Respected and admired Highness Xerxes,
I am respectfully writing you this letter as I have several concerns about your upcoming campaign against the Greek polis. Your majesty are eager to revenge the defat of your father, Darius hence reinstating the honor of your family whilst you punish the Greek insolence. Before starting such epic campaign, I respectfully suggest you to highly consider the advice of queen Artimisia. She is of Greek ancestry and she has a deep knowledge on her fellowmen. I do not doubt of your wisedom as warlord, however I would advise you to restrain if necessary although you see your army marches relentless. Please take care of a Greek counterattack and please cut any possibility of aid they might receive from the sea.
Sincerely yours, Your Highness.
