A letter arrives for Lady Stamford at her manor. It is left with one of her many support staff, with strict instruction to be delivered only to Victoria. No doubt, she will instantly recognize the work of Robert Cross: the double envelopes, each marked with the initials RC over the seal to ensure no one has tampered with the missive, the cheap but clean and neatly folded white paper, the small, precise print in red ink.
Lady Seneschal Stamford,
I hope this letter finds you well. I would like to update you concerning matters of security at your earliest convenience. Please let me know when you are free and I will make myself available to meet with you at a location of your choosing.
Best,
Deputy Robert Cross, Whip of Clan Nosferatu
