"Fröhliche Weihnachten."
"We would be willing to explore avenues through which we can make amends for our role in the Krefeld incident. My people are enthusiastic to reduce the Hessian and Coalition influence over the Rheinland underworld, and the Corsair Empire remain the only means through which to do so."
"We have lately been receiving transmissions by concerned Corsairs inferring that there has been some confusion over the current situation between our populations. Why Corsair and Unioner traders are no longer cohering. The problem, is of course, obvious. Security issues. You cannot expose them to enviroments where the Hessians could repeat a similar assault."
"The Union needs to future-proof our sovereignty against the Red Hessians. You are the means through which this can happen. We've had a long history of working together before the Hessians deliberately broke us apart."
"We can do so again. It is, after all, Christmas. The Catholic and Orthodox elements of the Corsair population are significant, as are the Lutherian and Catholic populations of the Unioners. We may be Syndicalists, but we are not antispiritual."
"Krefeld happened because the Union attempted to toe a line that was constantly in motion. I am willing to accept that there is no middle ground between the Corsairs and the Red Hessians any longer."
"Krefeld changed this. Ultimately you were concerned for your own populations, and we paid the price for being unable to provide sufficient security. The Hessians attempted to extort us in exactly the same manner as Republican shipping did five hundred years ago. There are those within the Union who regard edge world organisations as the effective rapists of the central systems, if you pardon my language. I have had to appease their camp in the past, without discrimination for history or precedent. It's the price of one man, one vote; the less informed have equal political power to the informed. "
"If you're willing to open discussions, the Union possesses war-fighting and technical materials we would be willing to offer the Empire, unconditionally, in light of common enemies. We would also be willing to turn over to the Corsairs for prosecution a young pilot who broke the Omicron Xi barrier in the pursuit of Hellfire Legion vessels that crossed the Munich/Xi hole in the company of a Federal navy admiral, believe it or not. No Corsair vessels were around to intercept him at the time, but the Union succeeded in retrieving his flight data recorder and have him incarcerated on the charge of violating Corsair space. We would be willing to turn over the Arbeiter and the sensor logs from his ship irrespective as to how negotiations proceed."
"The laws of legitimate governments ultimately matter. We are willing to drop the Pilot at the edge of the Alps Cloud for Corsair collection."
You cannot cut off the tongue, of a man who speaks through his acts.

It seems that you have put yourself in a most difficult situation si?
Nobody likes your kind, it is something that we have in common.
You betray an empire, and then come back on your knees.
You have no pride, no honour, it is something that we do not have in common.
Someone like you needs to offer more, if you wish to make amends.

