Belariath

To Lord Stormbringer

I was called by Lady L`aquera to a clearing i the forest. Once I arrived I met up with Lady L`aquera and a few others she has called. She said we were off to Valencia to pick up some magical crystals. The journey there was swift but a bit unpleasant via transport portals. Once in Valencia we were split up to take a separate crystal to it's destination. I was tasked with bringing the one back to you my Lord and tho the journey was longer than the trip to Valencia I was successful in bringing the crystal back to your keep for inspection. I hope all appears to me in order.

Your loyal Imperial Guard

I appreciate the work and the care with which it was carried out. As always you have performed flawlessly and I should add that it is good to see you returned to the empire again. It is on such as yourself that we build the foundations.
