Most honorable Emperor, I write to you this day with grief and hope
in the same time. It saddens me that Kusari and Gas Miner's Guild
cannot reach an decision that will benefit both sides and thus continue
to prosper together as neighbors that we have been for a while now.

When I was ready to take over Kishiro, I expected a challenge, and
at times I found doubting myself but as our proverb says
"nanakorobi yaoki", I preserved. This time it is up to us all,
to preserve yet again and try to reach an agreement with
Gas Miner's Guild representatives.

That is why I have decided to invite you and three other
colleagues of mine, your advisors to join me in my home* to
deal with this situation for good. Arming ourselves with patience
and determination will surely bring us fruit, as it has brought us
fruit every time so far.

I have sent an similar missive to Gas Miner's Guild and I'm hoping
for a response. I will keep both sides informed, but it is time
to actually meet face in face and discuss this as things were discussed
generations before.

Konnichiwa Gas Miners Guild. I know your council holds more
than few members and in my short time as Kishiro Technologies
CEO I have met some of them; Guild Master Raikoke I greet you,
Guildmaster Nozaki Ichimoto konnichiwa, and rest of the guld
masters that I haven't had the pleasure to meet, I invite you,
as soon as you can to join me in the Negotiations of the matters
at hand with Emperor Jien Kogen and his Council in my home* in Honshu.
Things were said, discussions got heated and passionate, but
we shouldn't let our passion cloud our eyes and make us
blind to what is ahead.

My lovely garden on 54th floor does just that. As I step inside,
all the stress from the daily work and all the grief that struck me,
whether from my friends or my coworkers is simply stripped from me.
With my vision unclouded I see there is only one way to go with our
unresolved issues, and that is forward, in prosperity as well as unity.
I hope that you will respond to my invitation soon and that the negotiations
can begin, so things can, as Emperor himself said - be resolved.

//nanakorobi yaoki - the translation i found is "the key is in perseverance"
//the actual roleplay of the meeting (if it happens) will be handled in another part of the forum. But this is a good place to develop the actual roleplay until that point (if it happens)

The motion to move to negotiations in the current status has failed in a vote in the Executive Board.

For the Guild to form a mutual agreement with Kusari, it will be necessary for Kishiro to request to the Imperial Throne the relinquishment of its usurped role as the sole authorized non-GMG possessor of GMG Fuels within the Honshu system. We hope that Mister Matsuo will do what is best for all in this situation.

Until this proposal to the Government is submitted, deliberations on terms of a treaty for proposal to Kusari will be discussed within the confinement of the Gas Miners Guild Executive Board.

Most Honorable Emperor, I bring the update of the situation.
It seems GMG is ready to sit at the table when
Kishiro shows a sign of good faith and appeals to Your Highness
to temporary allow passage of Plutonium and Hfuel trough
Honshu for all the GMG's contractors.

As Kishiro Technologies has already mentioned,
we are very eager to see an treaty finalized between
GMG and Kusari, but we are also ready to do a favor
to Rheinland's corporation RepEx and Zoners to pass
trough Honshu (temporary) and exit to Sigmas until the
Gate from Okinawa to Sigmas is constructed.
However laws are not toys, and placing an law in action
and then suspending it will make Kusari look like a joke.

This should be discussed carefully before any decisions
are made.

Konnichiwa Hokani-san,

Unfortunately, I have found that this is a common tactic from the GMG in their relations with our Government. They prompt us to make concession after concession, just to bring them to the negotiating table, where they stall the proceedings and walk away. Kusari law is not something to be taken lightly, and as a sovereign nation, the GMG, currently has more rights in Kusari then any other group of outsiders. Yet that is not enough for them. They make demand after demand, just to talk with our Government, the Government of the territory that they decided, they should have rights in, that they could make contracts with Gaijin to cross Kusari, without any word to the Kusari government. Well that is at an end, if the GMG and their Gaijin trading partners want to have the Kusari government consider their interests in Kusari, it is time for them to start treating the Kusari Government as someone they need something from. Instead the GMG seem to think they can bully the Kusari Government into doing what they want. This will not happen. I am a 100 percent supporter of a treaty with the GMG, but we will not be forced to compromise our laws, so that the GMG can walk out on talks once again.

Understood Emperor. Would you like me to
personally transfer them the message or
will His Highness and council voice on their own?

Konnichiwa again board of directors.
After a talk with the Council the Emperor
sent me a message I feel answers it all.

I will await for your response, although it could be a good time
to send a message directly to Emperor and the Council,
or to come to the agreement meeting after all.
