LftC: Arrival at Granite Harbour

To High Administrator Ifigenia Gardoy, Imperial Foreign Relations

I am sorry to inform you that I will not be able to assist Patxi per her request. Sha has been assassinated prior to my arrival at Granite Harbour. Furthermore, the Caravan is in shambles following her demise, without a clear successor. They will need new directions and quickly, lets the Caravan initiative implodes.

The situation is very tentative here in the frozen wastes. The spirits are restless, more so than usual, as the others have informed me, and anti-Imperial sentiment are worryingly high. It seems the Caravan have left some very big footsteps behind them. That, or the Caravan has suffered from really bad luck.

However, the situation isn't beyond recovery. Following my arrival, myself and other ranking members of the Caravan were invited to Lady and Lord Foran's banquet. Whispers throughout the city suggest the Forans are among the most influential noble houses here, who are also in favour of improved Imperial relations with the North. Sounds like I have my work cut out for me.

Until the next report

Lady Venus of House Izarza, 17th heir to emperor Zeledon
