The first half of this letter was read aloud with much fanfare, literally.  It was spoken in such a way that it was a public announcement rather than a letter, with the addition of trumpets etc.  The second part was handed to Idris as a letter.


==================================

To Lord Idris Doryu, youngest of the Doryu heirs

Dear son,

Word of your accomplishments have reached us back here at home, and I offer you hearty congratulations on your success there.  You have done the Doryu name proud, as expected, and I shall send part of your estate to you now that you have proven yourself as worthy of our name as your brothers.

Your mother is well, as are your cousins.  Angelica wishes you to bring her a trophy from the dragon, and I am in agreement.  Its head would look superb above the fireplace in the great hall, although in addition I suggest something smaller for her. Perhaps you could bring some snowmelt from the mountain peak for your mother, as I hear that is good for the health.


I await news of the time of arrival,

Your father,
Lord Eladriel "Lioncrown" Doryu, Sworn Duke of the Lord's Alliance, Master of Guilds, Marquis of Waterdeep and Doryu family Patriarch.

However, on to business. I should like to know when you intend to return home now that further family honor has been secured.  I hear you have accepted the protectorship of Leilon, but I am sure that you will be able to appoint others in your stead that will be sufficient to watch over such a small project in your absence.  You see, you are needed back home to undertake your role in the family business as the Doryu heir. This may come as unexpected news as the youngest but your siblings are otherwise occupied.

Yuu has made many victories hunting the pirates of The Whalebones, bringing order to that previously tainted place. However it does seem he will be occupied for the next years to come.
Jin has been sent to Silverymoon as an ambassador to learn the intricacies of trade. He has made a good impression on the High Lady and has been brought into inner circles.
As for your sister Azore, she has brought shame upon the family. She was nearing the end of her tests as an applicant to the Blackstaff Tower, only months away from her becoming one of the Blackstaff's apprentices. She has abandoned her duty and left leaving no word where she went. As such, until she returns to home with an explanation she is considered persona-non-grata.

So you see my boy, you are needed here. These cults have been extremely disruptive to trade and a firm showing of power, by your appointment, will surely keep our assets better secured.
