Arc: The Trial of Harvey Morningdew

9 October 27

Lady Alwynneria -

I am grateful for your willingness to handle the Morningdew matter; I doubt many in Stormwind’s legal community would be so principled, but the Duchess Esprit and Lady Sintha both speak so highly of you that you were my first thought. I am enclosing herewith a cheque for an advance against fees and expenses.

I am also enclosing a letter I received this morning from one Roper of the Ebon Blade; the man is a former agent of SI:7 and entirely trustworthy in this matter, despite his outward manner – I apologize for his language. I have kept a faithful copy of said letter for my own records. For my own part, I am looking into what might be done to contain Miss Westwind, as well as into the matter of Lord Amerith; I believe the information regarding the victims and their alleged ties to the Cult of the Damned is most salient for your own purposes.

If you would like to be accompanied to your first – or any – meeting with Morningdew, I am at your service. Should you have any difficulties in the way of public sentiment, please advise; you will have the full support of Houses Fallon and Esprit in the matter.

With best regards,
Your obdt. svt.,
Vice Adm. Siamus Fallon

Enclosed with the letter is Roper’s letter, as well as a check for a rather startling amount of money.
