Your Grace-

No doubt you have heard of Kentaire's seduction of that balding, pigfisting Benoit Kemp.

When he isn't trying to chase pigs down so's to better mount something (you'd think impossibly!) uglier and hairier than himself, he's betraying his own kingdom. I don't know how he ever caught up to one with his ugly bow-legs, or how he held on to one with his stubby little fingers, but he sired two sons; both of which are dead. I threw the head of one at the other in the throneroom of Lyionesse shortly before he was cut down by my husband.

Immediately following this, I was assigned the great honor of attempting to bring him back to the King's hand through diplomacy. It went as you might imagine, though I did do my best. He is convinced that his son was betrayed by dark sorcery. HA. I don't remember his reasoning for his other son being a traitor, but it all started to sound like one long irritating whine. There was a Praetor with him.

At the moment I am being threatened with undue and unfair sternness should I attempt to leave the healer's tent, so my father's Thornesmen must report to me here. I have asked Captain Zayne D'Rana to send you this letter.

I do not know what actions Kentaire may take against your Queen, but I feel it must be coming soon. They are demanding, AGAIN, that we give Prince Sylvain up to the Inquisition for trial, despite the triumph of the Royal Heir Princess Atreis in trial-by-combat against their champion, whatever the hell his name was. (I'm sorry; I don't have my notes with me, and these damn Arrani nurses are- nevermind. I only have so much paper here, and whatever this devil's liqour is they use for anaesthesia is going to kill me dead.)

Cardinal Varyth Teleko cannot be trusted; he knew at a meeting of the Council in Four Corners about the Creatures in Rikton that came after your sister's children. I went looking for evidence of heresy in his home in the city and found it, but have since been relieved of this proof. It was written by Darius. I wish I felt more relief that it was taken from me, but I don't know that it makes any difference.

Whatever the differences our kingdoms have, they must not be brought low by treachery. Watch for cardinal's guards dressed in black, trimmed with red.

Beware Teleko.
