Evening, Mirrorbound. My name's Myr Shivana, for those who don't know my voice.

I've need of someone with experience mediating disputes--a village elder, a judge, even a senior ench--senior academic, if you've had particularly bad students. [There's a note of faint amusement in his voice, there.]

You'd be helping settle a matter that's caused no end of pain and distress to those involved. The reasons behind it are sensitive in nature, so discretion's a must.

I can compensate your time--with cunes or honey or service, whatever's preferred.

[...]

Also--unrelated to the other issue, if there's any Witches or Fae who specialize in illusions invoking taste instead of sight, I'd like to talk to you. Or cooks specializing in food for folk who can't taste much, I s'pose could work too. [He sounds cheerier about this one, at least.]

All sorts of things - angry peasants against brutish landlords, two feuding families, bickering lovers...

[ Not that she's saying how any of them ended up. ]

Well, people tend to want to negotiate when there's an angry mob threatening to burn down their manor...

Well, I think everyone got some of what they wanted and no one got all of what they wanted...

[ Details might be incriminating. ]

Well, the lord had asked me to ensure that his house continued to stand. I said it would.

His peasants, on the other hand, asked me to lower their taxes.

And in my defense, his manor was fine at the end of it.
