Ave and good fortune upon you, denizens of Dublin.

After a Legatus of the Classis Aetheria came to me with a report from his son, I could not help but express interest in your people. From what I have heard, you have simply been defending your homes with fervor and conviction, and with limited resources, have thus far been able to repel a far greater force.

I like that. Here in the Imperium, we respect valor and fighting prowess, so to become acquainted with a people such as yours may prove to bear fruit for both of us in the future. Therefore, I propose these terms to you as a basis for future relations.

1. Free roam and safe harbor is to be granted for all Fillii ships and personnel within the Dublin system.
2. Classis Aetheria forces will assist Mollys against hostile Corsair incursions.
3. Both factions shall begin exchanging technology and items of interest in a mutually beneficial sharing of knowledge.
4. Approved delegations and other groups of Molly affiliation may visit Fillii space, provided any rules set for each visit are obeyed. Note: This will be the first time in history that a Sirian would enter Fillii space.

According to our source, these terms should be agreeable enough to you all. If not, simply send a transmission on this frequency with your proposal. Of course, hopefully it will not be needed.

Vale, and may the gods smile upon your day.
C. Flavius Aquila Caesar, Imperator of the Mars Fillii

Greetings,

I must say it is a strange tale that your "legatus" told me. Bein' lost in ta void beyond Sirius, only now t' return. Must be a shock t' see everyone much more advanced an' civilized. Didn't think us barbarians were capable of such, were ya lad?

Regardless, your man showed skill aboard such a cheaply made snubcraft. Skills I wouldn't mind seein' again against our enemies. We'll see what ta future brings though.

As t' your proposal, I would have t' make some edits. I have attached ta modified proposal below:

1. Free roam and safe harbor is to be granted for all Fillii ships and personnel within the Dublin system.
-Safe harbor granted should you come under attack from Corsairs or Bretonian military/police vessels ONLY. Any other hostilities you face will not be tolerated near Arranmore. Free roam is granted with the exception of 15k from the Londonderry jumphole.
2. Classis Aetheria forces will assist Mollys against hostile Corsair incursions.
-Agreed.
3. Both factions shall begin exchanging technology and items of interest in a mutually beneficial sharing of knowledge.
-Agreed, but you will not be granted full disclosure over all our technology. What we deem worth trade in comparison to your weapons and technology will be brought forward.
4. Approved delegations and other groups of Molly affiliation may visit Fillii space, provided any rules set for each visit are obeyed. Note: This will be the first time in history that a Sirian would enter Fillii space.
-Agreed, though I do not see much reason in visitin' your space.

If ya agree t' ta proposal I outlined, then I believe we have a deal lad. I expect samples of your weapons an' technology at Arranmore within ta week. Until then, welcome back t' Sirius I guess is warranted...
