[ Enough willpower is exerted to not send the letter back with spelling and grammar corrected. Instead, a letter is delivered to him later in the day. ]
Thank you for delivering this report, doubtlessly collected at no small risk. I will ensure that the information does not go unused.
The Carta and the Coterie's positions are indeed in their expected locations, and you need not pry further into those for the time being. They are institutions that have been here for far longer than we have, and I have little doubt they will still be here after we are gone from this city. Best not to stir up a wasps' nest without a remarkably good reason, else you will just get stung. Keep an ear out for more information regarding these shifty activities of the Coterie, but don't go out of your way to pursue it for now.
I find myself in agreement with your assessment of favorable beginning targets. From both their positions and their malicious activity among the residents of the Undercity, the Lowtown Demons seem as good of a start at weeding out the criminal element as any. If we're careful about taking them out, we can avoid creating more chaos, and perhaps take steps in assuring the residents that we are here to aid them. I have little doubt in my mind that their goodwill would be a great benefit.
Thus, I would like you, if you see fit, to focus your investigation on gathering more information about this gang. I would like particular attention paid to the top members of the group, along with their standing among other gangs. Do they have any allies, any particular sworn enemies, etc.
Please respond with an estimation of the resources (both monetary and manpower) that you will need to begin gathering more information. Once that has been settled, you may begin at your earliest convenience.
