=== Pirate Threat on Cordor ===
Dear Accords Ally,

It has been reported by the Knight-Admiral of Cordor that the pirate Drossiaco has publically proclaimed he will kill Chancellor Isabel of Cordor and any that stand with her. Drossiaco is said to have gathered all of the pirate remnants of Sencliff to his side for this purpose.

We would ask of our allies to be vigilent at this time; to be prepared for calls of assistance, and to offer no shelter to pirates that would seek to harm the duly elected government of Cordor.

The totality of the Administration of Cordor stands in solidarity with Chancellor Isabel.

Lady Vice-Chancellor,
