Dear Scipio,
I am glad to see you practicing your letters, and of the honest and valorous work you are no doubt doing. We have recently returned from a campaign to the Deep Roads, wherein we lost Senior Warden Hansen to his Calling. If you knew him well, I regret that you had to hear this way, but now you know. There was also a business up in Weisshaupt with some demons and blood magic and a dragon, but it was all a lot of nonsense and aggravation and I am quite glad to be done with it.
I hope you and Rafael are staying out of trouble. I am too far away to bail you out or stop anyone from killing you, so keep your head on your shoulders until we meet again.
Teren
P.S. If your cohorts should like a shirt like yours, you know where to send them.
because mj said it was ok, a very crumpled letter--
