[There are two sets of handwriting here–one careful, deliberate, the other slightly hastier. Still the message is fairly coordinated, and it’s not hard to imagine that the two people willing these words into existence are probably doing so from the same place (because they are).]

Hello everyone, I hope you're all having a good day. My name is Jayce Talis and I have a business in Cadens with my partner Viktor. We're inventors and scientists back home, and we've adjusted to life here creating a variety of objects that might be of interest to people. I'm a blacksmith so primarily my work involves blades, tools, both regular ones and multi-tools, shields, canes, and collapsible versions of everything I make as a family expertise.

[Viktor, for his part, is a bit more to-the-point.]

We’re also in the business of custom projects. Given an idea, I’m reasonably certain we would be able to bring almost anything from concept to completion. Within reason, of course–we’re still working under certain technological limitations, but if a particular tool or device is of interest to you, it’s worth describing to us. We’ll see what we can do.

We wanted to let people in Cadens know that you can come to us and request what you're looking for. We give 15% off everything for the Summoned, but if you're new to the area and can't pay, you can consider anything on loan until you can save up. No hurry, we know it's hard to get started. Unfortunately we're not 100% sure if they'll let us ship these things to the other locations right now, but if that changes we'll let you know. Sorry.

Something that’s also of interest to us is the general working conditions of the mines in Cadens. We have a few ideas for basic improvements and increased safety, but any work we do will require the removal of outdated equipment. Unsurprisingly, the government is not necessarily keen on funding such an endeavor.

So what we're hoping for are volunteers in Cadens who are willing to do some heavy lifting with us to get the dangerous old machinery out of there. It is a volunteer situation although we'd be happy to make you something in thanks.

If there is interest, Jayce and I plan to extend an invitation to our domain, to exchange notes. A meeting of the minds, of sorts, for those of us who are more scientifically-inclined.

We'd really love to pick the minds of fellow scientists, inventors, or tech experts from all locations.

Thank you for your time!

You bet. And I can't complain too much now that I've found some ways to stay busy. Certainly helps with being productive on those late nights.

[ Which is to say his lack of sleep is entirely his own doing now, so improvement! Kinda. ]

I was about to ask how your projects have been going lately, but something tells me the answer is well if you've been able to organize this. I'd still like to hear about them sometime whenever you're free. If you happen to like tea that's mainly what I have to offer in return at this point, if it helps make that request any more compelling.

Helping merchants out here and there as I can, mostly. It's been useful for learning different ways around Cadens, among other things.

And tea it is, then. You just let me know when on that as well.
