Suggestions on In-Game Handling

Remember that this is the middle ages. Among other things, communications were often slow and unreliable. That is your main tool to deal with "inactivity" in-game, without causing any problems, offending anyone, or getting into trouble with the Inalienable Rights.

• The messenger with your letter was delayed, assaulted by bandits and wounded, killed in a road accident or made off with his payment.

• The messenger was ok, but the message was not, it was rained on, the paper crumbled or the ink had not dried enough. The messenger had to make the trip twice, which of course took additional time.
• This being the middle ages, people were ill more often. The "inactive" character simply had a cough or something.
• His scribe was out of ink.
