To the High Honorable Idril, Governor of the City of Yew and Protector of Its Environs,
Having received word of the death of Abbot Costello while in custody at Yew Prison, the brothers of Empath Abbey are in a period of mourning after which time a new abbot shall be elected.
During the time of mourning and until such time as a new abbot is seated, the doors to Empath Abbey shall remain sealed. This is necessary not only to maintain the proper state of solemnity but also to prevent outside interference in the election process and provide for the safety of the brothers in these dark times.
We regret any inconvenience caused by the closing of the inn and library to outsiders. Please be assured that all city funds, as well as those of individuals, shall remain safe in the abbey bank even though none shall have access to then during this time.
The brotherhood is distraught over the recent deaths of 6 of our brothers recently in addition to the severe beating of 8 more in your and the King's presence last eve.
Abbot Costello's pleas for protection and assistance appear to have been in vain. The brothers of Empath Abbey hereby appoint the one known as the Grand Inquisitor to investigate the recent deaths and conduct all business on the abbey's behalf and with its full power and authority until such time as an Abbot is installed.
We trust that the Grand Inquisitor will receive your full trust and cooperation.
The Brotherhood of Empath Abbey
