I got stuck on the fic that I started writing to get unstuck from a different fic so anyway I wrote this.

Dear Yussa,

I’m sorry to have missed you upon your visit to my study! I had hoped you would message me, although I have found that messages do not always reach me on my journeys. With that said I am hoping you’re well, as I found the books had been moved about and more concerningly, the security I had put in place had been dispatched. I hope you’re well - it seems like this might have been an emergency, although that could have just been the guardian. I’ve found new security options, so if you choose to visit again please let me know - message me a second time if necessary, or plan in advance.

I do have some topics pertaining to the planar drifts I’ve been studying that I’d been hoping to discuss with you, to get a new perspective. When you receive this could you please contact me? I’d be happy to visit you in Nicodranas again - it’s been some time since I’ve been there, though I suppose I’m not in Exandria at all much these days!

Yours,

Planerider Ryn

Planerider -

I am extremely sorry about whatever may have happened to your study. I was not actually present, but I can reliably inform you about those who were if you need any recompense.

Do you recall that meeting I gave a presentation to the Arcana Pansophical, perhaps five or six years ago, after which you and Arcanist Vyesoren and the Lady of Vord and I had some drinks? They both waxed poetic about the fulfilling nature of mentoring young adventurers; a task neither you nor I seemed to find quite as appealing.

I have been doing so, primarily against my better judgement. True, they have provided me with some fascinating objects, one of which they seem to have taken back, and they did rescue me from a demiplanar prison - but I digress.

From what I can gather from my butler, to whom I have granted a few week’s leave after the ordeal I am about to describe (so my apologies if this letter is delayed or my information is spotty), while I was doing a small amount of planar travel of my own in research pertaining to a mission the young adventurers were ostensibly on they arrived in my tower in desperate need of aid in transport, along with two halflings and, for inexplicable reasons, The Ruby of the Sea. In doing so they found your scroll, and well, I have heard little since. I will say their need seemed genuine as several of the more unpleasant sorts of Dwendalian wizards invaded my home in pursuit. I have been somewhat busy in my own pursuit of legal challenges to these actions, although I would be very interested in discussing planar discoveries. Perhaps in a few weeks? I hope to have resolved these political difficulties by then.

With all of that said Arcanist Vyesoren has seen them quite recently and may have further insight, or should at least be able to contact them if you need aid in Emon, as I did send them her way.

Should you find them, they have an item of mine on loan as well as the object I had hoped they would permit me to continue to research. If I see them, I will ask them about their time on the plane of fire and ensure any apologies and compensation is conveyed. I do still hope to visit your study myself, under better circumstances, and await your correspondence.

Dear Yussa,

That explains quite a number of things! The damage to the study is minimal though to be honest I wouldn’t turn down a favor from some adventurers. I was very confused as there were one or two comments in my research book that I know I didn’t write and really did not seem like the sort of thing you’d add. I also didn’t realize you knew Infernal! When you next hear from this party please let me know, and yes, I’d love to meet in a few weeks.

Yours,

Ryn

"[heavy sigh] What, in the name of the gods, did you write in the books on the plane of fire?”

Response, from Jester Lavorre to Yussa Errenis

“Hiiiiiii! I just, you know, wrote some thoughts about the planes. It was really bad there, a fire monster killed Veth’s son, um, sorry about-”
