I thought that my answer was already given... however, that not being the case, let me once again state what my plan of action will be.
We are no longer conducting communiques with the Hellfire Legion. Further, we never had the intentions of establishing an alliance. Let me reiterate: We will never ally ourselves to criminals, unless said organization was pardoned for all crimes done. Therefore, please retract this ultimatum of your own, lest open hostility ensue.
However. We are not going to dismiss the possibility of accepting any organization's request to speak with me. I made it clear before, I thought, that my position as Ambassador garnered the right to speak with whomever I chose to. That being said, I never speak about the possibilities of an alliance without some form of prior warning, especially if the other faction in question is one of... questionable loyalty.
Now, I expect that we let the entire "alliance" rubbish drop. Never was there any indication that I intended to speak about alliances. The only inkling of evidence that this would have been a possible subject spoken about between myself and the Hellfire Legion commander, Drake Thastus, was a transmission made by him. I blatantly stated that I would not engage in an alliance.
Finally, I am saddened to state that an alliance between the Southern Alliance and the Kusari Naval Forces would be nigh impossible unless something strange and miraculous occurred. Barring that, however... On that note, if you require any assistance in humanitarian endeavors, the Kusari Naval Forces would be happy to aid you.
Yours,
Madam Fiona H. deLuna
Ambassador of the Kusari Naval Forces
