Gosleigh's Letter - 20th Rain's Hand

by Gosleigh

A part of a series of letters between Gosleigh and Xal

This was originally created by Michael Kirkbride and Ted Peterson and posted to the official Bethesda forums on 2002-04-20. Michael Kirkbride took the role of Xal, and Ted Peterson was Gosleigh. Ted Peterson would provide additional commentary about these letters, "Actually, the original plan was for us to do a short story series together as people writing letters back and forth -- that was the concept behind the in-game book The Charwich-Koniinge Letters, but we never got organized enough to pull it off." The post was archived by The Imperial Library.

20 Rain's Hand
Nicrythe Tower,
Artaeum,
Sumurset.

My Dear Xal,

It's been ten days and I've yet to receive any word from you. I'm hoping that you're not dead. I'm hoping further that the seeds and saplings I asked you to send are en route with a letter. Springtide is turning to Summertide and if I don't have the plants soon, it will be too late to set them properly.

I've instructed my assistant Jolfer to take care of anything I receive over the next couple of days or weeks. I can't go into the details, but suffice it to say, I will be in the Dreaming Cave. Yes. And to your next question, no, there is no one but me who can go on this. Believe me, Direnni, who is a fool (which is made plainer every day) would take my place if he could.

So you see there is no telling how long I will be gone. I've specifically told Jolfer not to open any letters addressed to me (fearing that you might make reference to my recent shipment, which the Council of Artaeum might frown upon), but don't let that hold you back. I demand as my right as your friend to hear everything about your trip.

Now I must go. They must tattoo me for my trip. I'm sure I'll look like a perfect ass. The daedra should be very amused.

Yours,
Gosleigh
