Chief Hakoda,
I'm sorry to hear of your loss of your wife. She was a dear person in the heart of many. I lost my husband not very long ago as well. It is hard to raise two young ones but you are strong and can do it. But that is not the reason for my letter.
I was hoping that if it would be alright if we could talk things out. The Fire Nation is becoming restless and I know that there is chaos ensuing in the Northern Water Tribe. It won't be long before it spreads to the Southern Water Tribe. If you are interested in a proposition please write me back.
Sincerely,
Fire Lady Ursa

Fire Lady Ursa,
Thank you for your condolences. You and your family have mine as well.
I too have heard of much dismemberment among the other nations. And you have my curiosity. What do you suggest?
Sincerely,
Chief Hakoda

Chief Hakoda,
From what I know you have a daughter. She is a young age as is my Zuko who is seven. I was wondering if you would be up for the proposition of a betrothal between my son and your daughter. It could merge two rival countries and show that we both, though very opposite, can work together to make things better.
My home is open to you every summer until your daughter becomes of age at 16. Let our children get to know each other and hopefully fall in love that way the transition is not so strange.
Summer is not very far from now another two months. We hope to see you soon.

Lady Ursa,
I agree with you, it is a very good idea. I'm not happy about giving my daughter no choice, but what must be done must be done. We will see you on the next fire nation ship.
