To the honourable Mirumoto Takezo-dono,
The Lion offer warm greetings to the noble Dragon Clan, and wish to officially recognise and thank the Dragon for the recent appointment of Ambassador to the Lion, Kitsuki Kai-sama. We are certain that his new duties will help foster a new era of cooperation between the children of Akodo and Togashi.
Indeed, much is changing around us, both for better, like the recent ascension of our glorious emperor Hantei XL (long may he reign) to the Steel Throne, and for worse, like the incursion of the filthy gaijin who blaspheme the Celestial Order in the Unicorn lands. Even old feuds like the matter of the Tonbo have finally been laid to rest, and the Lion have contributed what we can to their rebuilding, now that honour has been satisfied.
Indeed, the Lion rest secure in the knowledge that the Dragon still faithfully carry out their duty to watch and record the history of the empire, as Hantei-no-Kami charged Togashi-no-Kami at the dawn of the Empire. Therefore, the Lion humbly request the support of the Dragon in the case of the Kawa Mitsu Kishi dispute, for the Dragon have seen the history of the empire unfold for centuries and will no doubt know that the lands about the Three Side River have traditionally been entrusted to the Lion. Thus, it is only right that we continue to administer these lands in the name of the Emperor, and use them to bring glory to his name.
The Lion were the first to rally behind the Dragon in several issues raised in Winter Court, including the matter of the ronin interference in the border incident at the Three Side River, as well as the rejection of the trade route with the gaijin. It is our sincere hope that we may continue to stand as one for many years to come, and that together, Rokugan will continue to endure as a glorious example of the Celestial Order.
Carry the Fortunes,
Kitsu Natsuki, Ambassador to the Dragon
