Early in the morning an envelope would arrive, sealed with pink wax, a small wildflower pressed in the middle.

Spoiler: Letter!

Greetings, to a Miss Gertrude,
I have looked at your recent positions for the scholarly academy, and hold great interest. Even though I don't hold every great knowledge of the world, I find your quiet atmosphere you offer in the workplace very appealing. If you'd be so obliged to allow me a meeting, or hire me into your academy, I'd be honored.

From overworked hands,
Sera Lucille de Pierre of the Bloodcast Order.

At some point a letter would find itself pristinely on one of the many desks of the Scholar Academy, folded carefully and written in delicate, magenta ink. A gentle pink shimmer dusts the rose-colored seal, in place of an official stamp.

Spoiler: Addressed to the Scholar Academy

To Miss Getrude J. Hoffman,

I hope this letter finds you in the best of health and in good spirits. I have heard a measure about your acceptance of new scholars, librarians, and aides to the Regalian Scholar Society, and I couldn't help but be interested in the chance to help others find knowledge. I find your philosophies both admirable and noble, and I'd love to lend a hand in whatever way I can.

Whilst my knowledge does not extend deeply into every field of research, I would like to consider myself more than well-versed in the fields of astronomy, philosophy, arcanology, mineralogy, and certain sects of history. I aspire to expand all that I do not know, though, and to help others in learning things that they wish to learn more about. Thank you in advance for your consideration.

Gertrude sipped away at her Schwarztee that was poured into this week's Tuesday's tea cup. In the dim yellow glow of the bell-shaped lantern, she dipped her quill into the ink well, placed a piece of parchment squarely in front, and drafted her next set of letters at the prime time of 8pm. It was one hour past her bedtime, according to the pastor boy that had come to remind her of her evening prayers to the Everwatcher.

[!] Envelopes sealed with the Scholar Academy's wax stamp were sent off the next morning by horsemen before the sun peaked over the pointy Regalian rooftops and white-brick apartment buildings.

To the honorable Sera Lucille de Pierre,

Your interest and history of hard work in the Bloodcast Order does not go unnoticed. The Scholar Academy would be more than happy to employ you. Attached to this letter, you will find a horse carriage ticket to take you to the Scholar Academy this evening. Please arrange your schedule accordingly and bring an umbrella for the spring-time rain.

Most sincere,
Gertrude J. Hoffmann

To Naviri Ag Renai,

Your humility and aptitude for learning is a pleasant surprise. The Scholar Academy welcomes you, and you will find a carriage ticket inside this envelope. Please make arrangements in your schedule accordingly and dressed for the spring-time rain. Be wary of the pot-holes on the cobble streets. It may be a bit of a adventurous ride.

Warm regards,
Gertrude J. Hoffmann

In the afternoon a crinkled envelope was delivered to the desk of Miss Hoffman, closed rather haphazardly and scrawled with loose and quick cursive in black ink.

Spoiler: Letter to the Scholar Academy

Dear Miss Gertrude J. Hoffman,

Though my knowledge is not extensive, I write to you in sought of an assistance position at the Scholar Academy in interest for improvement of the self and helping others do the same. Beneath this atmosphere, I do hope to see others thrive and find themselves in the quiet nature of the academy without interruption from their surroundings in whichever knowledge they pursue. With that said, in current skillset I am well-versed in methods of entertainment and craftsmanship if that would ever be needed to be sought out by another; it is not the most practical in perspective of a scholar, but I do hope that it could be of service.

Dear Miss Gertrude,

I'm a newcomer to the city and a recent graduate from apprenticeships in medicine, curing, exorcism, and several artisan trades. I'm a firm believer in the principles of God Emperor Juvin and, though I've been at sea for much of the last year, desire to extend my carpentry and academic knowledge to your organization. I've little experience with library work but I have good experience repairing book shelves, masonry, and creating things such as curtains and carpets.

I also am fluent in a few languages and am working on learning several more.

An old Wirtem lady, called Miss Gertrude by the children that frequented Ostwin's library, yawned to herself in the golden-orange glow of the melting candles. She looked through the day's envelopes, one that was particularly wrinkly and the other that was supplied from a low-quality paper mill.

[!] Envelopes stamped with a wax seal in the shape of a scholarly owl were sent off before daybreak, delivered by stoic, hard-working horsemen.​

To the honorable Lady Mie Vikstrom,

Any aristocrat from the esteemed House Vikstrom is welcome at our doors. Since our last meeting, I hope to see you again with more horse carriages lined up, awaiting to take you here.

Sincerely,
Miss Gertrude J. Hoffmann

Dear Faithful Traveler Izzdar,

It sounds like you have a large breadth of experiences to draw from. Many Regalians would be eager to hear your tales during out storytelling circles. I am also certain that we will be receiving plenty of books in need of repair these coming months. Please use the horse carriage voucher in this envelope and request for a carriage master to take you to the Scholar Academy. Ostwin Werner's Library operations are there until paperwork is sorted for new building applications.

A colourfully dressed Sihai stops by the Library in the early hours of the morning and leaves a letter at the reception. The letter is written on the backside of a flyer, advertising the latest in hair products, and held together with a red ribbon.

Spoiler: Red Ribbon Letter

Dear Miss Gertrude,
I am new to Regalia and a warrior by trade, but I have spent many years doing several smaller physical crafts, such as pottery and woodwork in the eastern lands. While my own scolarly knowledge is less than extensive I find myself longing for the kind of quiet solitude and reflection that can grand me the opportunity to educate myself in ways I have not yet had the chance to.

I offer my employment, my skills and my protection to your honourable establishment, if you would have me.

P.s. I apologise for my choice of paper, as I cannot yet afford to buy any. However the conditioner advertised is very good and I can wholeheartedly recommend it.

A young Maquixtl heads into the Library one morning, leaving a letter on the reception desk. The letter is written on a weathered paper, with florals painted along the edges.

Spoiler: Floral Letter

Dear Library Staff,
I write this letter in hopes it finds whomever handles the job applications at this wonderful library.
I am new to Regalia, and am very passionate about literature and learning, so I knew this would be the perfect place to look for employment. For skills, I am a painter, and I journal in my free time. This would be my first job aside from farm work at my parents' fields. I hope this letter finds you well, and you would consider my application.

[!] Your letters arrived with a basket of assorted pastries and a one-way carriage ticket to Ostwin Werner's Library. It was early in the morning before most Regalians got up to water their balcony planters in the newly risen apartment buildings and their shiny windows. The courier boy tipped his hat toward you, wished you a warm, Unionist blessing, and carried on with his wagon of parcels and paper mail. ​
