Kyssandra/Letter to House Linlaig

Lakaenan Linlaig, Ruler of House Linlaig
Arandus Linlaig, Mayor of Leth Deri'el

My humblest greetings, and thank you for taking the time to read this letter. My name is Kyssandra Grimslate and I am a Ranger by nature and Horse Trader by business. Over the past several years I have cultivated a strong business in the wrangling, sale, and re-sale of horses to adventurers across the lands - a business strong enough that I have become known as -the- person to speak to when in the market.

I am writing to you today about the magnificent breeds that you produce, the Haramorlam and Kirmalia. I am aware that in the past the brokerage of these breeds was handled for you by Ishtvan. However, it is my understanding that he has not been seen for quite some time, leading many to believe that an unfortunate event may have befallen him. In the years since his last appearance, many adventurers have come to forget about the existence of your breeds altogether! I would not want knowledge of these fine steeds to go forgotten to the anlas of time, and as such would like to propose a deal. I would like to offer to become your new horse broker. I would be happy to handle all aspects of the sale, including pricing and advertisement, training, and negotiating the transaction. I would then use a Trader in good standing, such as my current associate Trader Greyhallow, to complete the transfer of property.

By making these breeds available for select purchase again, you will also be renewing interest in, and building the respect for, House Linlaig as a whole. Many will have questions about where I was able to secure such beautiful horses, and I will be happy to speak highly of your family name. Many will marvel at your breeding prowess!

Not only that, I can request that anyone interested in purchasing one of your beautiful horses meet with me to negotiate in Leth Deri'el. It will create a renewed vigor for tourism to a place that is often seen as just a rest stop for travelers between Crossing and Shard. What a fantastic opportunity to promote the beauty and wonders of the area, such as the sacred Sana'ati Dyaus tree, Izma Ru'ef University, or the Ankis Dir Observatory. Not to mention the boost to the local economy as more adventurers visit your taprooms, inns, and the surrounding shops.

Under my proposal, I would be willing to offer you 20% of the proceeds of each sale, with the remaining 80% going to cover my overhead expenses, my time, and for the services of the trader. As I am sure you are aware, just the training of a horse can take upwards of 16 anlean of time, which prevents me from pursuing any other activities for long stretches of time!

I eagerly await your response to this proposal, and hope that we can come to an arrangement that would mutually benefit not just House Linlaig, but Leth Deri'el, too.

Respectfully yours,
Kyssandra Grimslate
