— Master Sebastian Michaelis, a man of such diligence I shall never know better.
A gift, to keep you warm through the winter.
In my home, we give gifts at the end of harvest - to keep us in good cheer all through the long dark to come. One to keep you warm on the nights which you are always so busy in your tasks, I worry so oft' that you shall not be in care of yourself with all the care you take in your work. The wreath is usually given at midsummer and kept until mid-winter when we burn them on the longest night to ward off bad omens for the new year.
In all regard, yours, Gilia St. Loe, Daughter-Sea, She Who Sings the Ocean to Prosperity
[ With the note comes a box that has been carefully packaged, scented faintly with lavender and rosemary. On the top is a simple wreath of leaves, bound together with twists of herbs and flowers that make it faintly sweet, with how it has all been carefully dried. Below it is the main gift itself. A jacket, made of thick wool and silk blended together and picked out in carefully hand-stitched embroidery and sewn in lace, golden patterns. ]
[It won't be long at all before there will be a response from Sebastian with his typically (inhumanly) perfect cursive, not even a centimeter of ink smeared from a hasty knuckle or sloppy wrist]
To the most esteemed and ever prosperous Lady Gilia,
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the beautiful gifts you have bestowed upon me. Of course I will put both to good news and on prominent display when appropriate. You are a most generous of employers to concern yourself with your staff in such a fashion.
It has been a pleasure to work under your employ.
My sincerest regards and gratitude, Sebastian Michaelis
