Letters From Nathxena
A Letter to Sariel (29 Flamerule 1494)
Sarry, I’m writing to you from the depths of Menzoberranzan, so I hope this letter does actually reach you. I’ve been staking out House Fey-Branche for about a tenday now and it's becoming tiring. I miss the sun, I miss our friends, and most of all I miss you. I can’t help but lose concentration when I think about holding you each night. The nights are so cold down here and the solitude makes the biting chill even worse. I yearn for the warmth and softness of your body against mine. I am tormented by even the thought of running my hand through your silk hair, until we fall asleep in each others' embrace. If all things go well it should only be another tenday until I can leave this wretched cave and make my way back to you. But enough of the romance. I’ve found something big and I might need your help along with the girls on this one. They’re again trying at something to gain power in the city, despite their setbacks. I’m not sure exactly what it is, but I shot dead a spy of theirs just last night. She had a scroll in her pouch with the wax seal of the house. On this scroll was a series of words, scribbles, some kind of magic, looks like it's written in code. It might be a spell scroll. I’ve placed it inside this package and I’m hoping you can hopefully figure this out while I’m on my way back. I love you so much and I hope I get to see you soon. XX -Xena

Piatran's Clothiers Order
Dear Piatran, I trust the store is going well, and there are plenty of orders for you to fulfil. I hope the Watch hasn’t given you any trouble about any ‘imported’ goods… and no I will not be needing any this time. I’d like to put in the following order: - A black full length gown with sleeves
- A warm grey cloak for the coming colder months
- A pair of black heels to match the gown
- A replacement of the blue shorter dress that I ordered two months ago now. It’s currently a little beyond repair (don’t ask) I’ll be attending a rather opulent ball with Sariel in three months’ time, so try your best to have her eyes on me rather than any stuck up prick in the room. After all, I’m the only stuck up prick she really needs. I’ll be back in town in three tendays, so I’ll be around to pick them up then. Sincerely, Your best client, -Nathxena

A Letter to Sariel (30 Flamerule 1494)
Sarry, My cover has been blown and I’m on the run. I’m currently up in a small cave above the city. Despite it being cold and damp I’ve made it reasonably cosy. I managed to steal a couple of blankets from the inn I was staying in before I was ambushed, so I’m not going to be shivering all night, just lonely. I was caught with my pants down… I know you’re jealous right now but still, I was asleep as they broke in. After I killed that spy everything started to lead back to me and I hadn’t a clue that they were on to me. A brutish drow woman broke into my room with thunderous rage, smashing the door down and shouting. I propped up awake as a greatsword was making its way onto my bed. This woman goes by the name of Grera Jusztaerth. She’s a solid six feet tall and has a reasonably large frame for a Drow. After I dodged her first swing I dislodged the sword from her hand and pushed her back with my legs. Yes, those athletics classes are paying off. It was a tough fight but I managed to get a large rock from the ceiling above to fall on her after she struck it with her sword. This gave me enough time to get my things and run. As I was running away I thought that it may have been a nightmare but the adrenaline in my blood as I was dashing through the streets without pants on was real enough. I remember Grera from a couple of days ago. She's a mercenary hired to kill and assassinate the toughest of targets. So I guess I finally made the list! Hopefully I get to put a bolt between this idiot’s brows and end this. Don’t worry about me, this has been a fair wakeup call to leave as quickly as I can. I’ll be getting a teleport from Silverymoon as soon as I remember a tunnel out of here. I hope you and the Arrowheads are okay, and not too hungover from Emmy’s mornday. I love you and I miss you,
See you soon, -Xena

A Letter To Sariel (Undated)
Hello my love,
While I'm away I need you to feed Tiger.
I know he can be quite a pain to deal with sometimes, so if he isn't eating get help from Valna. She'll know what to do.
He needs:One live mouse every six days.
His water bowl changed once a day.
I'm expecting an order of clothes from Piatran and he has organised to have it delivered once he's finished. Could you please have a look through it, and make sure everything is there and looks lovely. Try to picture me in each piece that's in there. There's a few that I know you're going to love. I was hoping to keep these pieces as a surprise, but alas, that has been spoiled by my urgent leave.
I'm hoping this whole fiasco with my forebears will be over shortly, but if it isn't, know that I'll always be thinking of you.
Love,
-Xena
