Arigatogozaimashita,

I too am grateful for the patience you have given us in kind, our talks have indeed been most auspicious.

Moushi wake arimasen deshita. You should not feel remorseful, I can tell you believe deeply in your cause and are willing to lay your life on the line in the process. This is indeed an honourable approach to have and one we Dragons take very seriously, if our relations were to break down I am fully prepared to accept my own failings and commit seppuku, for I will have not only failed my Daimyo and the Shogun himself, but all Dragons and the people of Kusari. For this, I would be eternally honoured if you would be my kaishakunin.

As always, you are welcome within our space. Note that we do not desire to outright ban you, but instead we encourage this conflict to remain outside of it. Naturally, you can consider Chugoku a safe haven and we shall do everything in our power to ensure it remains so. I shall ultimately leave the decision of whether or not you desire to continue to support our efforts over Tomioka, I trust in your abilities to choose your battles wisely and to know your purpose when visiting that system. At this moment in time, we lack the infrastrure capable of redirecting logistics away from Tomioka itself, however we shall look into implementing measures that could avert such a problem.

If necessary, I would urge you to contact the Blood Dragons whenever you aim to deliver cargo enmasse to Tomioka, as then we can provide the appropiate escorts in order to deter any conflict. We shall not allow anything to prevent our war effort, regardless of who or what they may be, I hope you understand my meaning here.

Of all treasures the Dragon seeks, perhaps the Golden Chrysanthemum is the most precious of all.

Long live the Dragons.

Arigatogozaimasu,
Gotō Daichi
Nakai Clan Honour Guard
