[center][b]Response to Nehalenian request[/b][/center]

[i]Dear King George Therus III,
Since you have no will or desire to write to me personally, but rather leave diplomatic matters to those below you I took it upon myself to show how proper civilized nations address fellow kings. You have expressed displeasement with Amazonian trade, an understandable feeling, one that we may have taken pity on earlier. However now situations have changed.
	As I’m sure you are well aware one of our merchant vessels carrying those weapons that you were so displeased by went missing a few months ago. Considering how shortly after I received this dreadful message from your people, the only men brave enough to address me, I can only come to the conclusion that it was you that captured this ship. An act, might I remind you, that gives me full rights to go to war with you.
	Ironically, it is the very same act that you are attempting to invade Amazonia over at this very moment. I’m sure many would agree that this is a tort of a barbaric peoples not a civilized sovereign in the old world. However the people of Nehelania have proven me wrong, or are you to nothing more than a barbaric peoples?
	Do not despair however, as civilized people we are forgiving, kind, and benevolent to the lessers. So with it I bring you this, not a request but a demand for reparations for these pitiful actions. First, you shall return both the merchant ship you wrongfully captured as if a prisoner of war and the crew members held in captivity. Second, you shall pay costs to repair any damages of the ship. Third, Braiyusalian ships must have free passage to trade with any nation they feel the right to trade within the old world and new. Fourth, and lastly, I demand a man of importance and rank to be held until it is felt that all requirements are met. Living arrangements will be made to his liking of course, but he must remain under Braiyusalian watch.

With regret,
   ~King Rolfe of House Rolant[/i]

Message to the people of Zellon

[i]King Conrad,
	After much considerations of our recent talks in your homeland I would like to reconsider the defensive alliance you previously proposed. The Nehelanian people have brought much grief to our lands, and I feel that this is the best solution to end those griefs.
Sincerely,
   King Rolfe of House Rolant[/i]
