(The original job posting, below, has been pinned to the lintel of the barrack door with a knife. This is apparently Hellion's standard way of summoning recruits for a job. Hellion has a nasty reputation with some but many are in awe of his rate of job completion which is half-again any other guild member.)
The Dogs [1] need aid: The groundskeeper at Redstone House [2] is a Dog and has indicated that there's repetitive and mysterious damage to the property. He is responsible for cleaning up the damage and finding a way to clear up whatever situation is causing it. We would like an individual with a flexible conflict resolution style to deliver a package to him and assist him in discovering and handling his situation. Once the job is done to his satisfaction, he will provide you with a token which you will tender for payment back in the city.
Attached to the bottom of the posting is Hellion's addendum:
No wusses, whiners, or lawyers. Make sure you can handle the job before you sign up.
[1]: DM's note: The dogs are a "guild" (neighborhood association / political group) originally specializing in Animal Husbandry, Weaving, and Provisioning.
[2]: DM's note: Redstone House is a noble's estate which will require a few days to travel to. As with most nobles' estates, anyone who has a job there is also a resident.
