Buen día.

I have no jodido clue what distant green planeta you bloody tree hugging culeros care mucho about, but we've got a fucking war to fight. Now listen here, payasos, I have a proposition for you. The Black Sails will station a battlegroup at Torshavn and you will provide our guild with 2 "Caliburn" Destroyers and 4 "Galatine" Gunboats. In return, we shall cover your culos from any force that threatens you in Bretonia.

Let me be very clear on this matter, cabron, this can only end in one way, the Black Sails' way. In case you manage to find any trace of your long gone cojones, keep them under a tight leash, or I will personally deprive you of them and hang them in one of our new Galatine's cockpit as a reminder of your foolishness to oppose the Black Sails.

Hello.

Best we can do is discounted drinks. 5% off, on my tab. But remember, don't drink and fly. The ice outside is quite dense.

Buen día, Corsair,

I’ll spare you the pleasantries, as it seems your 'proposal' is more of an ultimatum dressed in brass and leather. But I’ll indulge you for a moment.

First off, your offer is noted, but let’s get something clear: the Black Sails’ way is not our way. If you think we’re going to kowtow to your threats and dirty business like others might, you’re sorely mistaken. You want destroyers and gunboats? How quaint.
Maybe you should focus on repairing the wreckage you leave behind before you start asking for new toys.

Ah, now you’ve gone and reminded me of the Panther bombers we gave your people. Those sleek, formidable machines that were supposed to strike terror across the stars. Shame, really... such potential, now nothing more than a pile of metal.

You see, Corsair, while you’re busy throwing your weight around and demanding destroyers and gunboats, the fact is, your Brotherhood hasn’t even bothered to update the Panther bombers we already gave you years ago. Those beautiful ships have been left to rust away in some forgotten corner of Crete: not because of a lack of resources, but because your people neglected the simplest of tasks: a software update.

It’s almost comical, really. All that firepower, all that potential… and you can’t even keep your ships in working order. It’s the epitome of short sightedness. You’ve got a wing of state of the art Panthers just wasting away, while you’re busy squabbling over the scraps of the galaxy. Perhaps you’d be better off starting with the basics: updating your software, fixing your ships, and maybe, just maybe, putting that firepower to good use before it becomes nothing but a relic of failed ambition.

Your message Mr. Ortega is an absolute mockery of us Gaians. Additionally, members of the Gaians) movement remember this year's attack by Black Sails members on our transport ships in Dublin carrying the gold we needed. Without asking from where or why. Recognizing that if we have gold there, we got it from your enemies. I would like to point out that we Gaians) have correct relations with many parties in Sirius, including Deterrence and Brotherhood. Hence, we are very surprised by your insulting ultimatum to us. First and foremost we care about Nature and Mother Gaia, towards many we are neutral, even if they among themselves are hostile. Because I don't know if your little brain, poisoned by the nicotine you smoke during your transmission, realizes that it's worth having a neutral link sometimes even towards enemies. I'm also curious if the Elders leading the Corsair Empire realize that you are planning an attack on historical allies who still maintain positive relations with your country's two biggest powers.

As for ships, you won't get them, and as for access for your militias aboard Torshavn Space Port, you won't get a warm welcome, but we also won't shoot you first.

Without respect

Archcaptain Lilianne Daphne Rose

All right, listen up you pequeñas mierdas. I confess that I am struck by your coordinated response towards the Black Sails. Now that we've all gathered, sit back and take notes.

Ever since the Black Sails have returned to active duty within Bretonia and the Omegas, we've been on the watch on all Gaian movements in and around our area of operations, and we're nothing less but disappointed of your amante de las cabras kin, or movement, or whatever you consider yourself. Like some of the major Corsair factions, the Gaians failed entirely to capitalize on the weakness of Bretonia and became lenient. Even more, you have aspirations to make up a name for yourselves in the shipping sector! Nowadays, the only ones in which you strike fear is Bowex, as they're afraid you'll become their competitor. Grand mierda, cabrons.

Now, not that we care about your endeavors, but parts of it go against our interests in the region. You see, doing business with the Mollys has consequences on our war effort, and we can't let that continue, not like this, at least. A price must be paid. Our initial terms were stated in the previous transmission, we can continue from there, and be very much aware you can't climb any tree to avoid this, as we'll cut it down with you in it, and after bashing your skulls to the hard ground maybe you will wake up to reality and realize in what misery you live.

How can you fools complain about the attack on your convoy? Next time be sure not to scrap your all-mighty Panthers for shipping vessels, and such events will belong to a past age. It's yet another proof of your leniency that we can no longer tolerate. Have no doubts that any further transports heading towards Molly installations will be met with devastating wrath.
You mentioned the words historical allies, but I assume the mushrooms you eat hazed your mind. As of late we haven't seen anything beneficial coming from the Gaians to the Corsair Empire, hence the reason for our conversations. The Black Sails are committed to rekindle the Corsair-Gaian relations, one way or another.

It is for the reason, the Black Sails consider of an utmost importance to send a delegation to Torshavn to make a proper introduction of our guild. Once the icebreaker is concluded, we can revise the meaning of our historical alliance.
