The letter

by S. Lynn

Ravyn sat on a park bench looking across Turtle Pond. She played with a large coin in her hand, scanning it’s features. It was bigger than a silver dollar, and presented a family crest. She had recieved it in the mail about a week ago, along with a letter:

Dear Ms. Ravyn Hopkins,

I have heard much about you, and you wonderful talents. To no extent can I not be jealous of you intellegence on some matters. Which brings me to what I am writing to you about.

Currently, I have in my possession a map of sorts, one passed down in my family. I know that you are one with maps, and are gifted with the ability to problem solve. I need your help with this map, and it proceedings. In this envolope I have placed a coin, with my family’s crest. It is what I hope to find and much more with your help. I wish that you will accompany on my journey, I will split the profit.

If you have decided to accompany me, meet me in Central Park, Turtle pond, at noon next Tuesday.

Sincerely,
Anonymous

    This is a nice start to a mystery with maybe a little magic mixed in? Also, I love the way you spelled Ravyn.
