Working for the Orc

This missive was delivered to a Guild Library as some pages of paper blown in on a magic wind. The paper and the ink are all from Kanloaise and do not appear to anything but mundane.

My master, recently returned, sent all that could be spared from the Monastery out into Steel Mountains and the lands beyond. I have been dispatched to the halls of Sachen Silverhands, the orcish chief on Highvale. The place is rough and uncouth and I have been pressed into service as a clerk. A month ago news came that Regaldo's Ranger had come to harm and that their property tax was due. Soon after the remaining members of the mentioned group were brought forward to Great Hall and given employment. I was dictated a missive to a Valazarius of Na'fa, whom I am lead to understand is an up and coming merchant factor in the city. The details seemed trivial and tedious but Silverhand was very particular about its contents. I was then instructed to draw up a contract with Masters Trigg and Matt as the remaining members of Regaldo's Rangers of a sum of 200 silver pennies each for a successful delivery of the missive and a return reply.

In little less than a week later they returned with two wooden chests and a note from Julian, Valezarius' own clerk.
