Dame Anne de Piedmont, I write to you in hopes I can secure a position in your family court as a socialite and court painter.
I am, in fact, aware that court painter does not currently exist. But I hope you are able to create a new one for someone of my talents.

Enclosed you will find reference pieces of my work (sent via discord), and I hope you'll consider hiring me.
Beyond my art, I believe I have friendly relations with most of your family, and wish to expand them further.

IC letter to Violetta de Piedmont or Anne de Piedmont:

Spirits greetings Dame Anne de Piedmont,

As recently discussed I suggest myself as the Head of your War Council.
For reference, I can only point at my admission to the Marshal Cabinet as a Field General, to my service for his Lordship the Protector of Irole Harald von Drachenburg as a private General, and countless years of service to the Empire as a Field Commander.

During my service, there was a request I have often uttered and I shall utter it again.
I hereby in case of acceptance to your Council require the most hazardous deployment that is available for me personally.


Yours faithfully,

After speaking with you at the Willow, I feel that working with the de Piedmonts will be an excellent opportunity for both mine and my wife's careers.

IC letter to Violetta de Piedmont or Anne de Piedmont:

The letter is sealed with the Synodical Villiers Seal, and tied in a purple and gold ribbon. The text is written in smooth, flowing common.

To whom it may concern,

I was in contact with Lord Emile de Piedmont about serving in your family's war retinue in a frontline position. We met in person, and he said he'd happily have me along. I am simply penning this to finalize the act.

If there's anything else I can do for your house in service of the Spirit, feel free to ask. I offer my skills happily.

Spirit's Blessings,
Ser Aldüir Ashane Stormblade, Third Sergeant of the Villiers-Eclaire Order, Loyal Servant to the Imperial Spirit.

The bottom of the letter would be sealed with a house crest of a sword with a lightning bolt slashed through it.

[~] A fine looking envelope stamped with the black cat of Daenshore arrives in the mail [~]

For the esteemed Duchess de Piedmont;

"Greetings to yourself and the de Piedmont family. My name is Xabi Playero. Although my aspirations are plentiful, I am an author and historian by trade, among other things perhaps not relevant to the criterion of acceptance into the de Piedmont circle. I am writing this letter with the hopes of applying for the open position of scholar in service of your court.

Although brief, I have served as advisor, scholar and legal council for other aristocratic and state groups in the past, and so I would be most honored to be given the opportunity to continue to be of service to the people of Regalia through those same scholarly duties. I am an alumni of the Imperial Academy of History, with notable specializations in Seraphic and Daen history. Most importantly, I am an expert historian on the Allorn Empire, fluent even in the now extinct Allorn tongues, among other languages such as Daen, Modern-Altalar, and Kathar-Altalar, to name a few. With the tensions between Regalia and the resurgent Allorn empire growing ever more troublesome, it is my sincere belief that the members of the peerage which lead this city should endeavor to stay informed on matters of the Allorn, which is something I know I can help greatly with. I am moreover a student of the arcane, as well as a keen observer of global politics and pursuer of enlightenment. My contacts in the more obscure schools of knowledge range far and wide, from alchemists, metallurgists, clockwork engineers, medical and magical practitioners, even draconic savants, all of which I engage with to stay on top of the fascinating and infinite flow of information that criss-crosses Aloria. Please let me know if I can be of service to the court in any way. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for the considerations and for taking the time to read over my letter."

Kind regards,

IC letter to Violetta de Piedmont:

Addressed to Duchess de Piedmont

Greetings. I do not believe we have ever spoken, however, my name is Abad Hussaini, and I wish to offer my services to the de Piedmont family. Sadly, I cannot say that I am experienced when it comes to working for nobility. I suppose I am writing to you because I do not have much use for my skills at the moment. I doubt it would be a good idea for me to try to get a position within the Piedmont court without telling you what I can do beforehand, so I might as well get to that next, starting from what I am most skilled at to what I haven't completely perfected yet. First and foremost, I am quite capable of working with clockwork, it being one of my many hobbies, one that I've had for many years. On top of this, I know how to create weapons, armor, and even jewelry, using metals from the Iron, Bronze, and Rich metal families, and I've been working with metals for longer than I have been working with clockwork. All that really remains for me to write of is my ability to work with wood and design structures, though I guess that really says it all. I suppose a good chunk of those skills may not have anything to do with creating weapons for the house, but I still think they could be useful and are worth mentioning. Hopefully you will consider my offer.

Signed,
Abad Hussaini
