After reading a desperate petition from the people of Parlita, His Majesty Knyaz Skender Dragosti commands the Parlita patrol to reconnoitre (that means: check) the peak known as the Balaur and its surroundings in search for a monster allegedly "terrorising the area for years".
Obviously, His Majesty is fully aware that no such monster exists. However, he won’t let stupid and unchristian superstitions be spread among his simple-minded subjects. So, if the so-called monster is in fact a group of bandits (which is most probable), you will have them decapitated (that means: have their heads chopped off) and displayed publicly in Parlita. If the monster turns out to be one or several animals – you shall do the same. I expect these orders to be executed within a week from the day this message is delivered. Otherwise, it will be your heads instead.
