 The Scarnettis are Sandpoint's most notorious noble family, and many of Sandpoint's elderly Varisian locals still haven't forgotten or forgiven [[game_systems:pathfinder:runelords:Founding_of_Sandpoint|Alamon Scarnetti's assault]] on their people more than 40 years ago, even with Alamon 20 years in the ground at the Sandpoint Cemetery. The Scarnetti family, now headed by Alamon's only surviving son, Titus Scarnetti, controls Sandpoint's mills and the lumber industry. Their control over the lumber the Valdemars need for their enterprises is not lost on the Scarnettis, and they use this fact as often as possible to leverage Valdemar support. The Scarnettis are easily Sandpoint's most traditional family, who cling to old Chelish values that are, in many cases, outdated today The Scarnettis are Sandpoint's most notorious noble family, and many of Sandpoint's elderly Varisian locals still haven't forgotten or forgiven [[game_systems:pathfinder:runelords:Founding_of_Sandpoint|Alamon Scarnetti's assault]] on their people more than 40 years ago, even with Alamon 20 years in the ground at the Sandpoint Cemetery.

 With this in mind, it is somewhat of a surprise when a well dressed messenger approaches the Guard House and inquires of the ladies if they and the other “Heroes of Sandpoint” would attend lunch with Titus Scarnetti. The ladies accept and wait an hour. Just as they are leaving, the men show up, Al having caught up to the would be paramour, giving him brotherly ribbing about the episode. The two are interested in attending and they four take the long hike out of the city to the Scarnetti Manor house.  With this in mind, it is somewhat of a surprise when a well dressed messenger approaches the Guard House and inquires of the ladies if they and the other “Heroes of Sandpoint” would attend lunch with Titus Scarnetti.

 At this point, Bethana hands Al the note. Although it was written in Minkaian (likely to keep prying eyes from reading it, Bethana muses), Ameiko had been teaching Bethana the language over the last few years. The halfling has helpfully already translated the note's message on the opposite side.  At this point, Bethana hands Al the note.

 The note is from her brother, Tsuto, inviting her to meet him at the Glassworks saying their father might have something to do with the recent troubles in Sandpoint. Al knows this is strange, because in his talks with his new friend he learned about her half brother. Bethan does not know this and she explains to Al hat Tsuto was something of a scandal when he was born back in 4688 (a year before Ameiko), since he's a half-elf. Bethana sagely notes, with big eyes, that neither of Ameiko's parents are elves. It was obvious that old Lonjiku wasn't the boy's father, and his rage at the discovery of his wife's indiscretion was the talk of the town for months. Lonjiku's wife Atsuii never revealed who the father was, and it's a testament to Lonjiku's stubbornness that they remained married. Tsuto was handed over to the Turandarok Academy to be raised outside of the Kaijitsu family, ignored by his father and forbidden visits from his mother. Ameiko starting visiting him in secret once she learned about his existence at the age of 10, visiting him a few times a month to keep him company, bring him some food, and promise him that someday things would get all sorted out. That all changed in 4705, when they had a terrible argument in which Tsuto struck Ameiko. Bethana doesn't know what the argument was about, but whatever it was sent Ameiko away from Sandpoint for a year, during which time she made a living as an adventurer. She returned to Sandpoint a year later to attend her mother's funeral. Tsuto was quite public in his opinions that his father had pushed Atsuii off a cliff to her death, and during the funeral there was a confrontation. Lonjiku nearly broke Tsuto's jaw with his cane, after which Tsuto cursed him and left Sandpoint. Ameiko has tried to reestablish contact with him ever since, but was never able to track him down. The note is from her brother, Tsuto, inviting her to meet him at the Glassworks saying their father might have something to do with the recent troubles in Sandpoint.
