<DIV class=Section1>
<P class=MsoNormal>Unto the Noble and Glorious Barony of Stierbach does
Flaithri, your Baron and sworn protector, send grave news.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Yesterday Her Excellency and I embarked on a journey to the
lands of Sacred Stone. We were accompanied by a handpicked team of skilled
Stierbach negotiators. Our goal was to seek a peaceful resolution to the
problems between Sacred Stone and Stierbach. In the end the discussions did
not go as we had hoped and seemed to have taken a turn towards
hostility. Sacred Stone made some outlandish claims (as they are known to do)
and I cannot in good conscious allow those claims to stand. Their claims are
so peculiar that I dare not write them at this time without sounding foolish.
<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>While we will continue to discuss the issues with our
cousins from the south, I fear that we will ultimately need to proactively
defend ourselves by striking deep within the lands of Sacred Stone. We have
begun asking our other cousins for support should we need to assemble a force
on short notice. Thus far we have received enthusiastic promises of support
from all those we have approached. <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I, your Baron request that all subjects of Stierbach and
her proud cantons of Sudentorre and Abhainn Iarthair begin to prepare for the
worst. Take these winter months to sharpen your blades, repair your armor,
straighten your arrows, hone your artistic splendor and rest your tired feet.
For when the snow melts I fear we will begin preparing for war.
