The message comes by carrier pigeon actually, which is a pretty weird way to deliver a message but of course, it's thematic. A very pretty looking brown pigeon swoops down out of the sky to wherever Noctis just so happens to be that afternoon and holds out its leg. The message is short and simple:
Got a job for you. Meet me at the farm at dusk. No show, no job. Keep it a secret, rewarded very well.
- Hal
P.S. Burn this.
And that's it. Of course, if Noctis chooses to listen to the message, he will find the Sheriff at the farm at dusk, chewing a piece of tobacco and watching the sun set. He'll be greeted with a tip of his hat and one word:
"Bounty."
And then he holds out a small notebook. Looks like Noctis's been chosen for one of those roles that were mentioned. Good luck.
Guess you've got no reason to, it just seemed... like a bit much.
[especially considering the role of the bounties. but it's... fine?
(it's not that fine, is anything really ever fine?)]
I was just curious, it's not that important now that it's done. [even if it's messed up.] Actually had a bigger question, but I'm not sure it's anything you'd even answer. Not... looking to waste your time or anything.
[thanks, hal. at least noct's trying to be chill about it this time.]
Is there something else we're missing? We haven't found anything but... I feel like there's something... more. That we're missing to get to the end of this the right way.
[he just isn't sure what, but nothing else has been so cut-and-dry here.]
So... it's just a matter of putting everything together.
[nothing "missing" in a literal sense, but—] Is there anything else we can do with what we've got aside from the things from the rulebook? Not asking for what, just...
I guess if we're overlooking something that could end this better, or something.

And I told all of 'em. It's usually my last resort if they don't wanna comply. It's pretty annoying that I gotta enforce it.
