[Bordermarch] U.pdate from the waterways

[Lathrop, Dave]

Captain Brule,

As usual, Nomis's perception of matters is a bit skewed.
I must believe that the Baron Bourbon and coke shall remain true to his promise to deliver to us, for a fair price, the lands due west of his newly acquired holdings. Our dealings in the past have been most beneficial to all concerned, although our help in securing his recent position as Baron did deplete our stores of the precious coco nut.

 Unfortunately, you must retrieve Nomis once again. Explain to him that he was ensorcelled by the Lady Jimwat! A fair maiden she is most certainly not. She is a ancient dwarf witch who has been tricking those with weak minds for as long as any can remember. I'm afraid the juice he claimed to have collected is only a squeezing from the radishes the locals tribute to Lady Jimwat for ridding their village of rats. Since nothing else has worked on my food taster, and Nomis hasn't yet secured the real Jimwat bush, we shall try the radish squeezing and hope for some small success.

HE Santiago

You Excellency,
    I have met your friend Nomis, He is a funny little fellow. He came
onboard acting as though demons possessed him. He was rattling on about
conspirisies and pigs and a terrible itch... I tried to explain how to
handle the itch but he was not interested. I think he said the Jimwat
bush caused a rash. I gave him a potion that i recieved from an Inn when
I had the itch but he kept saying it looked like custard.. I tried to
assure him I meant no harm and that if he didn't stop with the delusions
i would be forced to to make him taste my dagger. At this he lost him
mind completely. He produced a pigeion from his pants, tied a vile to
its foot and released it. What he did next surprised me and my crew. He
jumped overboard and began to swim away, however he was swimming back
towards the land he just left. Apparently the pigs were good company and
he wanted more.

   I must leave you at this time, The crew is making a terrible racket
on deck...I am afraid to see what they are doing.

Chrestien Brule
