To His Eternal Grace, Knyaz Brencis,
I adore how the valley prospers under your rule. You brought wealth and order where there was once only hardship and injustice. And yet… my heart aches for more. I am consumed by a yearning that no one else can satisfy.
I desire to walk beside you as one of the vrakhiri.
Please, allow me to serve you beyond these mortal bounds! I swear to prove my usefulness – my arcane knowledge is vast, and my talents lie at your disposal.
Your most devoted servant,
Catnica
The Humble Witch of Boar’s Back
