I write this letter as a call for help. A call to the ancients, to ask my ancestors to help me on my search for the Baurai, our eternal enemy, they have hidden themselves away from our eyes. I fear they may be preparing to kill us, conjuring up an end battle, after centuries of secret battles and an eternal war, they may be close to finishing their goal. I call on the Aurelle ancestors to descend from their home in the stars and help us lay vengeance on our enemies when the day comes. May our magic wipe their bodies from existence, may this war end and may our families finally dissolve and live on in a normal existence. Not one constantly caught up in an ancient turmoil. I wish for a new sunrise, one different from yesterday, it has felt like 1,000 years since the sun set. I wish to see the sun again.
Sincerely,
Pyre.
Pyre picked the note up and lit it with a match and held it out the window. Holding it till the last second when he released and the hot air pulled it into the sky as the fire tore the paper to ash. Pyre then turned back to his desk where a request sat. He read it over, it was from Bella Missandra, the lady who ran the bath house. He smiled, she was a nice lady. He had met her once or twice when he had actually gone to the bath house to take a bath and not to beat up street thugs. He grabbed the request and walked out the door and down the stairs. The lady who was at the desk this morning smiled, her face was pale and she had brown hair, she looked like she may have been 40, likely with children. She smiled goodbye and pyre waved to her as he walked out the door.
The walk to the bath house was short and it didn't take him long to get up there. Once inside he conversed with the secretary for a moment, she fiddled with her hair before Bella came out and gave a stifled laugh. "Janice, if you're going to flirt with every wizard you see you're going to end up pregnant." Bella said. Janice blushed and turned back down to her journal. Bella turned her attention to Pyre, " You must be one of the kind wizards here to set up an ambush to get that peeping tom. He's been terrorizing my customers recently and I'm here to make everyone feel comfortable, but he is ruining the safest place ever created. And so, he needs to be punished." She said fiercely. Pyre nodded, "I think I can help, Someone like him deserves a bit of a roughing up." Pyre said. Bella nodded. "Good, he is known to be found in the bath at the end of the hall, I wish you well." She said sweetly.
