Correspondence from The Imperial Court
Renewed intelligence from multiple corroborated sources have confirmed what Chairman has stated.
There are civil and public atrocities being hidden in Östlaed.
You are to cease these actions and explain yourself before a judiciary hearing immediately.
Failure to do so will result in further Council backed sanctions and restrictions on foreign trade and Östron vessels, merchants and imports until your values return once more to those our Empire has held dear and proudly displayed for hundreds of years.
For Glory.

Official Correspondence from the Ealdorman of ÖstlaedThere is a difference between wholesale slaughter (something the Council has engaged in and never been charged of in centuries past) and the punishment of a local ruler who broke laws.
Your impotent Empire has no say in whether religion freedoms are public are not - these peoples are still free to practice their heretical multi-spiritualism in their homes, however, their heretical shrines will not be allowed in our villages.
This is very similar to a standing law that Östlaed has had for nearly 50 years - that foreign religions may not build shrines in our land.
To raise issue now is hypocritical, ignorant, and divisive against our population.
Furthermore, I am not afraid of "the Council" - a body of empty, weak realms who stand on power derived from bribes given long ago to a dead realm.
The publication of this letter will have great consequences.
Your Empire is doomed.
