Sapience,

It seems I've heard more and more about this gala that Hashan is
currently hosting. I just wanted to clarify a couple things about it to
everyone prior to it.

Firstly, Hashan did not send out the tickets. They were sent out
independently by, I believe, the man who has been funding this project
out of his own pocket - Tavarius. To everyone who has been invited that
cannot attend due to an enemy-status or personal feelings against Hashan
I would like to apologize.

Secondly, I have heard of a shady individual who is selling tickets to
adventurers of Sapience. Reports have come to me that these are either
scalped or counterfeit. This man apparently asks to see your ticket, and
then takes it from you, before turning around and selling it to another
adventurer. Also, I we have proof that a number of these tickets are
indeed counterfeit. To that end, the City of Hashan is going to be
organizing a screening process. Any ticket bearer with silvered powdered
corners will not be admitted into the gala. We apologize to everyone who
has purchased one of these tickets out of sincere interest to attend.

Any city enemy who attempts to enter the city with intention of going to
the gala will be rebuffed as if they were raiding, regardless of
authenticity of ticket.

Those of you who are actually attending for honest reasons, remember,
formal attire is required, as your invitation states.

Thank you,

Lord Hyru Tiercel
Seneschal of Hashan
