Arzhani,
On behalf of the Thirteenth Imperial Shalumite Expeditionary Force, I would like to express my greetings to you in a humble manner. I am sure many have said it, but it is a great honor to serve not only my fatherland, but a nation that has come to be a second home of mine, the Military Protectorate of Nalaya. My name may not be familiar to you, and that is very understandable given how many parts it takes to run a formation as large as the 13th Imperial SEF; but perhaps you will recognize the name of my fiancé Ada Narekatsi, who is the acting Hramatar of the Hreshtakneri Brigadi.
While, in most cases, I would further like to introduce myself and lay out my position in the Imperial war machine, I will save that for another time. I understand that you are a very important woman, as I am a very busy man, and I wish to get directly to the point of this letter.
Approximately two hours ago, General Dieter Malcomson was dismissed as the commanding officer of the 13th SEF, and I was order to take his place as the Major General of Imperial forces deployed to southern and central Nalaya. The reasons for this are currently being kept from the public and media until press secretaries back home can formulate proper statements; however, I have no issues sharing the reasons for it now. In the shortest way I can explain it: General Malcomson disobeyed several orders given to him by the High Kommand of the Shalumite Armed Forces, displeased the Imperator of the Empire in the process, and worst of all, sacrificed his duty to the Nalayan people in order to achieve ‘victories’ over Nava’ai forces. He put personal glory ahead of what it means to be a noble soldier, a true leader, and a peacemaker.
I will admit, in the short time that I have acted as commander of the 13th, things have been quite chaotic; between trying to get an understanding of what is happening in Massis, and attempting to grow accustom to my new duties in such a short time span. Even so, I have read over some reports and files of my predecessor, and I was shocked to find that he had not even taken the first steps towards handing over the Maldorian rapists and slavers over to your people. It appears that he was content to let them rot while he fought ‘his war,’ instead of handing them over to the proper authorities.
Let me assure you, Arzhani, that I wish to make dealing with these criminals one of my top priorities. The Maldorians are nothing but scum of the earth, and they deserve whatever punishment you and your people deliver to them, not to mention what they may face in the afterlife. So I ask of you: please tell me a place in your country that I can send these criminals, or a TRC representative who I can get in contact with so that we can at least begin the transfer process. I assure you, within a half-hour of your response to this letter, I can have them loaded onto trucks and ready to be moved where you tell me to send them.
I will end by saying this, Arzhani, that I fully offer my services to you-- as any officer in my position should. The lands that my soldiers fight upon are not our own. They are your people’s, something that my predecessor failed to respect, a mistake I will not allow myself to make. If there is anything that you ever need of me, please do not hesitate to ask.
I look forward to corresponding with you further in the future.
It is my honor to be,
Major General James Tiberius Blackburn

Arzhani,
A good and profitable day to you, Protector Khavar, may the pillars of law and order; erected by by the will of the Nalayan people, support your efforts as the leader of a nation during these dark and uncertain times that we currently find ourselves in. Though we are separated by great distances and different cultures, I wish to begin my message to you by offering a thousand humble greetings, as our friends in Hostillia would.
In life, there are many things a man in my position must do. During my youth, it was something my father told me more times than I could ever hope to count, but I never truly understood what he meant until I rose to the position of Imperator. There are a great many things I could say, flowery language that means really means very little when you begin to pick it apart. I am not the person who prefers that to cold hard facts, so I will not waste your time by having you read that sort of thing. I like to think of myself as a man of truth, so I will speak it.
I have greatly erred against you and your nation, Arzhani, and have become the source of many pains. While I am certain it will give you little solace, I truly mean it when I say this: I am sorry. As the saying goes, ‘the road to hell is paved with good intentions.’ I meant well, but I failed in my own duties.
With a desire to see the war end quickly, lest more innocents perish, I sent a commander who was not capable of seeing past his own pursuits of glory. In an effort to save the lives of Shalumite servicemen, I sent tribal warriors in their place, men whose hearts were black and corrupt, driven by their own evil desires. Those are but a few examples of where I have stumbled as a leader. While I cannot go back in time and prevent what did from happening, I can submit myself to you; hoping that you will be merciful enough to allow myself and my troops to continue working alongside you, so that we may repair what has been damaged and pave the way for a better, more whole and united future for Nalaya in the future.
As I am sure you have heard by now, I have instructed General Blackburn to turn over the custody of all Maldorian criminals to your government or intelligence services. The same order was given to General Malcomson; however, it is apparent to us now that he never did as was instructed. Speaking of him, I have instructed that he be returned to the Empire. While he is not yet aware of it, upon his return to Shalum, we will begin the process of reviewing him. At the very least, he should expect a dishonorable discharge from the Imperial Shalumite Armed Forces; unless the Ministry of Justice recommends he be prosecuted for crimes against Nalaya and her people, at which time he will instead be court martialed. He will not go unpunished for his crimes, that I assure you.
I would like to end this letter on the reason I am writing it. For some time now, my ambassador has requested that I come to Nalaya, so that I may meet with you and your government. My wife, Allison, who you have met before, has echoed similar sentiments to me, and I have come to agree with both her and my ambassador in Sevan. Given events that have occurred over the last couple of weeks, I believe that it may be best if I visit your nation for some time, so that we can meet properly in person. I am sure that there are a great number of things that we could or need to discuss if we are to work together more closely in the future. However, the decision to meet ultimately is up to you, for I do not wish to impose myself.
Thank you for your time, Arzhani T’avish
It is my honor to be,
Imperator Tyler Holland of the Empire of Shalum
