Seneschal Hazelton,
I am writing to give notice that due to pressing business, I will be unable to attend May's formal Court. My deep apologies. I shall return in June, and should you or her grace deem it fit, I will avail myself to the appropriate authorities to seek re-acknowledgement.
Until next we meet, and congratulations on the new office.
Kind regards,
Priscus Edward Heinrich
