The Brotherhood and the council of Elders agreed on the terms. The Council will broadcast an official statement thru our official channel in the next 24 to 48 hours. We will also be applying in the behalf of the brotherhood to the Kusari Board.
We will require all our ships who are willing to head to Kusari to remove any cloaking device or use alternative ships. From now on, Nina Rodriguez will be in charge of the Brotherhood pilots and traders heading your way. If you have questions or specific requests, forward them to her. Centurion Rodriguez is young but capable and can be trusted.
In the behalf of the corsairs empire i thank you and the Empire of Kusari for the opportunity you giving us. We will make sure it's profitable for both parties

Elder,
I benevolently welcome your interests and desires to assist our Great House, however I highly disapprove of the hastiness in ratifying our accords. Nonetheless, it is not for I, but for His Highness, the Emperor, and his trusted staff, to decide the future of this agreement.
The points that the Empire of Kusari will recognize are the following and only these, with no other exception:
The Emperor of the Great House of Kusari acknowledges the desire of the Corsair Empire to cooperate closer and hereby recognizes them as neutral entities within Kusari Sovereign systems and her borders;
The Corsair Empire agrees to recognize all Kusari entities, namely, Naval Forces, Office of Intelligence, State Police, Kishiro Techonologies, Samura Heavy Industries and Hogosha Alliance as allied and solemnly proclaims that they shall not be faced with hostile action;
The Empire of Kusari recognizes the interests of the Brotherhood to operate within Sovereign Space and agrees to integrate them into the venerable Bounty Boards system;
The Empire of Kusari acknowledges the wish of the Corsair Empire to continue the commerce of artifacts and provides Shirosato Station as a drop-off installation for their trade in Kusari and beyond;
The Corsair Empire shall provide 15% of the total Credits acquired from the artifact trade to Kusari monthly.
If these points indeed contain the entirety of the discussed agreement, and, with your solemn confirmation that they do so, we see no issue in recognizing and ratifying the accord on our own part.
In regards to the credits owed, 5% shall be provided to the Imperial Coffers, namely the account Anzen-1, and 10% to the Hogosha Alliance, namely to the <|>Homare-Sa account. With that clarified, I also wish to make clear that we will only accept the trade of artifacts after the treaty has been announced to the populace.
I will await a response confirming that the mentioned points take into consideration the Corsair Empire's wishes and then further assist in upholding the acccord, as previously-mentioned.
Sorry for the delay in the response. I had important business to take care outside the Omicrons and seem like our satellites relay got disrupted by a massive ion storm within the Omegas. This being said, We do accept your condition on the behalf of the brotherhood and Corsair empire. Sadly it's seem that the group known as Deterrence might not agreed much but on the long run, we are sure they will foresee the benefit of such cooperation.
As it come to the payment, since we can't keep track of all the corsairs traders, some being discret about their business, we are willing to do a 75 000 000 S.C for the 5% and 150 000 000 for the 10%. This, we think, should cover the "taxes" until the new years. At this point, we will see how the deal have been working for both parties and re-ajust the percentage if needed. For all the other condition, the empire and the citizen will recognize all Kusari entities and comply to the foresaid conditions.
The dineros will be sent if you agree to this monetary term. The council of Elders always prefer doing this kind of payments since one of our former member had, to keep it polite, the nasty habit to take money from our treasury for it's own expenses. This way it's easier for our accountant to keep track of any transfers. I hope you understand our position regarding the money.

Elder,
Your response is much delayed, and I do not believe the Emperor is too delighted to hear that it took so long for our 'allies' to make up their minds, for His Highness has little patience with those whom are not as hasty as we are in matters concerning Kusari.
Yet I am providing you with the benefit of the doubt in this case. Transfer the credits to the designated accounts, and confirm such. Once that is done, and with our esteemed Emperor's supreme approval, we shall announce this agreement to all of Kusari.

Elder Rodriguez.
It has been a while. Unfortunately, I am to disrupt your on-going conversation with our most venerable Itto Kaisa Mitsuo and temporarily halt this negotiations.
Briefly following Mitsuo-san's last message, a new message from a different party from Crete arrived us. The so-called "Detterence Conclave" has issued us their opinion about a prematurely published broadcast of your side and pointed at potential issues rendering the deal insufficient to them.
If Planet Crete is divided by political rifts, it is now time to inform us about them. Any further direct negotiation between individual parties and the Empire of Kusari will be hereby halted. We propose a joint summit held between the following parties: "The Brotherhood", the "Detterence Conclave", the "Hogosha Alliance" and the Foreign Ministry of the Kusari Empire. The people of Crete are to settle on a joint course, the Hogosha Alliance shall act as negotiator between both Cretan parties.
With regards, Imperial Foreign Affairs Minister,
