Dear Apprentice,

I fear our lessons must be postponed yet again. Knyaz Brencis demands our further assistance, as though conjuring him up an entire troop of undying creatures was not enough.

Now we are to investigate a certain ritual he intends to perform at his grand coronation. Once you have returned, come to see me and I shall explain all in suitable detail.

Also, fetch everything we possess on Anachora, and the usage of blood as a conduit.

In trust,

A.
