A letter arrives in Bahkchisaray from Al Qahirah,
"Blessed by God, Khan of the Crimea,
It is with the most sincerest regret that I write to you today. Though the sun shines beautifully in Al Qahirah, in all our hearts there is a great shadow. Our Sultan, God Bless Him, has fallen seriously ill. The greatest healers from throughout the world have been assembled and we may only hope for the best.
It is with such tidings and the horrible intrigues that can take place during such times that I feel we must withdraw from the war against the Lithuanian barbarians. However we shall not leave this righteous cause without giving final aid. I wish to arrange the transfer of the lands of Kaffa to your most glorious Khanate. This territory is much too far for effective administration, especially in a time such as this. We would also wish to grant to your command a portion of our army currently fighting in this conflict. In return all that we ask are all the tarriff proceeds collected from the port for a term of 10 years to be delivered to our sultanate. Naturally regular shipments of grain needed to feed the armies of both yours and the Golden Khanate shall continue to be sent for the duration of the conflict.
Please reply soon, for only so much longer can we safely keep our army away that is so desperately needed in Egypt.
Ahmed Abu Mazar - Vizier"
