*Note found on black-robed mage in bandit tower:

Ashrem,

Be so kind as to not bore me with your petulance. I should not have to discipline you with cold steel and the will of our Lady, though I would love to do so. So I will keep this simple: If you fail to deliver supplies one more time, I shall kill you. If you again leave such obvious evidence, I shall kill you. If you so much as annoy me further, I shall kill you.

So quit your whining and deliver the next shipment by Richfest. Be sure to stay well south and east of Hommlet before heading north. The militia is on high alert. And tell your man in town to keep his eyes peeled. Those "adventurers" from Verbobonc should be arriving any day now.

-L
