Urgent dispatch from the Offices of the Emerald Magistrate Bayushi Sugai
Without excessive preamble, I must call upon your services in the name of the Divine Son of Heaven Emperor Hantei XXXVIII for a most urgent matter of justice.
A most senior and respected magistrate of the Fox Clan and two others have been reported dead under suspicious circumstances and that this may have inter-clan complications. For this reason it falls under the auspices of the Emerald Magistrates office. You are the closest agents in the region. Please accept the aid that I have provided and proceed with all haste to Kuna Mura in the territory of the Fox clan. 
Honourable Bushi Akodo Yasuhiro and Noble Sage Ikoma Sen, I have a pressing matter in Lion territory that also requires your attention, it is requested that you return to Ryoko Owari immediately so that I may brief you in person on this sensitive matter.
To the Proud Warrior Shinjo Takaaki, the Loyal Battlemaiden Shinjo Tomoe and the Wise Shugenja Iuchi Ayana, I grant you full discretion to investigate the matter in Kuna Mura and to make any arrests of punishments as you see fit under my authority. 
However once this has been done, send me an immediate report on your progress so that it may be reviewed. Wise and careful action is essential, but haste is also important as events may move beyond you if a swift decision is not reached.
As the formal representatives of the Emerald Magistrate I would ask that you kindly resolve this matter.
If you have any reply or missives that you wish to be passed on to your family please pass them to the honourable Imperial courier Seppun Yama and I will ensure that they are sent on swiftly and securely.
Yours Sincerely
Bayushi Sugai 										管居
Humble Servant in justice to the Divine Emperor Hantei XXXVIII
