My Queen,
I hereby report on the progress of our mission. To date, thirty-four obsidian arches have been destroyed, not counting those of Hekamwt, which our predecessors dealt with prior to the founding of our order.
However, we have less favorable news to convey: we have detected the presence of underwater arches. These are far more difficult to excavate due to their submersion.
As you instructed, all recovered materials have been destroyed, and their ashes buried in sealed urns. We sincerely hope our efficiency meets your expectations.
Respectfully,
Hephis, Captain of the Apep-Duat.

Captain Hephis,
I am more than pleased with this news. I will ensure the necessary resources are deployed to destroy the underwater arches. I will pay out of my own riches if need be.
I suggest you turn your attention to the continent where Alveare lies. I have personally documented numerous cursed sites in those lands during my travels.
Furthermore, be advised that the budget for Apep-Duat’s personnel and equipment was tripled even before hearing from you. Your new recruits will join you at the rendez-vous point attached to this missive.
Continue your work for the Glory of the Six and the safety of Aquila.
Kheta-Semet.
