, let me know in advance and we can reschedule. If I don't hear from you before then, I'm going to assume you're cool with it happening whether or not you show. After this event we can get on with the business side of the business and we won't have to stress over scheduled events.

After feedback, we're going to try instead for TUESDAY 26TH APRIL instead, same time - 11:00 PM BST. Does this suit the rest of you? One man's trash is another's treasure, and one man's cash buys another's pleasure.

Great RP the other night, perfect 5/7, we'll get on to business shortly. I'll start that in a day or two when I'm feeling better; I know some of you become more available shortly and that'll help with scheduling. One man's trash is another's treasure, and one man's cash buys another's pleasure.
