The messanger who brought it then speaks
I come before you today to formally request a detachment of troops from the royal army to the attached service of Strategeos Mysiakes to eradicate the rebel's led by Byzantinosm whom you can see by the middle bridge, just south of the mountains on this map.
By our calculations, they could arrive join with my lord Mysiakes in one season, assuring the scurge on trade in the region would be wiped out before the next year.
My lord Mysiakes also requests that if a detachment is sent, it be made up of two units archers, and two units infantry.
He also asks that I inform you, pre-empting any questions, that Arbela's garrison is too small to lend troops, and though Karkathiokerta does have a larger garrison, moving troops out of it would lead to riots at its current rate of tax.
