The young acolyte approached brother Lawrence with a dreamy smile on her face. "Brother? We have just had a visit from one of our brethren, newly arrived in Cordor. You weren't here. He asked me to transmit this message to you." She appeared to be blushing slightly. "I think he wants to speak to you about your announcements! And... well...
I think we should invite him in to our evening supper! Or maybe...
maybe he needs a
guide around town!
I could do that for him! I could show him some of the shops, maybe the gondolas..." The girl began to twirl around softly with her eyes closed, the smile on her face growing larger. "...and we could go to a nice place to eat, and..." She stopped suddenly, realizing where she was. "I- I mean,
meet, of course.
ALL... meet. All of us, because... of your
announcements! I mean... if he needed one, of course.
WE. Needed one." She cast a look of most adorable confusion at brother Lawrence for the briefest of moments before adding, "Uhm... I... better go." She pressed the note into his hand and traipsed quickly toward the alcove door, a light tune humming its way happily through her tender lips.

Brother Lawrence,
I have word from Our Mother of Light Si'neela in Ne'sek that you may have news of the gravest import. Only newly detached to Khem, I readily received her permission to make the journey here to Cordor. I am at your disposal to discuss the situation, whatever it may be, and aid you in whatever manner possible to the limit of my abilities.
I am currently staying at the inn just across the way. Please contact me at your earliest convenience.
Yours in the service of our Lord,
Jan Singh
