"I'll talk to me Colonel and see what we can put together for yas. Now, since you's in a recommendin' mood an' evathin', what would you suggest that thish-hyear consooltayshun requery contains?" The captain pauses to jot some notes, "...Butter up Magistrate....Say, that wouldn't happen to be that sawed-off Dwarf feller Old Rustybritches, would it?"

"Yes, that would be him. Magistrate Ironshirt. We don't usually refer to him as Old Rustybritches." Brae chuckles. "I would suggest that in your request, you ask that the 14th Ward assist the garrison in providing personnel capable of scouting out the nature of the threat against the city. Since Special Squad Alpha of the 14th Ward is already familiar with the basics of the threat, it makes sense that they should be the ones to aid with the investigation, since they won't need to be brought up to speed, and to prevent word from getting out to the city and causing any sort of panic." Brae scratches at his beard. "You might also indicate that any favorable praise that comes from investigating this threat and helping to deal with it might be showered upon the 14th Ward and its magistrate for his ability to see the big picture and help the city as a whole."

Brae pulls some crumpled paper and a charcoal pencil from a pouch, and begins to scribble across the page. He pauses every now and then to gaze into the air and scratch at his beard before returning to his writing. Finally, he sets his pencil down, and pushes the letter over to the Captain.
"Something like this should do the trick. You'll obviously want to have the Garrison scribe rewrite it for you with a proper quill and on official parchment."
The letter reads as follows:
To his Most August and Honorable Ignatious Ironshirt, Magistrate of the 14th Ward;
Sir,
It has come to my attention that there may exist a potential threat against our fair city. A threat in the form of the otherworldly Thelugadam and his minions. Despite a number of unknowns, even the mere possibility of this Thelugadam inflicting chaos, death and destruction upon Lauralie Summerhome is of great concern to me. Unfortunately, the garrison currently lacks operatives with the proper training to investigate this matter further. While I could petition the Arch Duke for additional resources, it seems more expedient to ask for your assistance in this matter.
As it was your loyal Special Squad constables that discovered the threat posed by Thelugadam and his faction, and since your constables are already well-versed with the subject matter, I would like to place a formal request for their assistance in this matter. The Special Squad is obviously well-trained and capable of investigating the true nature of this threat, and you should be proud to have such puissant men in your service. It is obvious that you inspire great courage and loyalty in your men, and I commend you for that.
While I realize it is unusual to ask you to place your men on special detached service beyond the boundaries of the 14th Ward, I feel it is well justified in this case. Should the threat prove no more than a rumor, little will be lost by a conducting a proper investigation except for a little time, and in return you would earn the gratitude of myself and the garrison. If the threat should prove serious, though, not only could you and your men content themselves with a job well done, but I would happily pass accolades along to my superiors, enlightening them on how helpful you were, and praising your ability to see beyond the walls of your district. All in the city would know of the fine works of the Constabulary of the 14th Ward and her stalwart magistrate!
Given the nature of this threat, and knowing your reputation for expediency, I shall expect your reply in short order.
Your servant,
Captain Owlschwitz
Commandant of the Garrison

"Just tell him that your scribe is quite elegant. And leave my name out of it." The cleric smiles at the Captain and stands, smoothing his tattered surcoat with his hands as he does so. "We thank you for your time and your ear, Captain. May Meda smile upon you."
[sblock=Rhun]I think the word you were searching for is "ELOQUENT."
