Hello, all. This is Leander, speaking on behalf of Project Jeshavis.

As most of you will remember, back in Bloomingtide there was an incident of abduction and falsely-reported death involving more than a few of our personnel. Well, I've an update for you:

The Baron Deshaies was indeed responsible for the disappearance and delivery of our people to the Venatori. Appropriate measures have been taken. There'll be no further details there, [because no one really needs to know in what condition the baron was left after their group encounter,] but, perhaps those of us who were stricken by the affair will nevertheless find some much-needed consolation in this news.

[Altogether an impressively neutral delivery, considering how he himself reacted after certain persons were named among the dead.]

Also, while our dear project leader is away on business for a number of weeks, any reports or inquiries meant for Jeshavis should be directed to me. As of today, I've moved completely out of the archives and may be found in the project office during hours.

[Which hours? Whichever he wants, he's in charge.]

That's all, thank you.
