Most Noble Samurai,
It has been a most difficult year for our beloved Empire. Various and sundry threats have come very close to destroying all that we hold dear. However, we have banded together as a nation and found the strength to overcome adversity. By the grace of the Heavens we have pulled through another dark period in our history and are all the stronger for it.
Hold no illusions though, there is still much to do. We are now entering a time where we must rebuild our Empire and restore it to its place as the shining jewel of the world. Her majesty, Empress Totutri II has declared that this must commence forthwith and that as we enter the winter season all courts throughout the empire will ensure that their ranks are filled and that all able bodies are ready and willing to serve.
Her Majesty will set the example in Her own court, to be held in the most auspicious Kyuden Meiyo in the Lands of the Lion. The previously defunct Imperial Court must be reassigned and will be done so by Her Imperial Majesty pending council of the heads of the Great Clans and Her other advisors.
Those who have received this missive are hereby invited to attend Her Imperial Majesty at Shiro Akodo for the Winter Court of the Year Tsudao 1, or 1160 by the Isawa Calendar. Secondary documents included with this missive hold allowances for necessary staff and retainers. Please be advised that invitees must respond promptly to ensure proper preparations are made for all clan members who will attend the court. As well, please send ahead any requirements for special requirements so that preparations may be made before the Winter season.
May the Blessings of Heaven accompany you,
Ikoma Yakushi,
Acting Imperial Scribe
