Dearest Aoife
Following our talks at the Highland Games it was clear that you intended to set Eigg on a path towards independence however I had no suspicion you would trigger this ambition so fully so quickly. Having read comments in your national media I am concerned that the Federation may seek to take action against you should the result go the way we both know it likely will. As such should you need to leave Eigg quickly I have instructed HMS
Walter Bell to delay leaving the Alucard following our recent exercises. Troops on board including a four man unit from the GDS Special Forces have been put on notice that should you request it they are to secure you and bring you to a safe port of shelter. When the time comes you can guarantee that this Federation in Ruasliabh stands squarely behind Eigg, and behind your reign.
We wish your vote on Thursday well and hope there will be no need to take up our offer.
