A letter is send this time to the Adliye of the Martyrs, addressed to Avukat Umil Salah.
Aunt Umil,
I am sorry to report I have hit a snag. The Legates (the two of them serve as Ephia's leaders together) are unable to sign this document as you have provided it. It is a tight time for the budget of the Well, and with the main focus of their coffers supporting the oncoming war, I am told this arrangement will 'incur various bureaucratic and other costs for the state.' They have requested they receive a suitable contribution of dinari to the state's treasury, the exact number being ten thousand. Though the next bank is far, I am loath to deny their request without first sending word to the Adliye. I will receive any letter sent to the maqam here, or a direct delivery by terracotta will not be unwelcome.
Fruit, bear your works,
Tariq Salah, Preparator of The Twindari
