Winter, 1219-1220: Setting up lab +2xp Magic Theory, ingratiating with Redcaps, sending letters back and forth with pater and Perditia about Parma Magica +1xp. (Spent)
“Pater Aduro and Soror Perditia. I have settled remarkably well into Conventus Nova Semitae. The Covenant is remarkably well set up in terms of resources, although several of the Covenant’s older members have disappeared. It is quite a mystery. Any suggestions on solving this would be appreciated.
On Parma Magica, I’m still having a few issues in complete body covereage, so… (several paragraphs concerning Parma Magica)… and so I await your answer.
Give Sarah my love and tell her not to neglect her weapon training. Apparently a Knight is doing so outside in the snow. He is one of the worst that I’ve seen…
With Love, Magni
P.S. Pawn E-2 to E-4.”

“Pater Aduro and Soror Perditia. Nothing much to write about beyond the setting up of my lab, which I am sure you could do without. I am most sorry to hear about the recent attacks. I wish I could be with you now, but I am confident in your abilities to see the rabble off.
I have taken your suggestions on my concentration, and have found it to be successful… (several paragraphs on Parma Magica follow).
Also, one of the labs of the previous owner is open to be perused, however the guardian of her sanctuary is still alive and well. It is most intriguing. I must be leaving now, heading for Ireland to investigate a fallen star. I will let you know what happens.
With Love, Magni
P.S. Pawn D-2 to D-4."
