Esteemed leaders of the Corsair Empire.

I am Warden Collins, successor of Warden Hitcher as the leader of the Guard. Over the past few months, it has come to my, and my colleagues', attention that the Empire seems to have a radically different approach to the conflict ravaging Bretonia space. The differing approaches have already led to tensions between us and various subgroups of the Empire, and the Guard is worried that the situation might detoriate our relations with your people as a whole.

As such, we have elected not to make the Empire's mistake and ask before acting. What is the Empire's alignment in the war? What are the Empire's plans for the region? Has the Empire reached an accord with Gallia? Why has the Empire not consulted their local allies beforehand?

We await your response.
