Dear, your Majesty, the Queen,

It is me who write this letter to you, Wilfred Astray.

I found my successor.

Do you remember the promise that we made 20 years ago? 

The contract that bind me with a certain responsibility.

You as a 15-year-old girl come to me who just a blacksmith and ask for my help to secure the throne.

At that time I was just one lost old man, who was far from his family and without a friend. Man who probably at the lowest point of his life.

You helped me by uniting me with my family.

Thus, to you, who helped someone like me, I trust the future of this kingdom.

First, I created for you one halberd. It is your responsibility to unite the kingdom with that halberd.

You already fulfill this promise.

Second, you gave me the title of a Noble and the middle 'Bright'. It is my responsibility to continue my bloodline, the one that one day will become 'your' servant at the time of need.

I already fulfill that.

Third, you gave me the title as the 'King of Iron' and a place for me to teach my technique. My responsibility is to find the successor of my technique and your responsibility is to make that said successor to trust you and the kingdom.

This has yet been fulfilled.

I've realized that I'm getting older and older over the years. I can't even swing my hammer as good as I was before.

At that time of desperation, I finally found him. The one who succeeded in my technique.

I gave him the hammer that once was mine. With that, you can use it to confirm his identity.

This fulfilled my part of the contract and what's left is now just your part of it.

With this, I also will stop teaching as a blacksmith.

Please treat him with your kindness, treat him as well as you treated me before.

With respect,

Wilfred Bright Astray.
