Jose listened to Senor Franks, and then to Miguel's response. 'I believe that Miguel speaks for all of us Elders when he says we are not here to treat with the Omicroners about anything. We are here to talk solely about the situation relating to FP9 and what can be done to ensure the security of the Corsair Empire.'
Jose then continues 'Senor Franks, since you have stated that you are here to treat on behalf of the Omicroners I see no purpose to your continued presence at this meeting, and would therefore suggest you go and polish your ship or do something else that might actually be considered useful, so that the rest of us can actually get on with doing that which we came here for without your interference.'
Picking up the nearest open rum bottle Jose refilled his glass, and placed the bottle back on the table. Turning his head toward Silvan he says 'I believe that Silvan is able to speak for the residents of FP9', glancing toward Franks he continues, 'but I also believe that there is a significant amount of pressure being applied by some other group who have an entirely different agenda'.
