Regents of Hashan,

I thought I would add my voice to the clamor, requesting for my access to the Wellspring to be restored. I am sure you will, naturally, have questions for me. Yes, I am an enemy of Hashan. No, I have not taken any steps to resolve that. Nor am I likely to. However, I think that there are several positives that may be overlooked in what seems like a straightforward situation.

So far as I am aware, I have never been severed from the Wellspring. Additionally, I have not been an Alchemist at all in roughly a century. And finally, I have no interest in picking it up at all, let alone wielding Sublimation.

I believe that with these aforementioned reasons, it would be easy enough to grant my request- indeed nothing would need to be done at all. Additionally, you would be able to add it to a list of accomplishments and deeds done during your reign- without needing to actually work- something that is fundamental to leadership. After all, 'reviewed Wellspring applications' sounds far more difficult if the answers aren't just a blanket 'no'.

I hope that you will give my request due consideration with all of the factors expressed herein, and I thank you for your consideration.
