Marcus opens the document, it's short but written on quality parchment in flowing script. It says:
"To those who accept the bond of Flamstred and with it the swordguard mission to Aithe:
My thanks and my debt. Dark days have come to the Moonshae Isles again, and we are in need of the strong and the valiant. Be it known that I personally shall reward four thousand pieces of gold, above and beyond your pay, to each adventurer in your band who comes to Caer Callidyrr and asks for it, assuming the blades arrive safely in the hands of the Lord of Aithe. I will offer more, at that time, to those among you who will give us substantial aid against the foes that beset us in the Moonshaes - dark men skulking behind witless pawns who may try to seize that which you guard. Bring this letter to me in Caer Callidyrr, and accept the thanks, welcome and hospitality of:
Tristan Kendrick
High King of the Ffolk"
Flamstred finally sits, tapping the ashes out of his pipe and pulling out his tobacco pouch to refill the bowl. He nods at you all and waits for your reaction/questions/response.
Holgrim belches loudly and whistles, "Wheeeew! That's the big guy... heh..." And he pats Howie on the back.
