To Darius Quarterling,

You’ve been keeping busy, haven’t you? Building houses instead of burning them down. That’s good. You always did have ambition. But ambition doesn’t erase old debts. Some things don’t go away just because you look the other way. You and I both know that.

There’s an opportunity coming—one that needs hands as quick as yours, a mind as sharp. A job. The kind that people will speak about in hushed tones for years to come. The kind that rewrites fortunes.

I don’t make a habit of offering twice. If you’re interested, you know where to find Orwin. He knows where to send you. If you’re not, well… let’s not pretend that you won’t be curious.

Fortunes favor the bold.
— The Hollow Hand
