Apologizing for the messy brevity, hard to avoid with no eyes, Volk reports that Brencis's men offered him a fortune in denarii to set a trap, and that he thought hard and refused.
Unwilling to be a burden and unsuited to retirement, he is leaving on one last journey, content whether it brings him somewhere more interesting or breaks his neck.
He asks Coen to care for his sword, wishes it serve well, and adds a postscript: don't be so serious, life's a big joke.
The letter is quest-related.