"I can understand.
Elder. You will not warm to this comparison. I’ve heard the same words out of Heinrich’s lips. ‘Traitor’. That I am a traitor, that the Unioners are traitors.
There is one trait you share with the Hessians and the Coalition, Elder, despite being their opposite in every other regard. You are both products of your environment just as I am a product of mine. You are denizens of the edge systems.
You operate across lightyears in a very separate theatre to us. Our people reside in a great tree. Yours? In a field. Your strategic scope is so much the greater than our own, yet the organism you are part of is disparate. The edge worlds are the territory of a few men impacting the decisions of light years. The core systems are a packed apartment complex. The consequence of lighting a fire in a field, and in an apartment, put different groups in danger.
It sometimes means that I must put a shotgun in my own mouth to avoid spraying the room, Elder. Showing strength works well in the edge worlds. In the core worlds, it makes you a target. The houses are more powerful than us immeasurably and we are not the masters of our own systems. Instead we operate in debris clouds, in the narrow smugglers corridors, on the streets of crowded megacities. Our influence is vast, but our territory is condensed.
It’s a problem I see regularly. The Liberty Rogues play the same balancing game in Liberty, as do the Golden Chrysanthemums in Kusari. We must scurry between the gears of great machines to not be crushed by them. Perhaps this makes us rats, cockroaches, vermin, if you like. It is what the houses would have us believe.
Do not view us as without principles. They might not be the same principles, but we hold ourselves to them and have behaved consistently. It has always fascinated me how organisations such as the Hogosha, the Lane Hackers, the Rogues, the Gaians, have collaborated successfully with the Unioners whilst Edge World societies seem to be bemused. They understand the nuance of life within the Core systems.
Corsair. I am not without honour. The Union is not without honour. If we were without honour, we would have turned our backs on the Empire. If we had betrayed your empire, we would be working with your enemies. Heinrich and the Coalition have made repeated attempts to bring us into their fold time and time again. We have rebuffed them each and every time. Each and every time we have avoided turning our backs on Crete. The Apostatas has reached out to us hoping to use our present rift to their advantage. We have rejected them. We have remained true to our principles not to betray a customer and a comrade. We have honoured our respect for your people again, and again.
We will continue to do so. “Traitor” is an empty, hollow word. No tener pelos en la lengua; Actions matter. How we rise to crises, matters. I understand your people are fostering ties with the Gallic crown, and because of this, you’re likely electing to be more judicious with your underworld connections.
We offer you this. We will trade your artifacts and provide you with military technology unconditionally till we are ourselves ready to fight the Red Hessians and the Coalition. We are not ready yet. Do not take my hesitation to engage the communists as anything less than pragmatism. Militarily we are not capable of achieving any more than holding them off.
I understand that your empire is attempting to churn out ships as rapidly as possible to send to the battlegrounds of New London and the Omega systems. We offer our Arbeiters to assist in your shipyards and expedite your shipbuilding processes. Should you require vessels manufactured from Rheinlandic lawful debris in the Xi system, we can provide you with technicians who can salvage Donau and Oder class vessels from the remains. The Union has lately discovered a jump hole connection that leads directly to the territory of your Gallic allies. We control the entrance and the exit – we even have a trading post assembled on the far side. It will shave considerable travel time away for Corsair traders transiting to and from the Omegas to the Gallic Core Systems. We offer you use of this jump connection, without charge. We are presently engaging every other party who attempts to transit the node that we detect, so your empire would be uniquely privileged. The remains of the LWB will ship your people foodstuffs from our interior worlds. I understand your own engineers are exceptionally talented, yet your own technological accomplishments are derived from the vessels you salvage and recover. In Bering we have the choicest salvage selections in the entirety of the Sirius Sector. So much so, that your new-found collegues in the GRI and EFL have actively collaborated with us to obtain them. We would willingly ship this to you.
Then, once we are ready, we will join you in flanking combat against the Hessians, and the Coalition. The Union will make a push for Wolfsberg shipyard, and strike the beast in the side.
This is the best offer the Unioners can provide. We do not operate Echar agua al mar, captain. Nor are we talking from our lips alone.
No confundas mi respeto por el rastreo. Los sindicalistas tenemos nuestro propio honor.
Estrecharé tu mano, pero no me inclinaré. Dudo que me respetaras si lo hiciera."
"I hope that we can trust each other again. Give us the agency to demonstrate the truth. At best, you gain. At worst, you lose nothing."

You are not ready to aid the empire in repelling the Hessian pest.
You are not ready to take on the Coalition and I take it you are unable or unwilling to divert their attention.
There is no need to bow señor, but to shake our hand you must bring something worthy to the table.
I am not without empathy, nor patience.
You might wish to contact us again when you are ready.

"Good. The Union thanks you for your consideration, Elder Buonocore. Your solidarity is more than a gesture to us."
"The Direktorate board has already offered food, aerospace engineering and technology. The traditional imports of your people, one way or the other, and to benefit your economy by exporting artifacts. Those are the classical concerns of the Corsairs, but I trust with your present designs on Cambridge the pressure has been alleviated by your endorsement by the DeFrances, certainly they would become secondary considerations should the empire triumph on the Bretonian front. We ourselves have no skin in the war, but have generally offered comfort to Gallic corporations and the GRI embedded within Rheinland wherever our interests align."
"I trust, then, the Empire seeks more than the traditional. A contribution from the Union to your cause that is more... esoteric than trade or defence considerations. Above the Hessian conflict or local security."
"The Union's goal is stability in the Rheinland underworld. My people are known to take audacious moves, but the objective is self-consistent. Stability. The Union thrives when the spotlight is turned off."
"Speak your mind, Elder. There are accommodations we can make beyond flesh and molybdenum."

My mind rattles and rattles trying to decipher what you are aiming at.
What is it you mean... esoteric...spotlight turned off....something above the conflict of Hessian and Corsair...
Stability?
Hmn....
If this is about love and marriage señor, I do feel flattered but I have a harem that suits my needs on that field.
Speak more clearly, if it is something else you wish to say!
Besos!
