[center][b]Girvus Rynir. Head of the Rynir House and governor of Awom[/center][/b] Standing in front of a window, the old man that had been the leader of both the High House as well the governor of the Awom province for some time, stared at the scene in front of him. From the high tower, where his study room was located, he had some good view on the fortress of Hials. How the the place was defended and would be protected by two firm and sturdy massive stone walls. The grim expression on his face revealed that the man was thinking about some kind of thoughts. After a few moments, Girvus turned around. [b]''This damn cold.''[/b] He mumbled, though he was dressed quite with clothes that should keep the cold out, he couldn't help it. Somehow he kept feeling the chill breeze as if he was outside. But he wouldn't blame it on his age. That would be something his pride wouldn't accept. Walking to his desk, the man muttered more curses in the direction of the season that now held the land in her icy claws. Sitting in his comfortable chair, the old man took out some papers. Mostly letters that had been sent to his address, requiring his attention. Some came from the Senate, one from the Emperor and some others from people he had appointed to govern the settlements that were present in the province. Calmly he took out the one that came from the Emperor. But like he had expected, it was a regular kind of letter. Wanting to know how the province was doing. If it could provide the expected tax. Grunting, Girvus started to write a response. It took him around ten minutes when he was done Putting the response letter away, he started to work on writing a response on the other letters that had been sent to him as well. However, as he read the last letter, Girvus raised both his eyebrows. [b]''Oh my...''[/b] He mumbled, slightly surprised at first. It was regarding some rumours popping up and the question what do about it. Knowing from experiences that the commoners always spoke about things they had little experience with, Girvus decided to write another party. The Rangers. Writing a polite letter that he desired that the rumours should be investigated, he hoped that the rumours would either stop and vanish or maybe hear who started it. Girvus then however didn't stop writing letters. His attention and thoughts were now turned to other people. Writing a letter towards one of his 'agents'. One that had the name of ''[i]Calais Cousland[/i]. A member of the Rangers, but one that was loyal to him. A true asset for his own goals, Girvus grinned as he started to write the letter. [hider=the letter towards Calias] [center][i]Calais, I have a rather simple order. I want you to travel towards Deliar and search a few capable men that want to listen to some coin. It seems rumours are starting and I will use it to my advantage. You're ordered to round some group and create some turmoil in the city. Nothing too big, but make the rumours spread faster. I have then a second assignment once you have finished this one.[/center][/hider] Clearly not addressing himself, knowing that it would be too risky, he started on another one. One with the name [i]Valfunde Perar[/i], the captain of the city guard of Deliar. And head of the Lesser House of Perar. [hider=For Valfunde] [center][i]Lord Valfunde, I hope you're fine, just as fine when we last exchanged some letters. I heard of several rumours that are maybe making some unrest in the province. As governor, I want to tighten the security. I want you to make sure that there is a going to be a restriction so that the commoners won't start to cause any trouble. Be it restricting them to group in some public areas or arranging that they aren't allowed to be on the streets from a certain time, I care little for it. The Emperor will expect us to keep the provincial capital under control. I will be placing this on you. Signed, High Lord Girvus Rynir.[/i][/center][/hider] With that, Girvus called for a messenger that would make sure that the letters would be delivered. Sitting in his chair for several moments, Girvus rose up and walked again to the window. This time however, his facial expression was plain. [b]''I wonder..''[/b] He whispered.
