				It was a late morning somewhen during the tail-end of Thanaria's long autumn and as usual for Southern Ilarion, it was raining heavily. Of course, the weather could be ignored if one was staying at a place comfortable enough, just like Gabrielle was doing right now. The little inn was farther away from the center of the city, yet it was still considered quite respectable (which just meant that they paid taxes to the council of Aredan). <br><br>There was a soft, yet urgent knock on the door of the room where Gabrielle was sleeping. A young woman, most likely a servant, stood at the door with an apprehensive look on her face, a heavy official-looking letter clutched in her tiny hands. <br><br>

				At the first knock, Gabrielle's hand snaked out from under the covers to the gun belt hung on the post. He grabbed the heavy steel and brass revolver like an old friend, and held it as he got up and walked to the door. Was he expecting trouble? No, but sometimes trouble came uninvited. He opened the door slightly and looked at the woman.<br><br>"I assume that's for me?" he asks, though from his tone it's fairly obvious he doesn't expect an answer. He reaches out for the letter with his free hand, the gun lowered and behind the door.

				"It is, sir," the young woman replied nervously. She hesitated for a moment, then spoke again:"There is also a man downstairs who asked for you. He says he has an offer for you and that he knows who you are." <br><br>Her eyes were downcast.

				He takes the letter absently. "Best go back. I'll be down shortly," he says as he closes the door. He dresses quickly, strapping on his guns and checking the spare cylinders. Just because someone knows him doesn't mean that person likes him, after all.He opens the letter after dressing, looking it over briefly as he gets his clothes set properly.

				The letter was written in a neat, elegant script on expensive paper. The message was as follows:<br><br><em>Dear mister Jericho,<br><br>We have need of your skills and will provide generously if you would hear us out. We will see you in the city hall. Do not keep us waiting for long.</em><br><br>There was no name or signature, simply the seal of the Ilarionan government.
