Telegram

When a telegraph is received it is decoded and written down, these documents are called telegrams. The telegram is written or typed onto blue paper the paper is light enough that black text can be seen. They are also sealed with yellow sealing wax. The paper is dyed from its original parchment brown to blue by using woad.   These messages are delivered by messenger to their recipient. If the recipient wants to make a reply they will have to go to City Hall to do this.   Most of the messages that are sent are of a trade or governmental nature and require a cypher wheel to encrypt them further. Despite this people who living in different cities can send telegraph messages to each other. These messages cost 30 New Sovereigns each.   Other forms of communication are messages that are sent by Messenger. These can be oral or written down, other communication can include good old snail mail.
