OFFICIAL DECLARATION
On the 3rd day of Nesan in the year 1303, the Council of Nine proclaims that Illian refuses to swear allegiance to Saniago Torres. It has been determined that this man is a false Dragon.
Saniago Torres and his followers are recognized as enemies of the Laurel Crown. Their apprehension, dead or alive, is now the top priority in Illian. The Council of Nine, for the time being, offers a reward for the head of followers of the false Dragon. Information leading to Saniago and his followers' arrest or demise may also be rewarded. Please provide information or proof of death or capture to the Council of Nine.
Illian is willing to pledge assistance to other nations in the fight against the false Dragon. The only thing we ask for in return is that you pledge the same to Illian. Please contact the Council of Nine if you are interested in entering into a formal agreement. The Council prefers these, and stresses that they are better for all as they may include other benefits.
The members of the Council of Nine are as follows: Lord Atienne, Lord Sarryn, and Kerryk.
(signed in beautiful handwriting)

Lord Sarryn Del'Sol, Second Captain of the Illian Companions, member of the Council of Nine
