First Letter Jack, I had intended to leave Madame Truc's by now, but I think I'm stuck here for a while. She has decided to take me under her wing—metaphorically not literally, for which I am grateful—and has not only rallied her friends to find me a job as a clerk in a shipping firm, … Continue reading Letters from Armorica- Madame Truc’s Table (30 Mai 33AF)

Letters from Armorica: Clerk (23 Mai 33 AF)
First Letter Dear Mum, As of yesterday morning, thanks to the machinations of Madame Truc, I am the newest clerk at the firm of Suprenant & Fils. S&F is one of the smaller merchant houses in Mont-Havre but it has a good reputation; it was one of the first to be founded and its headquarters … Continue reading Letters from Armorica: Clerk (23 Mai 33 AF)
Letters From Armorica: Madame Truc (16 Mai 33 AF)

First Letter Dear Mum, I'm settled in Mont-Havre, at least for a little while, so you can safely send me letters. Send them to Armand Tuppenny, in care of the Courier's Guild, or as they mostly call it here, the Guilde du Courriers. A lot of the names are like that here, which is funny, … Continue reading Letters from Armorica: The First Day (9 Mai 33 AF)
Letters from Armorica: Arrival (9 Mai 33 AF)
Dear Mum, The Lombard is supposed to make landfall tomorrow. I was going to wait and write you once I'm settled, but a man just came round and told us all to write our letters now if we want them to go back with the ship. He's right, I guess. It took us three months … Continue reading Letters from Armorica: Arrival (9 Mai 33 AF)
