Sorting through his small stash of packages to be delivered he dropped the small box on his desk.
      "Remus?" another mailman peeked in. Glancing back Remus waved him in.
      "What's up?" Remus sneaked a candybar from the drawer.
      "You got a letter." He tossed the light envelope in front of Remus on the desk.
      "Hm? Oh, it's Jack." Remus ripped it open and scanned through it.
      "So, what's he doing?" the other asked as he leaned on the file cabinet.
      "He says he's gotten over his homesickness, wow, he got promoted to Captain." Remus checked the back for anything. Finding it blank he shoved the letter sloppily back into the envelope.
      "You'd think after boot camp it would all be easy." He sniggered.
      "My brother can be a real sap sometimes. Here, send this to my family, I have to deliver this other package. Old man Prism finally died and I guess this was his death wish." Remus showed him the label on the box.
      "Wow. He died? He's been there forever. Hmm, a bard? You should head over to Doko, I hear the bards tend to hang out there." He scanned the label.
      "Really? Thanks, that should help out a lot. I wish I knew what it was though." Remus pushed out of his chair, tossing the box under his arm, "Then I better head off."
      "Hey, good luck there. Bards can be slippery ones." He crinkled the envelope as he left Remus' room.
