My Dear General Marcisław Kliatbatrn, Your concern and loyalty is commended but in this matter unneeded. Count György Thurzó is yet a fool who thinks himself wise and that all around him are blind, deaf and simple. Fear not for his panic and prattle. I have the matter of the Shining Wyrm well in hand. Mathias is too distant, too slow and far too late to have any consequence in this matter. On your return we will have the wayward daughter found and taken from my larders to recover.

That so much pain came from the unfortunate wandering and mistaken identity of one foolish girl is more proof of the King and his chosen council's incompetence. This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there. There is no danger or concern from Jewel or her family. Her brother and mother should be informed ahead of your arrival that they will attend the caravan to Kaeketeh and should bring finery befitting glorious feasts and declarations of great renown.

The House of Rochford will be receiving accolades and needs to look the part for it. Also tell that fool Thurzó his daughter should be hale and ready to return home after the festivities. Your Liege commands it. Countess Elizibeth Bathory of Viznove. - Military order from Elizibeth Bathory of Viznove to Baron Marcisław of Kliatbatrn
