Bonjour, monsieur.

Before anything, I am now curious as to how you'd like me to refer to you. I can stick to formal extensions, or choose one of your names (but which one would you prefer)? You're right in your summary of the times, things are changing and Gallia is about to enter another era of change I suspect. With the Brigands organising, the Royals pushing, and the Corse moving, Gallia is bound to change like never before.

As mentioned before, I rarely leave my compound, but exceptions can be made. Whenever you're ready, you may summon me and I will be there. My escorts will wait outside, and we can speak like proper men.

Signed,

Mathieu Rousseau
