And why? What does the family gain other than power and control over you? What does the family have to fear from this wanderer? Retribution? Perhaps? It was the family that cast the giant into our streets.

You have heard of the fear he incites, the violence with which he attacks his targets, the tick, tick, ticking of his arrival under the cover of darkness.
The scratching sound of quill on paper finally stops.
As you look back at your words, Alcide, they seem to vibrate with power, and you feel that feeling again in your chest, this rising of power, this voice you've been accused of.
As you seal this letter, roll me either persuasion, deception, or intimidation.

The vibration stops, the paper stills, and that pounding in your chest calms.

Where are you as you finish this business?
You hear the soft snores of Jolie coming from the front office as you set down your quill.

As you pick up the paper and you still feel that energy radiating off of it.
What do you do with it?
