This is an official notice and so forth that I'm borrowing Warden Ellis for an errand in Edgehall. That's South — so if anyone takes a mind to tail us, please advise them to pack a warm jacket.
Should the Gallows be assaulted by hordes of ravening Darkspawn within the next week or so, Sister Sara is correct: You ought not lick one directly. Contact one of the remaining Wardens to lick one for you. I've not yet spoken with Mlle. Adrasteia, and certainly may not comment upon her tongue, but she is reported to be a capable mage in other respects. Will you let me know what you make of her?
Rowntree told me that he would speak with you. I confess to cowardice in not doing so myself; suffice to say that I trust him in this, and in his faith of you.
[Matthias reads and notes the letter and rereads parts of it, sometimes during working hours, sometimes not--it's very something to be asked an opinion and to be known enough that people who you like and respect are conversing about you and would say things like trust in faith when it comes to you.
Thus does Matthias--very painstakingly, with great attention to his handwriting and several drafts scrapped for their inadequacy--composes a reply that (thanks to those pains taken) will be delivered too late to be read before Isaac departs for his Edgehall errand.]
Isaac,
Your errand and, your Location and, Warden Ellis, were noted in the Records of the Forces Division.
I will Learn about Mlle. Adrasteia. I know not to lick Dark Spawn. And, when you are returned, I can tell you what I have make of her.
I spoke with Enchanter Rowantree. He said he had talked to you first and I told him what I thought. I do not think you are a Coward. I said this to.
Thank You.
- Matthias.
[The letter will be waiting for Isaac whenever he returns. Matthias continually exerts his best efforts to not go and fetch it back and destroy it.]
