Fw: [Elfsea] The Search for Lady Sabine continues....

[Jenny]

Your Most Honourable Excellency, My Beloved Baron-

Though I ride West to lovely Trelac on this errand of great importance,
please let me offer my word and my blade that I shall stand, at the Battle
of Three Kings, ready to defend Glorious Elfsea at your command.

I carry and will convey the gratitude of all of Elfsea to the noble Earl
Aaron for his courageous rescue of our dear friend. With all due haste and
swiftness, the Lady Sabine shall be safely back in our lands before our War
 Party departs for Rosenfeld.

I fear though, that in her devotion to Your Excellencies and to Great
Elfsea, Lady Sabine will wish to accompany us to battle. This may prove
perilous with such unscrupulous rogues lurking about. So that she may be
protected from further mischief and harm, I offer myself and my blade, with
whatever protection I may provide, as her guard, at Your Excellencies'
pleasure, for the weekend.

Should I need assistance in this endeavour, should the unruly brigands
prove many and persistent, His Excellency Jarl Timo has promised me his
assistance in defending our goodly Chronicler. I feel confident that the
presence of such imposing strength and military prowess will thwart any act
of deviltry that may be in the works. The gods only know what these
scurrilous brutes are capable of. (Though my Don would remind you that the
most scurrilous brute is no match for his scurrilous Lady Cadets).

Ever in Service and Awaiting Your Command,

Lady Genna Chiaramonte
Color-Coordinated Cadet to Don Valentyn
