Yes, %PCName? What do you want with the brilliant Trela Varesi?

Ah... Oh. Ha, well it seems both are too occupied to come and visit me at the present time. Well, that is only to be expected from mer of their caliber! Very well. I shall definitely keep the letters, anyway. What beautiful things they say! Thank you, %PCName! Here, take some drakes for the delivery. I'm sure that should please you!

What's that, %PCName? You have these two letters for me? Oh! Oh, I do wonder what they might possibly be! Haha, of course they can only be from my venerable guests. Please, give those to me.

I cannot wait to receive my replies. How very exciting! I am sure you cannot understand the idea of beholding such glory... except through your experience with me, of course!

Well, I couldn't decline information about my connections to such a persistent fellow as you. I have, in fact, sent correspondence to both Merlador, Llothanis' most famous clothier, and Golyn Sedrethi, guard captain of Tel Mothrivra. And, as soon as I get my reply, I expect them to be visiting my grand abode within the next few months. How exciting!

No, you simply wouldn't understand. Sorry, but I just don't trust you enough. Now get out of here!

Hmph. The likes of you simply wouldn't understand. No, suffice it to say that Llothanis' most famous clothier, and the guard captain of Tel Mothrivra have surely most appreciatively received my correspondence. But no, I wouldn't expect you to understand.

Ha! Outrageous! What could possibly be wrong with me? Hmmph. If you must know, I, infact, have recently sent letters to some very well-to-do people.

What is there to know that you don't already? You might be intrigued to know, if you're into gossip that is, which I most *certainly* am not, [she whispers] to know that I have sent letters to two very important people lately. Hm!

You know my name? Of course you do! Hmph. You could do with showing me more respect than just -- barging in here!

You know my name? Of course you do! Hmph. You could do with showing me more respect than just -- barging in here!

All's well that ends well, that's what I say. Thank you again, %PCName.

Trela accepted the letters? Good. And she seems to have calmed down somewhat? Well, that's even better. Perhaps now we can have some peace for a while. I don't have much to offer you in reward, but perhaps these potions can help you in your travels here. Thank you again, %PCName.

You have the letters? Excellent. You should deliver them to Trela. She's still not speaking to me.

Have you spoken with Hjotir?

To that end, you should go and visit the savant Hjotir, who occasionally visits us here in town. All I know is that he lives out somewhere near the coast, to the east of Hla Bulor, and that when it comes to Hjotir, appearances can be deceiving. Ha. So, don't underestimate his wisdom!

Unfortunately, I don't think there's much I *can* do... What we need, is to keep her happy. So... we'll give her her replies! Ah, yes. %PCName, what we'll do is forge her some replies from her 'guests', politely declining her request. Of course, she'll only accept something suitably prestigious. We'll need some decent forgeries.

She says she's written letters to some famous clothier in Llothanis, and the guard captain in Tel Mothrivra? To invite them here?! Preposterous! But then, that's Trela for you. Oh, dear. Well, I can tell you that she certainly won't be getting any reply. Try telling her that, though... Look, if she doesn't get replies soon, who knows how long it will be before she really loses it.

She says she's written letters to some famous clothier in Llothanis, and the guard captain in Tel Mothrivra? Whatever for? Try to speak to her again, and determine the truth.

You should speak to Trela, get to the bottom of this.

No? Oh. Well, if you change your mind, I'll still be here.

You'll help? Excellent! Look, Trela: she has problems. Ego problems. Somehow, she's got it into her head that she's some famous noblemer or somesuch, and can't wait to rub it in all of our faces. So, normally we play along; humor her. But lately, that's not enough. She just yells her head off. She won't even talk to me or Renedo. So, could you find out what it is that's bothering her?

Back again, eh? Well, are you willing to help us out this time?

She's one of the villagers here. As the local 'hetman', it's my job to look after the folks here. But she has... some problems. Hey, would you care to help me out?

She's been almost sane recently. What a relief!

Dolrem's getting almost worried about her.

Okay, just give me a while... [Hjotir moves over to a desk and works for a while] Perfect. I trust these suit your needs? Very well, glad I could be of service to you.

Well, if you don't *have* the gold, there's not much I can do. These things take time you know, %PCName. And I don't like wasting time if I'm not being paid.

What is it you want, %PCName? Some forged letters. Polite refusals to dinner from Merlador of Llothanis, and Golyn Sedrethi of Tel Mothrivra? Hmm, I can handle that. It will take some gold, though. Fifty pieces, no less.
