Kin of the Heartwood,

You have something that belongs to us. We want it back.

We will allow one month to facilitate the exodus of our lost property, after which we will make ready to retrieve it ourselves. By force, if necessary.

There will be no further negotiations or courtesies extended.

Signed,

Axil, Alpha Headhunter of the Raven

Penned by my hand on the 21st of Sarapin, in the year 862 AF.
