To Claudia Marque, Proprietor of the Marque Trade Consortium,

It has come to my attention that a convoy of your supplies was disrupted near Bogwood. In times as volatile as these, it is inevitable that hostile forces will seek to exploit any perceived weakness.

If your enemies grow bold, it may be wise to consider more secure routes or the use of stronger escort forces. Bogwood, as always, remains vigilant and resilient against all who threaten its stability.

Had I been informed of a convoy operating within my vicinity, appropriate measures could have been taken to ensure its passage. A lack of communication in these dangerous times can lead to unfortunate misunderstandings. Moving forward, it would be prudent to share operational plans when traversing territories secured by Dragonborn forces.

There are those who would capitalize on the chaos to further their own ends. It would be prudent to reassess your allies and ensure that your intentions align. Loyalty is a fragile thing when power and opportunity intersect.

Respectfully,
Valtharix the Scaled Tyrant
Lord of Bogwood
