Franz had found two very good candidates, an 18 year old tall Lucius and a 19 year old Ludwiga. Both of them seemed to be quite agile and can read and write, they also both really want to do this.
"I have chosen you two as the foundation of my little guild or agency. From you I require your up most discipline and loyalty. As an assassin you must be able to quickly kill your foes, you will be using cheap tactics to overcome people, you will manipulate people and morals play no role. You will be noticed only when you want to be, you must be able to fit into a crowd seamlessly, you must be subtle. Everything is allowed in our line of work, but I must have your up most loyalty, you must be willing to do everything to finish the task at hand. You will be trained into pure professionals by me.
Wash yourselves and groom yourselves, tomorrow you will be going to the library."
Franz hands them 2 letters, both indicating that he gives them permission to use the full reach of the library under his family's name.
A few days later Franz visits Hugo, who has a job for him.
Listening to Hugo about the juicy assignment he smiles a bit.
"I'll gladly accept and here I was thinking that you would give me some puny thief or something like that."
Franz reads the file and gives the apprentices the task of studying anatomy, biology, alchemy, engineering, history, geography and literature.
