The Bride of Light and Flame bids you good tidings. Her Majesty's attention has been brought to the fact that you have used Atar's gift of fire wantonly within the walls of Haven against the Empyrean known as Maximus. At this time, her Majesty desires to remind you that the Amir-al's decree of protection for Varati extends only to those who defend the honor of the Maharani and himself. All other honor insults must be settled outside the walls of Haven should you desire the protection of the walls of Atesh-Gah against the justice of the Hounds. Should the Hounds choose to ignore your actions and disregard Delphi's will concerning unsanctioned use of magic, that is up to them. This letter serves only to remind you that the walls of Atesh-Gah and the might of the Amir-al protects only those who defend his honor and that of the Maharani.
