Inefficient as written communication is, it will suffice to cover the distance between our minds these days. I write to express my regret that I will not attend your celebration - though I thank you for thinking of me. I have not forgotten you. As I move to restore my influence I shall be sure to call upon you when the need arises, and I hope that you will respond to such a call. Ours was a very beneficial partnership, and I see no need to curtail further opportunities to collaborate. | Inefficient as written communication is, it will suffice to cover the distance between our minds these days.

I write to bring you happy news on the night of your celebration. I have completed my tour of the syndicates of the Sword Coast. Amn, Cormyr, Waterdeep, and Calimshan prove promising leads. I have communed with the illithid Nihiloor of Xanathar's Thieves Guild and made an ally of him. Through him, we will control the flow of riches through Waterdeep, and extend our influence to far north Luskan. Meanwhile, in the south, I have established 'contacts' in Calimshan - they answer wholly to me. Inland Cormyr will be the trickiest - there I believe we will have to manoeuvre around the restriction of the law, but with the right representation in our control, that too will fall to us. Make merry with your former allies, for we may yet have need of them. Keep them close, and wait for my word. Soon, my friend, neither word nor thought will traverse the Sword Coast without our knowing, nor our desire. | |||
