Perhaps your memory has already began to fail you, Monsieur Steiner. - Pierre replied - Quite surprising at your age, but let me remind you that we aren't the Gallic Royals, we are those, who have fought them, often alongside your own, although for a few decades longer. Whatever they've done is the responsibility and the burden of the Enclave now. If there's anything about the document causing apprehension, it's the lack of quality and organisation, but I'm willing to help you out on those, should you require. - he finished with a brief sneer before turning to the Maltese.
A mere oral, non-binding gentleman's agreement doesn't sound like anything to be shy about, n'est pas, Consul Escudero ? Although they are rarely referred to as treaties either, but I digress. I do, however, remember the mention of a secret section, making me quite curious about it. The wars have ended, and we all are here now to discuss how to proceed within the region, so why don't you tell us a bit more about your earlier thoughts shared between Malta and Bretonia ? Perhaps we could find some useful, clever ideas among them, which we could solidify between ourselves in a more definitive manner than an oral agreement. Perhaps with an actual treaty. What do you think ? - even the mocked curiosity couldn't perfectly hide that the "useful" and "clever" parts were sarcasm, as he did rarely expect such from outcasts. It wasn't displayed, but it is still obvious to those, who are familiar with the relations of The Council towards Malta, and at least suspected by those, who are familiar with the general attitude of a gaul.
