Valia,

I hope everything is alright in Lastwall. Here in Westcrown I have been staying out of trouble like you asked. The archmage offered bodyguards to everyone in the convention who asked for one, so I probably won't get randomly murdered (please don't worry about me getting murdered, he also said he would keep bringing people back, but I don't think he'd bring my bodyguard back so I hope I don't get murdered). Alicia is also fine, and so is Lluïsa and her archon, and so is Liushna (she was killed during the riots but she's alive again. Also, she has a toddler now.) I'm not sure if there's anyone else you want me to check on but if there is I can check on them too. As far as I heard when I asked, all the delegates are alive again except the one who got executed for murdering slips and a nobleman who didn't come back even when Archmage Naima tried to bring him back to life. One person also said the metal woman died and didn't come back but she gave a speech today so I think they just hadn't brought her back yet when he heard she was dead.

Today during the convention some of the Evil nobles talked everyone into dissolving the Diabolism Committee and tried to replace the Judiciary Committee with a bunch of nobles. Some of the other nobles convinced people that instead of just replacing the Judiciary Committee with the people they wanted we should vote on whether to have them or Delegate Cansellarion pick who was on the committee, so now it's some nobles and some paladins and Lluïsa, but I'm worried that since the paladins aren't from Cheliax they won't realize all the ways Evil nobles can take advantage of the laws to hurt people. Apart from that we also voted on making new rules about what people can write or say and on getting rid of slavery and on making some new committees. There are a lot of rules about what people can write now, including that it's not allowed to say in public that Evil nobles are Evil nobles (even if it's not in a speech or anything and you aren't getting people to form a mob at all), but at least we don't have slavery anymore. 

During one of the debates I found out that Delegate Artigas used to be a priest of Asmodeus. He said he already told you but I don't know if he was telling the truth. I don't really understand how Iomedae could choose someone who used to be a priest of Asmodeus, Iomedae is supposed to be Good. He told me he tortured four innocent people to death in the name of Asmodeus, which is low for a priest of Asmodeus but four higher than I thought Iomedae would be okay with. I don't really know why I'm putting this in the letter, I assume Iomedae hasn't explained it to you either, I'm just confused. 

I forgot to tell you before you left but you ought to know that it turns out I'm actually Chaotic Neutral, not Chaotic Good like I thought, apparently Good priests can always channel positive even if their god is Neutral. I wasn't trying to lie to you (or the Diabolism Committee) about it, I actually didn't know, I only found out after I got out of prison. 

I'm including a gold coin with the letter so that if you want to dictate a letter back you can pay the teleporter to bring it back to Westcrown. I am staying in the Temple of Shelyn, which is a little bit secret from the Evil nobles but I think if it's just on the envelope it's probably fine. (I talked to Feliu and he says the easiest way to find a teleporter for letters is to pay the Church of Abadar to tell you who to hire. It costs a few silver to send a letter by Teleport so I might not be able to send one every day, but I'll write as often as I can.)

Sincerely,

Victòria

She's not sure when Valia will be able to get someone to read it to her, so she includes a drawing. She's pretty sure it's not a very good drawing, but hopefully it'll be clear enough who everyone in it is supposed to be.
