O Ma'd, I have heard that you are a man of great strength, and that you have been able to conquer the Abyssinians. I have also heard that you have been able to defeat the armies of the Romans. I am writing to you today to ask for your help. I am in need of your assistance in my fight against the infidels. I have been fighting them for many years, and I have been able to defeat them in many battles. However, they are still a formidable enemy, and I am in need of your help to defeat them once and for all. I have heard that you are a wise and just ruler, and that you are a man of great courage. I am confident that you will be able to help me in my fight against the infidels. I am also confident that you will be able to help me to establish peace and justice in my land.
