The King sits at his mahogany desk, writing a letter to Varan, King of the Northern Jungle. When he is finished he takes the letter and reads it to him self. It reads-

To, Varan Lord of the Jungle-

''As you know, Umbar is a mighty kingdom that lies extremely close to yours. In the past, The Sea-Kings of Umbar and the Lords of Harad have maintained a relationship of friendship and alliance. I would like to continue that alliance. Our kingdoms, you see, have much to offer each other. Umbar has a mighty navy, scientific advancements, riches from its colonies and an excellent harbor. Your lordship has many forts in the jungle and an army. Umbar, though proficient in naval combat, is somewhat lacking when it comes to land forces. You could provide us that. Also, your kingdom has many exotic flora and fauna that interest us greatly. Even though your kingdom is mighty, you are lacking in one thing- a good ocean port. Umbar has a might ocean port that could setrve your lordship. What I think will interest you most, is that my kingdom is in the precess of procuring one of the most valuable commodities in Middle-Earth : Mithril. We are in the process of extracting and trading mithril, should you accept this offer, your lordship could have a constant flow of mithril coming to the jungle. Umbar and your kingdom would also be united by another goal- conquest. Umbar would provide your lordship a massive navy and you could provide us with an army. Note, however that an alliance with Umbar will mean that you will have to renounce your deal with King Umayr. I know you have promised a trade agreement with him, but  what is the wealth of fish, jade and gold compared to mithril? I certainly hope you consider this offer seriously and I also hope that on Umbar and The Jungle of Harad will be joined by a nigh inseperable bond.''

-Sincerely

Tar-Veantur I, Sea King of Umbar, Lord of Celebnore, Ruler of Assosiated Colonies.

Tar-Veantur folded the letter and impressed the seal of the High king of Umbar on it. "Hyarnuro, deliver this to Varan in the Northern Jungle."
