The invitation sent by the lawyers of Fredrick & Sons to the potential heirs.

2-10-XX
To ___________________

I regret to inform you of the passing of Gregory Witherborn, Marquis of Briar Island. As he did not specify a proper heir in his will, you, as a fellow descendent of Marquis Roland Witherborn, have been determined an eligible candidate to be his successor. Enclosed is a four-thousand euro travel fund and a pendant bearing the family crest; should you decide to vie for your inheritance, make sure you carry that pendant with you at all times.

Briar Island is located fifty miles off the coast of Southern France. At the port city of Saint Correns, you may charter a vessel to ferry you to the island. While guests are allowed, they are not encouraged due to the nature of the island traditions.

We hope you make the right decision and accept your responsibilities. The inheritance process will start on the 22nd, so it is strongly advised that you arrive before that date.

Signed,
Frederick & Sons
