It has been a while since we have spoken, and in that time the Order has stayed away from Baffin. But with the instability of their Admiral, they may try something in the future.

On that note, the Temporary Autonomous Zoners would like to formalize proper diplomatic relations with the Core, and possibly some sort of trade pact, to complement the existing Contract between our groups.

Perhaps some sort of Pact of Friendship or something like that. I'm not particularly versed in what sort of agreements would apply, that's more Gypsie Skripto's job, but i'm sure there is something that can be negotiated.

I look forward with interest to your response.

Skarsi Wyrdmake,

The idea of a trade pact sounds like a good idea. If there is anything The Core would need, it would most certainly be supplies. Ships and equipment also come in quite handy within the Edgeworlds, however I don't think that's the sort of thing you'd be willing to supply. What sort of commodities could the TAZ export to The Core?

A 'Pact of Friendship' sounds suitable. We'll simply keep doing what we were doing before and keeping an eye on Order movements within Baffin.

I await your response.

-E. Nodtviet
Guildmaster, The Core

Well, i'm sure we could acquire just about anything given some time. Is there anything you require specifically?

Ships and Equipment. Contrary to your statement, Ships and equipment trade could be a possibility. Our distant and unpleasant cousins, the Phoenix group, most likely supply the order with Zoner technology so it would seem fair to us to offer technology to the Core. All we would ask in return in is equivalent use of your technology. I would also like to examine one of your "Thresher" class destroyers, but that is more of a personal whim.

Excellent news for the Pact of Friendship. Would you prefer to draft the document? if not, I can have Gypsie Skripto, my fellow pope, work on one.
