Huntress: The Letter

Xori • Tielfing • Blood Hunter • Huntress, Part 1

“This is for you, Huntress.” A young halfling boy stopped her in the street, hand reaching out towards her, parchment clenched in his fist. Xori took the crinkled envelope from the boy, replaced it with a copper. The envelope had been addressed to her—her name scrawled slanted and skewed, but still identifiably hers all the same.

Renowned huntress, Xori,

Tales of your exploits and current residence in my village have reached my ears. I have great need for your services as a hunter and request an audience with you this evening. Please visit my manor on the hill at sunset.
