The note is written with elegant penmanship with many artistic swirls and curves to the lettering. The letter itself is sealed with pale blue ribbon and the seal of the Sandoval house although upon closer inspection one can see a faint 'M' in the hardened wax.
With the letter wrapped very carefully in a wide wooden crate is a painting that is 24 inches by 36 with a dark brown wooden frame. The painting appears to be vibrant landscape of rolling hills of green and gold contrasting against the blue sky and white puffy clouds. The imagery borders in between that of realism and the surrealistic dreamlike memory. In the lower right hand corner the signature of 'Maricela Sandoval' is clearly signed notating who the artist is.

To Lord Reed Gardiner Duke of Shelbourne,
Greetings to your and your family. I hope the summer is fairing well for all of you, and that you are able to enjoy these lovely days.
I must apologize for the impulsive nature of this gift, but an artist's inspiration does strike at the strangest of times. I am currently journeying with my family towards the capital in light of the summons, and am fortunate to have taken a more scenic route. In my journey much of the natural beauty of Archades has deeply inspired me, but oddly enough it brought back memories of my visit to Shelbourne. Since seeing your lands with my own eyes I have been enthralled by it's beauty, and that memory has never left me. Such sweet memories can truly be so fleeting, so I decided to capture it forever on canvas.
I had intended to keep this painting, but after some deliberation I have decided to send it to your family as a gift of my appreciation. Thank you for providing me with such inspirational scenery in my past travels. Shelbourne is truly a blessing to the entire kingdom.
Sincerely,
Lady Maricela Sandoval
