Public call for help!

I am humbly sending out this request to any and all able bodied individuals. Hellock Keep has been thrown into utter anarchy. The prisoners are in control and the streets run red with the blood of the innocent.

I have spent to the very last, every coin from my coffers to try and hire individuals to help bring Hellock Keep back into order. But I fear this may not be enough. I am asking any who would do Ostcliff a great service to aid me in this endeavor. While I cannot pay you in gold I am happy to scribe scrolls and engineer some baubles for any who can lend aid.

Thank you for your consideration. And may Valos guide our path.

*Not Seámus*

Sir Cypher,

Truly, you know the way to my heart. Not to sound as a walking stereotype of my people, but the open ended offer of baubles has at the very least piqued my curiosity... Mostly in that I am curious as to what manner of baubles to plan to fashion.

I will step away from my plans of expanding my mead making business for the time being and help you in Hellock Keep.

Fie ca drumul călătoriți fi plăcut, și răzbunare ta plătit în întregime.

Latsho drom,
- Boryev Solvei, Baro of the Solvei Kumpania

For those who are not motivated to help by scrolls, baubles, or generosity, I am offering gold, silver, or alchemicals for such actions.

Serah,

I have no use for scrolls, but whatever a 'bauble' is, I would be more than happy to help out for a few.
I have work in Ostcliff as it is, so I may as well help out.

-Justé (Sébastien) O.T. Noire

You have my help. Call upon me any time you wish this coming feast and after and I shall do the best I can to help.

You have my help as needed. Let me know what assistance is needed and I will see it done.

whilst I may be rather new to trevance, I would certainly not mind assisting with negotiations as you are incapable of payment currently I can write up a suitable contract with a reasonable date for payment or perhaps discuss this other manner of payment you offer

Sir Jack

There is no reason to begger yourself, and frankly, subjects of Travance who are not committed to assisting other lands should do so for the goodwill it will engender from you. I will see about detailing a few from Pendarvin to help restore civli order in Hellock's Keep.

For the Land, I am

Wotcher Professor,

It's a sad day indeed when the heroes whose adventures we grow up reading about are themselves in need of saving.

If there's anything I can do to assist you, please let me know - I can leave the workshop at a moment's notice if needs be. Should you find yourself wanting for novelties with which to pay your conscripts, I'm certain that we've a few amusing whizzbangs lying about the place; I'll have Sally package them up for travel immediately.

Take care, Professor - I know you'll find a way to fix this. Opus Venare.

Sir Cypher,
I'm not sure how I could be of use, but I do offer aid in any way I can. Please do let me know if you need anything regarding this.
I would ask for no type of payment in return.

-Akira Saralonde

Let me start by saying thank you to all who stated that they will help, I too would consider a personal favor to me for any who would call me friend or brother to help in this matter.
Father Haroldson thank you for your help you are truly great man, and I am humbled by you actions

The rally of assistance that has come forth is a testament to our strength and unity. From the bottom of my heart I thank all of you who have decided to take upon this mantle.

To all who have offered help -

What we will be doing is marching in and bringing the streets back to order. Be it through fist or sword or axe. There are times for diplomacy and negotiations, this however, is not one of them.

If you are not martially capable, there will be a second group going in working on providing triage, and medical assistance, and regrettably burial rites, to our subjects that have been injured or killed.

Master Haroldson -

I can only echo the words of Sir Pluvious. But I will add that it is not begging, I am a strong believer in rewards for service, even for the smallest tasks. No word or deed should ever pass by unremarked as time is the greatest thing you can give someone.

And to those who THINK they control Hellock Keep -

You came into our home before and thought you'd take over in small ways. Through murders, robberies, and what have you. You were found guilty of your crimes. We gave you a place to stay, food to eat, and a chance at penance.

This is your warning. Run. And don't ever stop running. I am coming for each and every one of you and I WILL bring you to justice. I promise you, there is no dark corner of this world that you can hide in that I cannot get to. Submit and face punishment or live the rest of your days in fear until I find you and bring the weight of the law down upon you.

The choice is yours.

Dear Sir Jack

I will be there to offer my aid to heal to fix and help those souls that need to pass on to do so!

In the Light

The Templars and Clerics will be dispatched to assist you. We will be in touch very soon or reach out to Bishop Chance.

Sir Cypher,

I will help in any way that I can. You have my word.

-Thalia

My blade and voice is at your command.

Sir Cypher,
I don't know how much help I would be because I am not very good with a sword, but I know I am good enough at magic. I do enjoy stopping bad guys. I can also put some money towards helping you too. Let me know if you want my help!

My friend Sir Jack,

I have sent you a missive about this opportunity.

I will be taking three volunteers from the guard to come, and assist in this matter. I would suggest giving the prisoners a chance to give themselves up before running them down. If they do not reply with surrender, it will be treated as a prison break, and they will be brought back by the means needed to do so.

V.C. S. Oren Tenderson

Sir Cypher,
I have been given leave of Kaledonia to come and assist. Please let me help another way. There is a way to stop this without causing more blood to run in the streets. I will get there and tell you my plan as soon as I am able. No one else need die.

The criminals who were confined within the dungeons of Hellock Keep have broken these laws by their very action of rioting, escaping confinement, & taking over of Hellock Keep. These crimes are in addition to whatever crime (or crimes) thy were found guilty of that caused their initial imprisonment. These criminals are already in the midst of their 2nd offense.

I ask Sir Cypher and VCS Tenderson to review carefully if an opportunity for surrender for these criminals is really feasible and the punishment that they must enact for these most heinous of crimes.

It is not my place to say what should or shouldn't be done with these criminals but if your neighborhood is plagued by a mob of curs there are two things you can do:

You can kill them or you can discipline them.

One removes a problem and the other gives you a pack of trained and well behaved dogs to be used for any number of tasks.

I promise you, even old dogs set in their wicked ways can learn new tricks given the right discipline and conditioning.

[strike]Sir Cypher. It would be with much pleasure that I have been released by Master Edwin from duties in Pendarvin to perform civil service in Hellock Keep for a moon. I await your instruction. I ask no physical payment, only the token of a favor to grant later.[/strike]

*written in a hasty scrawl underneath the struck-off text*
I have been ask to perform duties within Pendarvin. If ye have any enquiry, ask Master Haroldson.
