Miss Barer,

This letter is not a threat, but a warning. Captain Thorne intends to take your hand for daring to publicly write a name she has abandoned. I personally do not want to see any unnecessary bloodshed, so my suggestion is this: Write a public apology to the Captain, similar to the one from Lucius Westmore to Plopilibop. Ask Thorne's forgiveness for using that other name, and you may lessen her ire and keep your fingers.

the letter is unsigned
