A note attached to a notice board inside the Crown Guard building
-
The two were-rat monsters keep making sendings about me. First, offering 50000 gold to our Captain Farmerson to allow them to eat me (my ever-lasting thanks to our captain for promptly refusing such an offer!); then giving me three days to feed them lavishly ",or else!", and now making false claims trying to frame me for supposedly having "told them to eat" my best friend, Imyra. Let it be clear that I did nothing of the sort. They just want to eat me and / or my pies. And they want to sow dissension.
What I did do, well before joining as a secretary to this guard, was that I left a certain number of pies, some bread, and some grain in the sewers as an offering to our Lady Talona. I did so because she spared me when those rat monstrosities first attacked me outside of Bospir. And yes, those rats managed to instil a greater fear in me of our Lady of Disease than I have ever felt in my life - with them threatening to eat me, or disease me, if I failed to make such offerings. This was all before I joined the guard, and I sincerely doubt I am alone in trying to appease the goddess like this. It is what any sane and lowly commoner would do. The problem is.. that I am indeed and admittedly a rather skilled cook. People just like my pies, and these rats are being frantic for good food.
So, if any of you wish to address this issue, please feel free to lock me into a cell, lecturing me endlessly about paragraphs of the lawbook. Or just fine me, and throw me out. I really do not care much. But if you actually want to do something useful, then help me find some silver, and belladonna, and adventurers willing to risk their very life fighting these horrible beasts together with me, for Crown and Kingdom.

Hm.
I suppose it is time for drastic measures.
I will write a letter soon, summoning a rather famous lycanthrope hunter…
