Well, you wanted to be left alone, and as long as you follow the laws set down by the new Council of Ministers you will be, that as one of the Ministers I can assure you, and the fact that you are not opposed to this change will make you friends within the council as will all that remain positive and calm during these times.
Maybe we do not understand each others thinking quite well, but that shouldn't be a problem. I am not opposed to your new goverment in any way, for all I care, make it a kingdom and I won't be oppsed, all I say is that I never was and never will be in the chain-of-command, nor in the masses of blind followers, but as long as we will all work towards the greatness of our nation, who will care about that. Just never try to pull pranks on me, I don't want to see any of council... no, sorry, goverment ... let's say, workers, trying to sniff around me, or my actions, and trust me, if there will be one, I will notice - I have many eyes and ears, much closer that you could imagine.
I will surely follow laws, as long as they won't be interfering with my actions. I do things in my own way, if you will say "Corsairs are our brethen now" I will still continue to tear their limbs off. I think you get what I mean.
Hell, who knows, maybe we will be friends in future.
Well..... to say the truth I do not support the new type of goverment, more of an enemy even. In fact.... I really can't get it, why our Great Nation need in it. But Im glad to see that our Dons are also in this goverment. That's why Im ready to be under their command...... just for now.
Also, senora Dejesus. You said about the old Council of Malta's Dons
Quote: Incompetence. Arrogance. Slacking. And overall stupidity. This is what the former council was largely composed of. Some of your dons not knowing what to do in a crysis, or any situation. Using their title for all sorts of benefits outside of the actual Council, social and materialistic. Lazyness. Refusing to show up at called meetings or diplomatic discussions. Need I go on?
Do you think, if you'll change the type of the goverment, you will change all to the best side? It depends from peoples, not from a goverment type...... and as it seems just old Dons renamed signs on their offices to "ministers".
Anyway, I wish you good luck.
With respect to the Council of Malta's Dons

Creature,
An anachronism vomits its poison down the fresh bosom of the Commonwealth, despoiling the carefully tended gown, beading on the yet unripe flesh. The poison? Stupidity. All creatures that live will die. You are not a Spirit to ascend above this, and as such death holds its sway over your soul. We may be long-lived, creature, but we are not immortal. Perhaps you should find time to recall this.
"What use have I for you", words directed at another Maltan. What use have the people of Malta have for you, creature? Perhaps fertiliser for the Cardamine fields, or would you taint even that with your unrestrained flailing? Power you wield without efficiency, without grace or accuracy. Are you a deserving custodian? I think it far from the case that the Maltan people deserve you.
This, creature, is what a threat looks like.
Threaten me, and I shall fracture your treasured syndicate from base to highest peak.
Claim to be a Minister? Act the part.
Deliberate with your fellows, and speak not without deliberation. Otherwise your words will be taken as they are, the ravings of an individual.
My respect is for those Ministers of the Commonwealth that have proved themselves possessing sanity.

My old friends, it has been a while since we last spoke. I reckon i should give you all my stance on this change.
As you all know i had the utmost faith in the Council, being one of the founders of the current... Or should i say former one. As much as it pains me to see the Council go up in flames, i am confident in all your ability to carry on the will of my men and carry on your goals.
But it is not all praise, i will also state if your current Government deviates from the will of Malta and my men, and you follow the path of other Governments of the past.... I shall break all allegiance to your people.... Do not cause unwanted hassle for me and my men, And do not betray the men that work under me, and respect you oh so dearly.
You have your men, we have our men and women. You focus on doing... Whatever the hell it is you people do. Oh wait, I know! Getting my ship blown up and me hospitalised! Yeah yeah, focus on the future. I'm only Hu- Outcast, I hold my grudges. I love it when grudges end in nuclear explosions, too.
Though, in a somewhat more 'official' way.. You stay out of our way and business, and we'll do the same. There won't be a whole lot of changes for the people of Malta, so you need not worry.

Lohingren lets off a deep sigh
Fiesty as all the Dejesus familia. Just do not forget who helped keep you alive, giving you the rarest item on that list.
Lohingren gives off a slight chuckle.
But no matter you are only 'human'... It is understandable you still hold a grudge. but none the less i appologize for your injuries they where not part of my plan... But, i shall take up no more of your time, Seniorita.
