[edit] M9B01
Description: A love letter
Location: on a table, in the nearest house to the front gates
- Truart's Estate, surrounding areas
Dearest Stephanie, I just thought I would take a break from all of my distractions to write you a little letter letting you know how much I love you. I know I have been very busy lately and haven't had as much time for you as I would like. The 18 hour days I'm putting in at the warehouse are killing me, but I am learning so much from the Mechanists. They are a little arrogant, but they have a vision I want to be a part of. They are beginning to accept me, which means a lot to me. I've had to work very hard to prove myself to them, but I know that in the end, all of my hard work will pay off and we will both benefit from it. Thank you for being my inspiration, and thank you for being so understanding. Our love is the most important thing in my life, and when the Mechanists' project is done you will once again be the center of my universe. I love you, Ekim

MECHANIST INSTRUCTIONS If thou wouldst unlock this kind of door, thou wilt needst use the appropriate gear. Insert thou the correct gear unto the locking mechanism. When the mechanism be complete with the correct gear, then marvel thou as the gears turn to unlock the door. For those with no eye to tell one gear from its cousin, know thou also that if thou use the incorrect gear, the mechanism shall fail thee and nothing shall happen. If thou hast concerns, please bring them unto me. -Friend Capezza.

Description: a note from Sheriff Truart to all personnel
Location: in the corridor south of the Chapel
- Truart's Estate, floor one
We all know that many criminals harbor a vendetta against me, so I have decided to have a Mechanist install several security devices throughout the estate. A new mechanism has been installed to lock all doors leading up to higher floors in the mansion. These doors cannot be forced open or unlocked using conventional means. All doorways that lead to upper levels will be locked every night and will unlock again in the morning. -Sheriff Truart

Description: A note from Officer Benny
Location: in the south-west corridor
- Truart's Estate, floor two
I went and lost my silver gear and now I can't get up to the third floor. I tried knocking on that blasted door for an hour, but no one would open it for me. Last time I saw it was before I took a swim. Please return it to me if you find it, I will be in the game room. - Officer Benny
[edit] M9B05
Description: a note from Brother Tickspring to Sheriff Truart regarding the chapel
Location: in a north-west room
- Truart's Estate, floor two
I know well that thy father was a loyal supporter in time gone by. Most greatly did we appreciate his generosity in building the chapel upon Truart Estate, where mine brethren and myself did give praise to the Builder. However, the worship of the Builder has come forward while thy chapel dost remain in the past, for its walls and panels art still decked in the symbols of our old ways. For one who hast renounced these antique trappings, such things are deeply offensive. Thou must think strongly upon replacing them with the more modern and appropriate symbols of the present age. -Brother Tickspring

Dear Volari, Prostitution in this city is a huge problem, and I plan on cleaning it up, so you should keep a low profile. I've taken the measures to protect you that we discussed. I live a demanding life now that I'm the most important person in town, and meeting with you is my only means of relaxation. I do not consider you equal to the rest of the scum that lurk the streets, so I am going to give you special treatment as long as you take care of me when I need you. -Norman Druart

I hear the foundation under the porch of Truart Estate has a large crack which you should be able to crawl under. Check behind the bushes for it. There must be an easy way into the mansion under there. -Tundis

Location: on a table, in the guard quarters

Watch Officer Morgan - Have I got a deal for you! I know Truart's been looking for the pagan outlaws for months - I should be able to provide one, ripe for the plucking, when he leaves the city. I hear he's smuggling in some banned herbals - if I can learn any more I will of course let you know, but I do know he'll be leaving around midnight at the Carter's Gate. -Jabril

Location: on a table, in a sleeping room

Officer Morgan - Cease these bribes immediately! There is more than enough street garbage we can simply scrape off the pavement that we do not need to *pay* for more! If your snitches could ever turn up the serious ones, I might consider it, but look at your recent list. Festil, Blackrat, Hops - these are the worst you can find, and none of them other than poor street filth. -Watch Sergeant Harwin
