Over the course of the next two weeks, the Scouting division will be offering classes on basic lock-picking skills. This training is mandatory for all Riftwatch agents. I should hope the reasons are obvious.

[ Not that she's asked the other Division Heads about it, but who would be opposed to this anyway? ]

There will be a number of sessions to suit all schedules, and will have locks suitable for teaching beginners and testing those who are already skilled, so there are no excuses or exceptions for not attending.

Anyone in the Scouting division who doesn't feel they are qualified to assist, or anyone outside of the Scouting division who believes they are competent to help teach, should contact me. If anyone has a set of cuffs or any kind of unusual lock they would be willing to loan us for this exercise, please contact me about that as well.

I do not need to know their provenance.
