[A well-sealed missive to Legate Qari from Radislav Ludovich.]

Owing to our earlier discussions, I have prepared lists for revisions.
Legally, I believe you have the authority to request our case files.
Individual testimonies regarding the Torchbearers will be brought to you in person.

These are the charges to be arrayed in the event of their failure, and their legal grounding.

Let's meet again and discuss how to progress.
