The envelope was closed with a wax seal, a stylized 'R' printed over a crossed staff and scepter imprinted in the wax. Inside the envelope awaited a thick parchment, scented with a noticeable hint of fine cologne, with writing scrawled across. Clearly written by hand, and seemingly done with quill and ink. Not over the top, but the kind of work that would cost money these days.

Salutations,
	
	It is my personal hope that this writing finds you in the best of health. I am writing to congratulate you on your recent good fortune, and to offer my respectful welcome into my community.

In the past, leadership of this community has been inexcusable. For that, you have my deepest apologies.

However, from this day forward, that changes. As the newly appointed head of this wonderful venture, it is my personal duty to ensure each of you know where you belong and what your responsibilities are.

To that end, I have decided to host several meetings over the coming nights. Your presence is requested at the first of these meetings. Attendance is mandatory.

[right]Sincerely,
Riccard[/right][/i][/h3][/color]

Attached to the parchment with a paperclip was a business card. Thick and pristinely white, the card had only a time and date on the front, with an address on the back. Inquiry would show that the address belonged to an old bar, in the downtown area. The date was the following night, and the time was midnight. Written inside the envelope was a note, clearly meant to only be read by the recipient.
