the mansion in the city centre. He picked up a blank sheet of paper and glanced at the envelope lying next to it, which was already addressed. She really knows more about me than I do myself. He shook his head and began to write. He summarised the whole message in a few sentences and sealed it in the envelope.
He dressed back up and set off in the direction of the couriers' office. It was not far away, thanks to which he was already knocking on the door after a while.
-Please.- He heard a muffled voice. He stepped inside.-Good evening, Colonel.-The sergeant sitting behind the desk stood upright as a string. Bleist recognised the man who had been in Othis's office earlier.-What can I help you with, sir?
-I would like to send a letter by express.- Darius placed the parcel in front of the non-commissioned officer.
-I don't want to be rude, but the express mode only applies to military messages, sir.-The mage stated, glancing at the address. He glanced at Darius and tilted his head slightly.-But I have some messages to deliver from Ambassador Othis and I will have to take orders... so I can deliver this for you in passing, sir.-A smile strayed on his face for a moment, but it was quite quickly extinguished masked by a servile seriousness.
-Thank you.- Bleist nodded slightly. The lad knows what he's doing. He thought as he watched the soldier begin to collect the documents with the URGENT stamps on top and put the envelope from Darius between them. He nodded once more and headed for the exit. He stopped with his hand on the doorknob and turned once more.-What is your name sergeant?
-August Vah'rei, colonel.
-Thank you Augustus.- Darius nodded his head once more in farewell and left already thinking only of his bed and a peaceful sleep.
