[the number here may or may not be familiar to some, but its pen taps the paper for some time, as if trying to decide how to start. finally;]

How best do you convince the taximan (and whatever police he threatens to summon) that you did not, in fact, pack a greatsword with your luggage and the fact that there is one in there now is completely out of your hands?

And for that matter, am I allowed to keep said greatsword if I insist it was some sort of prank? It was my luggage, and if something saw fit to give it back to me I believe I should very well keep the damn thing. (Especially after it ruined my best shirts.)

Lyall, I hope you'll read this before you reach our meeting place. I believe I may be delayed for some time.

To the rest of you- if we've already met, I do apologize for these months of forgetfulness but I consider this headache my due punishment. If we haven't - my name is Elian, and I will be pleased to meet you once I am done convincing this poor man I'm as much a victim in this little debacle as he.

I don't believe we have any, at least not in the time I've been here. It's a shame--that would be very helpful for us, if the lawyer in question were up for it.

I imagine it would be interesting if nothing else. They'd be, in many cases, charting new territory. And even with all that seems to have happened...I cannot say I dislike the concept of exploring what legal options we have available to us.

I wonder if we could attract a good lawyer with the promise of new and interesting things like this. It might be difficult to weed out the glory-seekers from the ones with good intentions, though.
