A letter to the Duchy of the North

Sir
At this most grievous time I am writing on behalf of my husband the Duke.As I am sure you will be aware, for Tradgardland, the tides of war wash upon our shores from within and without. I am seeking your aid that we northern states may rely one upon the other in times of discord. I request you to send an ambassador forthwith to our capital to discuss mutual aid .
Fraternally yours
