::A large, brown envelope labelled 'Urgent, Governor's Eyes Only' would find it's self on Fio's desk. Specifically, on top of the 'In-Tray'. Exactly how the letter found it's self on the desk? There may have been magic involved, a subtle golden hue that son vanished, leaving the letter behind::

Governor Helston,

Let me be brief, as I'm sure your already aware by the time you read this, there have been a number of bombings in the City recently. A number of them have been confirmed as being connected with a figure known as 'The Raven'. I understand that there was another man by the same name that once committed similar acts. I have no doubt that this Raven is not copying the last. In fact, I would be surprised if he even knows of the previous ones existence.

You will also be aware, I'm sure, of the radio and TV broadcast which has brought to light the fact there is currently a bounty on my head, to the sum 100,001 silvers. An odd number I know....This has nothing to do with my research into the Khul-din. It is purely a problem that has occurred between myself and Raven, and apparently I mis-judged just how mad Raven is. There is also the matter of a bounty on Kathryn Batten, Zack of the Watch, Andu Kirost and Brian Ravenlock. I am sure that these people will be more than capable of handling themselves, and the only person on this list I have any fear about would be Zack, aka 'Hellion', one of Icer Shimerscale's children. Claire Farron, the woman in the TV broadcast, will not be left with him for very long, I assure you of that.

I do, however, have two very real fears. One concerns Ammy Spiritor, who is unfortunately at the centre of Raven's insanity. She is suffering from extreme memory loss, and is not in much of a position to defend herself. I would ask if it is possible that you could have a few members of the Watch tail her when she leaves the Bristle Crios grounds.

The other problem is much more personal. Raven has set a bounty on my head, and I have every fear that many may attempt very, unpleasant means of obtaining that bounty. Such as attempting to get to me, via my wife. If it is is your power Governor, then I would beg you to please have someone watch her shop in the marketplace ((the address for Silverblood Lines is added)). Raven can not harm her inside the shop. It's when she comes and goes that worries me.

I'm afraid that, for the time being, I will not be reachable by normal means until Raven is quite dead. I intend to make sure of that myself. Until I have him dealt with, I will not be able to continue with my work into the Khul-din.

I feel I must apologies for this entire mess, and I hope I will be able to set things right, very soon.

Signed, Arthour Chazore-Silverblood

She sent the letter to Bristle Crios, since she was not sure how else to contact the man.

Dear Mr. Silverblood,

I have, at the time of this writing, forwarded copies of your letter on to the various Watch houses throughout the city. While the Watch does not report to the Governor (despite popular myth which I seem unable to dispel), I have recommended that they pursue several courses of action. The fact that one of the targets cited in your letter is one of their members should, as the vernacular goes, light a fire under their backsides.

In specific, I have made mention of both Ammy Spiritor and your spouse's shop. If at all possible, I would recommend that they not put themselves in peril by leaving a protected compound, but I can by no means prevent them from doing so, if that is their wish.

I wish you well, and urge you to stay safe.

::His reply came a few days latter::

Governor Helston,

I'd like to thank you for the help you were able to provide. There may be need of some sort of clean up at one of the piers at the Docks. Raven is currently safely behind bars and I hope he will stay there.

Thank you once again Governor Helston for what you were able to do. I appreciate it greatly.

Arthour Chazore-Silverblood
