Elders of the Corsair Empire, there is something we want from you. And there is something you may want from us as well. Thus, we shall meet. Weapons will be hot and ready, if our transaction is to go wrong. If you want what we have, the Outcast Nation is willing to exchange. Now, it is simply a matter of when and where. A dark corner of space, perhaps?

So you want something from our people.
Do you take responsibility for the countless lives lost during the many invasions?
You rather hide behind some Council instead of sharing your names....
I see no reason to help any of you if you do not repay the damage inflicted on our great nation.
This is my demand to you señores:
All of you will stand on that table, pull down your throwsers ,
put your heads between your legs and kiss your own culo's
since that is what you seem to enjoy mostly.
If you expect a serious dialogue between our people,
adress the Council on a serious tone , and try harder.
Adios.

Corsair LawsCorsair Court Our forces combined, no-one shall stand before us. Our enemies shall be burnt and cast to the wind, our troops marching forward over their mangled corpses. True we stand alone, with wolves circling, but our isolation lends us our strength, for we are one and they are divided.
The days of Darkness are no longer, for we are the Corsairs and we are fear incarnate! Viva los Corsairs, the Empire shall rise!
The blood of the Hispania runs in our veins. The blood of our enemies shall wet our hands.

Lives are, were, and will be lost on both sides, and the sight of your primitive ships is not uncommon in the Maltese skies so please don't play the martyrs. But I digress, we can stand here and argue who's got the better booze and the longest dreadnought for all eternity, as we have done in the past 7 centuries, or you can swallow your pride and recognize that politics is indeed the art of kissing arses, only that sometimes the act is mutual.

Senors,
I have absolutely no idea where it is that you practice your politics but you may rest assured that no "arse kissing" takes place on this side of Sirius.
I'm also not in the least bit interested in your assertions that you have the longest battleship or the most potent alcoholic beverages.
I am, however, interested in knowing what it is that you think we might possibly want.
In fact, I am so intrigued by this issue that I might, under very specific and controlled circumstances, be prepared to meet with you or your representatives to find out.
As the saying goes "Talk is cheap"...... and I have better things to do, not least of which is plotting your kinds total eradication. So either put up or shut up and stop bothering us.

Alright, let me put it differently. It's clear this is not working out, so let me try to elaborate. We've been fighting for the past 7 centuries, without any real talk between our people, yet mindless slaughter of millions upon millions both on our and your side. I am well aware that a few hours or days aren't going to solve centuries of rivalry so deeply encoded in our being that it defines who we are, but we can at least try and justify all that killing. And with all the wishful thinking on my side I secretly hope that we will be able to work out our differences at least of a while. So considering what you've said here's my proposition: Let's meet in neutral space, Sigma-13 at 8:00 CET on Saturday, 16.06.818AS. No tricks, no smoke and mirrors, just us, and no multi-crewed crafts or any hidden aces up our sleeves.Talk is indeed cheap, and we've seen a lot of empty words throughout the centuries, but if this cheap talk can actually save lives for once I think it's worth the effort to hear it out
