In Regards to Your Most Recent Letter

Greatest and Most Dignified Country of England,

I am writing to you not only on behalf of the Earl Phantomhive, but myself as well. I wish to extend my apologies for what happened when the Earl and I fetched you from your broom closet. We certainly had no intention of mocking you and we understand many people become emotional when they are under extreme amounts of stress. We imagine misplacing a coat suitable for going outdoors in predatory weather only aggravated your personal condition.

Now I will write directly: I understand the importance of not ruining your best clothes. I dislike ruining mine as well, though I am not certain I would have taken it so harshly. However, I also understand it is not uncommon for the eyes to become wet without one noticing and the body to tremble against its will when that someone is burdened with worries about something very important, such as looking after of those who were at one time a part of them. It must have been a dreadful experience for you. Please accept my deepest sympathies for the loss of your coat.

The Earl Phantomhive would like to request the pleasure of your company at his residence in Desai on Friday, July twenty-fourth for dinner at seven o'clock in order to demonstrate his most sincere apologies regarding the grave error I made, which was believing I was saving your life. I am truly embarrassed by my folly.

If this date is not acceptable, we will work to accommodate your wishes. Please take some time to consider and let us know your decision by twelve o'clock in the morning on July twenty-fourth.

Thank you very much for reading. Once more, I am sorry for the inconvenience I caused you.

May I always live to serve you and Her Majesty's crown,

Sebastian Michaelis
                                                                Loyal Servant of Phantomhive
