<strong>Name:</strong>GM Post<br/><strong>Date/Time:</strong>January 1st, 2018<br/><strong>Status:</strong>--<br/><strong>Notes/Triggers:</strong>At the law office of Mr. Zilby.<br/><strong>Tagging: </strong>Rick (marauder13)<br/><hr/><hr/><br/>Zilby raised an eyebrow and said, “Well, legal matters aren't fast. Not as a general rule.<em>However</em>, I can speed this through. It'll be twenty-four hours before I can finalize anything. Should something befall Harald, you suddenly having the same legal benefits as next-of-kin can look incredibly suspicious, so at least a twenty-four hour wait is prudent to protect the both of you. I'm aware of why you want all of this, mind, and we both know this particular matter will be rendered null after the matter of Calla is avenged, but human authorities can be...tricky.”<br/><br/>He read over the paper and said, “Yes, this looks fine. While there's a few nuances in language I will need to correct for USA-centric laws, this should hold up fine.”<br/><br/>He took a few notes with a black and gold pen on a yellow memo pad and said, “Authorities are unlikely to release autopsy information before twenty-four hours anyways, so the wait works to your benefit. Now, that being said, I'm glad you're here. I trust your judgement since it doesn't look as though you have tried to slip some sort of untoward legal trick on Harald, who, bless his heart, has no acumen for this sort of thing. I received a troubling letter from Calla not even a month ago, but I was barred to secrecy by her, though I do not wholly understand<em>why</em>. Well, 'letter' is being generous with the definition of what it is, I suppose. As she is gone, I am free from my oath, though I wish that I had not been freed from it under these circumstances. It was not an Autumn legal matter, you must understand, but something very personal to her, but I genuinely do not know what to make of it. Both her and Harald trust me greatly and often consult me for advice, but this was...different. Given her death, I wonder if you might be able to make more sense of this letter than I would. If you would like it, I will hand over a copy of it, though I shall retain the original for record-keeping purposes.”<br/><br/>He pushed his glasses up on his nose, as they were attempting to slide off due to their great weight.<br/><br/>“As for the whiskey and croissants? I made both. I find being a lawyer satisfying, but it doesn't exactly tap into the<em>spirit</em>of who I am, so to speak.”
