Agreed, we are. 9,000 gold, for RA prisoner WH, we trade.

UN-BL

My message, did you get?

DW-UN

Mysterious Yoda,

We are confirmed, thank you!

Best,

Would you be ok with me passing two artifacts back to you of equal status to the One ring? That way you can keep the other artifacts and I will not need to re-barrow the ring.

Let me know if you need something destroyed. I also have multiple demon assassins and scandals available. Best to give me options if such time as something is needed to be done to force more defensive orders. I do not believe anyone can match my number of nukes with counter nukes at this time.

[HeadHoncho]

DW-WI

Dread Lord,

We may be open to this, I think it would depend partly on the nature of the artifacts. It does make sense on an efficiency level to have the Ring remain with you, although it does have some utility to me as well, especially in the goal of boosting our main wizard to a point of actual usefulness. But as always, we are flexible with our Allies!

As for a target, I am engaged with the Rangers, obviously, and I am none too friendly with the Black Dragons, who have engaged in childish insults toward me since the start of the current struggle. If you wanted to join the Red Dragons and myself against the pair of them (with the Underworld likely being a free agent who could be hired by either side), we would be open to that. This would have the added benefit of containing the first Kingdom to obtain a second region.

All of this is merely brainstorming, and again, we are flexible.

Best,
Grundun

Against you, not one single action, taken have I. Only questions asking, and patiently waiting. Now attacking me, you are? Treat this way, your allies, do you?

UN-DW

Your Prince, rescued, have I. Agents 19, 16, 16, 10 in range. For trade, how much, let me know.

UN-RD/DW

If BL, silent remains, and attacking continues, half price against him and RA, all agents are.

I have taken no single action against you either.  In fact, I have provided a town and 3000 gold as a standing order every turn.  Last turn you moved emissaries into my Runnimede holdings after inquiring about relinquishing control of the region to you.  I merely moved to visit your pcs in case you elected to rebel my pcs.

Let us formalize our alliance - as you had with the GN?  Since the only pcs I own are those you allowed the GN to control I suggest that I maintain what I have conquered from the GN and you and I agree to a game-long alliance?  Thoughts?

Mysterious Yoda,

Thank you for the welcome news that you have rescued our Prince! We will plan and budget for this month and get back to you as to possible hires. We may also take you up on your "no outbidding" early kidnap offer, especially if "priority" means that by committing and paying first, we would get first opportunity to use your best agent on any given month that we choose, even if others "speak up" later that month, so to speak.

I've also heard rumors that the Black Dragons are moving against you, and are attempting to convince you to accept a humiliating deal. How fair and generous of him, to propose that he should have control over two regions to your zero, and to demand agent immunity when you have steadfastly refused to grant this in the past!

I know you're a new ruler, but you've proven yourself to be a savvy one, and so I urge you to reject his efforts to bully and take advantage of you. Should it come to blows between you and the Black Dragons, rest assured that you would have the full support of your best customer, the Dwarves, in any such conflict.

Warmly,
Grundun, Chief Diplomat for the Dwarves

UN-DW

Correct, you are, on priority. And understand, we do, your points, but taking offense, we do not do.

UN-GN
Immunity to agents, I cannot give.  Special relationship with you, though I can have, since the region, we do share. If an invasion we see, each other we can help, with military, politics and magic.

UN-BL

With GN, the deal above, was made. And a point, DW does have, with two regions, to zero. Suggest you take back, your town in Southern Sands, but to me, a town and village, in Runnimede. And one village more, if for control, it is needed. And if invasion, we see, in Runnimede, each other we can help, with military, politics and magic. But immunity to agents, free use of agents, I cannot give. What say you?

UN-BL

Suggest you take back, your town in Southern Sands, but to me, a town and village, in Runnimede. And one village more, if for control, it is needed.

To Secretive One:

Our grand council met this morning to contemplate the world as it stands and we noticed an inequity. The folks of Torvale have no leadership. That is frightening. From our mathematicians, we have figured that with one additional town, the wise and benevolent High Elves would be able to bring peace and prosperity to Torvale. As such, we would like to purchase/trade your town in the water in Torvale. I can offer you a town in Oakendell, or I can simply send you enough gold to cover the production of that town for several turns. Please advise of your thoughts in this matter.

EL - DE

Per our missive to the UN, we are desirous of purchasing a town from you in Torvale, recognizing our NAP and the hard work you put into eliminating the AN (though we were much enamored of their wisdom in ages past). As it stands, we actually had some holdings in the region also and find ourselves very close to being able to bring a benevolent ruler-ship to the region. Please advise as to your thoughts in this matter.

Tremendous Majesty,

Can you please confirm we are trading back the two artifacts this month for the minimum 10,000 gold each?

Also, if you happen to have any information (groups, emissaries) on the Rangers, that would be helpful.

Finally, if you could let me know what population centers in Synisvania that you own, that would also be very helpful, as I could make sure to avoid them.

Best,
Grundun
