It is with the heaviest of hearts that I announce today that I will not continue my campaign for Imperial Premier. My family told me from the start that it was foolish to think that I could run for such a position with no experience and no history of service. Nevertheless, I proceeded onward and received support from my nephew and from the Bellflower Party. Today, I prove my family right and brought dishonour to those who backed me.
If there was anyone who supported me, I apologize to you. And if you care to send me your correspondence, I will apologize to you personally in reply. If you are asking why, and I understand if you are not, it is that something has been weighing on me since the start of my campaign. I felt the utmost respect for those who supported me, and felt that I had done little of my own to support the Empire that I thought myself worthy to lead. It is for that reason that I withdraw from the race, and leave it to those who have served. I will find a more appropriate way to support the Empire. And perhaps one day I will consider myself worthy to run again for Imperial Premier. Until then, may the Empress smile upon you all.
With my deepest regrets,
Kinoshita Fusako
