In the hopes of thwarting the intentions of those who laid this burden upon us, we have envision a grand setting for the Normandy Tribunal of 1227. To that end, we seek books on Roman architecture, particularly Bibricate itself. Does your esteemed library hold anything that might serve our needs?

Viscaria Lynchis, in service to Mons Electi, and its founders

(Attached is another note, dictated by Theraphosa to ur scribe. It appears to be a discussion of her observations on the game of chess, and the value of bein able to percieve the board from all sides. Thera is using Intrigue to couch her offer subtly, but the gist of her offer should be clear to Andru -- "Can I help you watch the board?"

Viscaria,
We have several books on architecture available. If constructing a bath you should consult with Marcus of Tytalus, I believe he and Apollodorus were amicus before his sudden passing. He designed the frigidarium, caldarium and tepidarium in such a way that heat and coolness can be imparted magically without the need for penetrating magic resistance. It is a bit over my head, as I don't understand the art of Ignem very well, but Carmine was absolutely enthralled with his process.

With this letter two tomes on architecture are sent, atop the volumes are a note which reads, "For the library of Mons Electi from Valnastium." These are two tractatus on Architecture of quality 10, written by Tektonius of Bonisagus.
