The boy known as Nedas, once as Nedas Nightshade, has betrayed his
family. He has betrayed his oath to his guild, and has sought to weaken
his family. There can be no Nightshade without Glomdoring, not now, and
if it is to be so, if the family is to spread, it will be on my whim,
not the whim of an adolescent fool. Trust was extended to Nedas, and it
was returned with spite and disregard. Therefore, I will be paying five
thousand gold every time I receive the head of Nedas.

This bounty will be open until such a time as Nedas lays aside the
Nightshade name, and confronts the truth of his actions: In leaving
Glomdoring, he laid aside his status as one of the Nightshade.

The Nightshade do not brook traitors. I offer you one last chance to
turn back on your ill-thought decision. Rejoin the Glomdoring, and there
will be no malice between us. Should you keep on your path, I can
promise only that I will do my utmost to keep it as painful as possible.

You have been warned.

Astraea
Matriarch of the Nightshades of Glomdoring
