To: Cheshire, The Druid King
May 5th

Dear Sir:

I am writing on behalf of Guildmaster Sir Nyza B. Stillwater and the Silverwind Trading Company, newcomers to Market Day at Cheshire, in regards to troubling incidents we have witnessed during our recent market days. Since our inception to doing business in the Fair City of Cheshire last month, a Faeling by the name of Talia Sunsong has caused pandemonium and damages to our assets as well as the assets of other merchants and their property. Local authorities were dismal in their execution of policing the Market and it would appear this is not the first time incidents such as this have occurred. One such witness to these events is a Hobbit known as Fiesty Lotus who can vouch for the troubles.

In the interest of promoting a fair and safe trading atmosphere, The Plutocracy of Silverwind is requesting additional personal to be available during Market Days to remove possible ruckus, perhaps even banishing the Fae Talia from being allowed on the marketplace premises as well as any other noteworthy heathens. Should Cheshire be unable to provide additional security at the event, we will take decisive action accordingly to safeguard our own assets which may include the hiring of mercenaries to patrol Cheshire on our behalf when we are on the grounds. If the situation proves ineffective to our business thereby proving more trouble than it is worth, we will seek alternatives outside of Cheshire and will wholly recommend to our trading partners to avoid Cheshire for trading purposes due to its lack of professionalism in terms of security and welfare for the common merchant.

Attached is a bill for 500 silver to compensate for mental and physical damages caused by Fae Talia's destructive actions upon one of our guards. In addition, about 1000 silver worth of damage occurred on the scene to a merchant's stand of whose name I was not able to acquire. Your timely response to this important matter is appreciated, and we look forward to doing further business in Cheshire and the surrounding River Lands for the prosperity and goodwill of all.

Health and prosperity,
Sir William Staple, on behalf of Master Merchant Nyza B. Stillwater
Silverwind Trading Company, Plutocracy of Silverwind

    Danger Fae surely knows where to find the writer and the outcome will be delicious!
    A Fae scorned is NOT a pretty sight...
