Most respected Son of Castamir:
Even to acknowledge or write this response to your letter may be considered an act of treason and we hope that fact does not pass unnoticed to thee.
Concerning your idea as explained in your letter, we consider it to be ill timed and belonging to the realm of dreams. As you surely know even in exile, there is a war coming soon and the Lidless Eye has plans for us, a new fleet is being keeled as we write. Word is we will sail against Gondor, as it has always been, so you better forget about this idea of yours of sailing far north.
Though, you have stated some interesting facts worthy to take into consideration, we will talk and take council with some of the other High Captains and ponder about it.
We are sending to you our faithful servant Fuynur with further advice.
Pray be safe and wait further communication.
