Dorian, what happened in the Imperial City? Did the guards get involved? What happened to Marcus?

Boss’s neighbors were arrested after a long chase around the city because they didn’t want to pay a fine for kidnapping him. He’s fine, just tired and shocked that his neighbor wanted to build a bakery over his family cemetery after digging up the bodies.

Hello 👋

How are you? I’m rather bored caring for the baby and the husband’s bakery, I would much rather be doing some governmental advising or espionage or torturing Talos worshippers so-! What’s new from the Second Era?

Yours,

Haarfindelwe

We have a brand new ages-old we-forgot-to-mention-it-to-the-mortals Daedric Prince, which is, let me check my notes, a second one in this Era. It is taking over most of my correspondence nowadays, because I am the expert on the "daedric bullshit" of the Empire, quite possibly of all Tamriel. Technically there is Divayth Fyr, but since he is not real, he doesn't answer his mail.

Unfortunately, I have absolutely nothing on this Ithelia. We don't have any records of her, I've never met her. "But you are Abnur Tharn! You can't just not know! That's not possible." If you have any reliable way how to get through to people that you have certain gaps in your knowledge, let me know. I've sunk as low as to flat out admit it. Repeatedly. It did not work.

Meanwhile the Empire is preparing for the harvest of grapes, first one that, fingers crossed, will not be affected by aforementioned daedric bullshit, dragon bullshit (my bad, we've been over that) or vampire bullshit. There are festivities expected, so since I am also officially the overlord of Nibenay, I have most of that on my table as well.

And along the court there have been very pointed questions when am I finally going to officiate my wedding with Sir Edrien. At this point those questions have lost all subtlety.

And Mara have mercy, I can't very well explain to them why I can't do that. Should I go along with it? But the wedding will not be legal then. As a public figure I cannot very well afford that. Not to mention this is a few loose lips away from another civil war.

Do tell me about the baby and the bakery. I need such a mundane talk as a balm on my nerves.

This case against my neighbors is going nowhere. They want me to consider selling part of my family cemetery to them in exchange for settling for 20,000 Septims. I just want them to promise they won’t bother my dreams anymore. And stop trying to entice my silt striders to carry things for them.

My lady friend broke up with her betrothed after finding he cheated on her. Earlier today she asked if I was interested in having dinner with her. I said yes!

I still don’t understand why my neighbors were trying to use a flame Atronach to scare me at night

As for other matters, I’ve had a bad rash that isn’t going away

Hello! How are you? We’ve not spoken in a while, have we? - Haarfindelwe

Oh! Hello Haarfindelwe, I'm doing just fine. I'm less bored because Miraak is finally letting me leave the house, we went to solitude to visit my friends at the Dragonborn museum and then he took me to the throat of the world on Odahviing to visit Paarthurnax and catch up with him. I've had a pretty good week overall.

How have you been doing?

[the-tharns-speak]

Goodness! My husband has been kidnapped! Oh, whatever shall I do?! I am swooning! - Haarfindelwe

You ought to send out a searching party. Depending on how much you want him back, the specialisation of the searching party should be reflected on it.

Send out a searching party whatever your desires. It looks well in the public eye.
