Dearest Zacc,

I see they've promoted you to Earl. How many barrels of whiskey and
Celestian wenches did that take?

I'd like to personally thank you and extend my gratitude to you for
making yourself, and Celest look like utter fools! Congratulations, and
a job well done, again! Mind you, there was never any doubt of this
fact, but it's very reassuring to hear it from the source. Don't forget
to clean your ears and brains of water! I hear it gets in the way of the
famed 'Celestian intellect'!


Kindest Regards,
Severian n'Kylbar
