Dealing with Condolence Letters

Condolence letters have been flooding in from across the kingdom. Many of them are sincere, many of them are self-serving, and far too many of them are expecting some sort of response. Mother’s death has made me busy enough as it is. Proofs of wisdom I could have pushed back for years need to be completed as soon as possible and my responsibility over the estate has increased. To save what little freetime remains to me, I assigned the task of sorting the letters to Eliza.

“Your Highness,” of course she protested, “Such a task is beyond my qualification.”

“Eliza, if such a task is beyond your qualification, then I’m afraid there is no one among the estate’s staff qualified enough to handle such a task.” Always aware of when to quit her objections, she wore her disappointment upon her face and resigned herself to the task. I can only hope for her eventual forgiveness.
