Greetings Councilor Holgraid,

It is understandable to seek to protect your city from the effects of this sludge; you are not the only city to be doing this now, aggressively.

Duiran will not engage your military force, on the contrary, we seek your assistance and your research expertise.

The sludge has killed plants all around Sapience, and we use these to create cures for our sick and wounded. In Duiran, our Great Oak tree has been infested with this sludge as well, and we fear damage to it should be the sludge flower and bloom as it has in the past in the Aalen Forest.

With the sample of sludge that you have, is there anything you can do to help us research and either disarm it or change it? We need help finding ways to stop it from flowering and blooming to de-weaponize it once and for all. This has created a dire situation on multiple fronts.

Sincerely,
A Speaker of the Heartwood,
Aloli Gallant

Penned by my hand on Kinsday, the 19th of Variach, in the year 465 MA.
