[hr][hr][center][color=tan][h1]Ingenis Karthis[/h1][h3][sup][i]Lord Regent of the Ark Imperialis[/i][/sup][/h3][/color] [hr][hr] [@thewizardguy][/center] [indent][indent]Unable to hide his scowling, the Lord Regent was less than impressed by his first contact, this "K'Vari" person. Judging by the voice, it was either xenos or someone with an absolutely atrocious inability to speak low gothic. The whole "perhaps you have more ships than you need" bit really got to Karthis's core as his heart flared up but he calmed himself down. Clenching his fists, his whispered to himself "Emperor give me thy strength" and breathed in. Five paces later, he breathed out. And then in for five paces, and exhale. He continued this process another three times until he felt his heart rate was sufficiently calm and he was suitable for action. [color=tan]"I would like to send a reply to our newest 'friend'."[/color] Karthis barked uncharacteristically, [color=tan]"Get me a servitor to record all of this as well. I'm especially interested in this Gregori Amastov person."[/color] "How much you want to bet he's one of them 'the Emperor chose me' kind of guys?" One of the crewmen betted. "Nah, I think he's 'I am da emprah!' person." the other preformed a crude jesture of a man twisting his arms and legs in right angle positions with a stupid dance to follow. [color=tan]"Gentlemen."[/color] Karthis coughed, [color=tan]"You two have a job remember."[/color] [quote]::TRADE PROPOSAL:: ::ONE "K'VARI":: While the Ark Imperialis and her fleet are in need of resources, we are by no means willing to give up ANY of our ships for whatever reason due to our circumstances. Our ships are under the protection of the Emperor and only in death will we give them to other hands. We are willing to negotiate trade and donations with whatever other resources we deem fit but with no guarantees of accepting random, unhelpful trades. However, we would also like to request a direct line to this "Gregori Amastov" who you have mentioned being your primary beneficiary. As Lord Regent of the Ark Imperialis, I would like to converse with a fellow leader of men and see for myself what kind of a man he is.[/quote] [/indent][/indent]
