[Ellis also gets a reply. The delay on his is half because Matthias has to copy most of it from the reply that he sends to Isaac (which takes a long time to compose as he is trying desperately hard to get it perfect), and half because after he's written it, Matthias spends a long time trying to decide if he's meant to reply to this to confirm that he received it. Do people do that? He hasn't done that. Who does he ask?
Eventually, though, he writes out a reply:]
Warden Ellis,
Your errand and, your Location, were noted in the Records of the Forces Division and, were Reported to Commander Flint. Travel Safeley.

[Well-wishes aren't professional. Are they? Doesn't every letter get closed with something polite? He's overthinking this. Matthias seals the letter, sends it away, and tries to forget that it exists.]
