Letter of Introduction from Burgomaster

To whom it may concern,

I humbly ask that you provide the bearer of this letter with what aid you can. Trust in their purpose, assist in their endeavors, and offer shelter and counsel if you are able. Please extend to them every courtesy you would afford a friend of mine.

With utmost respect,

Kolyan Indirovich  
Burgomaster of Barovia

The letter is sealed with the wax sigil of the burgomaster of Barovia: a longsword before a rising sun. Kolyan concedes that he cannot promise the letter will be obeyed, noting it has been “years" since he traveled to any of the other settlements in the valley. He vows, however, that it should at least “open the ears" of those they may wish to approach, such as Baron Vargas Vallakovich and Lady Fiona Wachter of Vallaki, or Burgomaster Dmitri Krezkov of Krezk.
