*The note is quickly and silently left at the fortress*
Prince of Lower,
I would like to meet with you, though at this time I cannot enter your kingdom and remain for long enough to have a civil conversation. If we could speak somewhere else, outside the city, it would be preferred. I will leave it to you to set a time and the place. I will come alone, though naturally I do not expect the same of you. Your guard will not make any difference to this conversation, as I wish it to be a peaceful one. It is my will that our two houses can come to an understanding which will allow us both to benefit. You may leave word at Thomas', or send someone to deliver it to me.
Xullbryn, of House Alean'Ana
