[ Yseult has called the meeting, so it's her office they're in, the chairs before the (cold) hearth turned to face the sofa against the wall to make room for all four. Yseult has claimed the corner of that sofa nearest the window, where the occasional breeze can be felt. Everyone's here, everyone has a drink from her excellent-by-Riftwatch-standards bar cabinet, so she swallows a sip of rum and begins. ]

I have intelligence that the Antivan Merchant Prince Bonaiuto Cellini has two ships soon departing bound for Val Chevin. I think it's time we revisited the question of using the ships at our disposal for privateering.
