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 Milla 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 Milla chooses to listen to the message, she will find the Sheriff at the farm at dusk, chewing a piece of tobacco and watching the sun set. She'll be greeted with a tip of his hat and one word:
"Bounty."
And then he holds out a small notebook. Looks like Milla's been chosen for one of those roles that were mentioned. Good luck.
[each answer just causes her to ask more questions tbh]
. . . and you'll have to forgive me for being dubious, but that almost seems too easy. For us to be sent home even if the winner doesn't ask for it, I mean. Is there some sort of catch we're missing?
[there's a pause and she lifts a hand to her chin as she tries to think of more questions]
-- ah. This came up at one of our meetings, but now that the entire group of Bounties is assembled, we were wondering if the normal Bounties-- myself, Shinnosuke and Noctis-- have any further duties to carry out.

[ A shrug. ]
Catch about what?
no subject
About winning. About you stepping in to send everyone home should you deem the winner's request unfair.

I suppose that's good, then. I'd like for you to not have to do it this time around, as well.
[but now she has another question]
. . . what if we don't wish to have our memories of this place erased?
no subject
Then you don't. All you gotta do is ask.
