Questor Offer
I am desperate. The Dark Brotherhood has taken my child [child] and will kill [him/her] if I do not pay a ransom. I do not have enough to buy [his/her] freedom, but I can pay you [money] gold pieces if you will free [him/her].
My child, my poor [child] is gone, stolen away by the Dark Brotherhood for [a god] knows what hideous purpose. You must help me, [your first name]. I'll give you all I have, [money] gold, if you will bring my child back home to me.

This is a dark day for me. [child] will surely be slain by the Dark Brotherhood. May [his/her] ghost haunt you for the rest of your days!
