While the two leaders had met breifly before, they had not had the time to sit down and dicuss view and propositions. Now that they were finally becoming involved, Novak was happy as Vollan seemed to have very similar opinions as she did. "I think an alliance between Nova Domov and Brislow would be greatly benefitial. It will open the door to more trade, a stronger military force, and a friendly relationship upon our people." Novak offered Vollan a brief smile before her eyes drifted back to her notes and she was reminded of her second point. "Should Lagita and Monrot break out in war, I anticipate one of them to ask us to cease trade with the other, as we are their neighbouring countries. I would wish not to take a side in that matter and should they ask this, my initial decision would be to cease trade with both countries until the war is over. However, I am fearful of that angering both nations, and crippling our economy. I was wondering what your thoughts would be on the matter."
