Guard Eternal Letter: Fencer Letter Thư trong Valor Mortis

Captain Renaud,

Your concerns are noted — and irrelevant. Burn the report and forget its contents.

Let me be clear: the asset you are protecting is not merely 'valuable'. Consider it the very soul of the empire, and guard it accordingly.

This is not heroism I ask of you, but absolute compliance: you and your men of the Eternal Guard will die before you let it fall into unauthorised hands.

Failure in this task — or any further hesitation — will not be met with an honourable death on the field.

The guillotine awaits all who falter.

The Guard is eternal.

Let your name be remembered with honour.

Général de Brigade H. Dubois

Vive l'Empereur!
