Rosa and M&M's Correspondence[]
This is a pile of correspondence between a technician, Rosa, in Rediesel Desert and M&M Second-hand Parts Store in Umbraton. To get cheap parts for her modification projects, Rosa reached out to the parts store M&M in Umbraton that had exactly what she needed. Their cooperation went on for over a decade until Rosa passed away. We could have a peek at the daily life in Rediesel Desert and Umbraton through these letters.
Introduction[]
It took some twists and turns before the ordered parts finally reached Rosa. She decided to use the Courier Union for her order letters from then on. The reply from M&M was written by Minny, the store owner's daughter.
First Year's Correspondence II[]
Dear Mr. Max and Minny,
I only received the parts from the caravan yesterday. I guess one should never expect a good courier service from a caravan. It's their job to wander around and trick ignorant first nations. So I'm using a proper courier this time. I only discovered recently that the Courier Union has a post not too far from our camp. Spending a couple of hours in the morning to drop my packet at their post is a better option for me. I heard the Courier Union also has a good reputation in Umbraton. You don't have to deal with the caravan from now on.
This time I need some special metals. It doesn't have to be raw materials. Parts that contain such metals would do the same. Please bill me for the parts. A list of the metals is provided on the back of this letter.
I have enclosed another 1,500 Nightium. Please keep the extra if there's any and kindly consider it a deposit for my future orders. I have too many things to fix and reassemble in Rediesel Desert. Even those I have already done will crash or break sooner or later.
By the way, the thing I'm trying to remodel is a hovercar. Some girl might be interested in this piece of information.
Yours sincerely,
Rosa
Written on a cold evening
Dear Lady Rosa,
It's Minny. You can tell by the handwriting that I didn't write the title. I would never use such an old-school opening. I'm so glad you didn't call me a miss this time. It feels much nicer. But your last lines couldn't be more obvious! Father looked at me suspiciously as soon as he read your letter and told me to "take care of this reply to Lady Rosa since you loved to write so much." This is why I'm writing to you by lamp right now.
Now let's get to business. Father would write many useless words here, like "The special metals you required have been packed by categories and sent to Rediesel Desert using the Courier Union" or something along the line. It's probably hard for him to accept that you will receive this letter and all the parts simultaneously.
The 1,500 Nightium you sent this time is not quite enough. You owe us 327 Nightium now. We have opened a book exclusively for Lady Rosa from Rediesel Desert to record your payments and expenses. Father thought it was his best-ever business plan.
I happen to notice that the special metals on your order are all essential materials for making prostheses. God bless it is not for you.
Yours,
Minny and Max
