Greetings,

I write you all today to inform you that my debt of 600,00 gold has been
paid off, and I shall no longer kidnap in order for me to reobtain this
lost gold.

Aspin, a former Sentaari monk, paid his own ransom because no one else
would. He realized something. He realized how uncaring the Shallamese
and Sentaari really are, and has come to acknowledge the Truths of this
world - Sartan's Truths. Today Aspin has turned over a new leaf and
shall begin a new life.

Good luck to you on your journies, Aspin, and I hope that people learn
from your example.
