Notes Delivered by Messenger to Dash's Knights and Princess

Knights and Princess,

It is now apparent that there are those of the Zhentarim that do not care for us. This is generally not an issue, but the one called Desrah Asher seems intent on convincing Captain Westcar himself that we are a problem, due to her obvious hatred of myself. Even though members of their faction such as her make their whole institution look brutish and impatient, we must remain neutral and not move against any who would oppose the validity of our status.

Anything they ask of us, we should gladly comply with when in Shadowdale. We, as many other citizens of the area, are guests when entering their town. This is not to say we should let them verbally trample us, but we should comply with requests such as crown removal. I promise you that not all Zhentarim are ignorant or misguided. Before remembering I was King, I grew to know many of them and they are good people behind the fear they put out.


-King Dashington Cornelius Thanos XIV

P.S. If anyone should know of an exceptionally silent assassin, please send them my way. There may be work for them. And... This is totally unrelated to the rest of this letter. Promise.

P.P.S. Burn after reading.

P.P.P.S. Actually, you only have to burn the Postscripts.

*A response is penned back in a hastily-written script;*

I don't even like you.
Not even sort of.
I'm not your damn knight!

I know a silent assassin I could send your way...
