Hasty Note

This note is acquired from killing and looting the man that attacks the Haruspex in the fenced in clearing located in the Hindquarters.

These notes are acquired after learning of Lara Ravel's plot to kill Alexander Block on Day 10.

The Crumpled Letter is worth 20 value to the Fellow Traveller.

Crumpled Letter
''The paper is torn. The writing, barely legible.'' "Remember that time at the Scruff? You said fate doesn't choose people, but people choose fate. So I have. I'm glad you're not here. Would have been scarier with you. I-- The rest is unreadable."

Confession Letter
If I didn't know Lara's handwriting so well, I wouldn't have noticed her hand was trembling. "I, Lara Ravel, conceieved the murder of General Block alone. No one knew of my plans. If anyone called Rubin, Burakh, or Filin claims to be my accomplice, disregard them. I've done it myself."

Voronika's Note

''A crumpled piece of paper. Smells like a marsh, for some reason. Touch to read it.''
