Can it be transmitted here or do you need to meet in person?

At this point, it would raise just as much suspicion for me to leave as if anyone managed to undo the wards on my message.

Did Ryuk happen to share Mazane Enma's true name with you?

Then you'll believe me when I tell you Makoto Shishioh is mad with lust for power and revenge.

He's planning to invade Eito and seize the throne directly, instead of playing for the Emperor's favor. All this is going to do is get us all killed, along with huge numbers of my countrymen. Unfortunately, Enma's other generals are either insanely loyal, cowards, or filled with bloodlust, and I can't possibly face Shishioh on my own. Even going to the Emperor directly would see me executed by Shishioh before he could be crushed. As such, I have to keep my mask on, so to speak.

You, however, have contacts and nothing to gain by beraying me to Shishioh. Even with Figaro's army in disarray at the moment, you can put the word out that destroying the mad dead general would be a great benefit to all Eisengoku, and I can make sure to leave a flaw in our defemses that civic-minded people could exploit.
