Suar'kum tried to respond to the diplomat, but the chanting was so loud that not even the strongest shout was audible. Commander Lano'dum motioned to one of the flame-equipped heavies, who reloaded with a standard tank and raised his weapon in the air. He pulled the trigger, and a ferocious stream of white fire spewed out of its muzzle. He continued until the Collective members had quieted down. Vessel Suar'kum began to speak.

"I apologize, but if we are to talk peacefully we cannot have a bunch of...[i]animals[/i]...chanting as loud as they can! As empires converging on the discussion of an impending confrontation, we need at least a [i]minimal[/i] amount of civility. Not a bunch of your Synth shouting at the top of their lungs. The 3rd Escort Brigade's commander I cannot control..." he turned to the soldier, who had a silver sword drawn out, and was cleaning its gleaming blade meticulously with a silken cloth. "...Moguhl Bladesmen act mostly on their own accord, and me pressing onto them about everything they'll bring up the threatening of cultural identity. Under law, I can only order him to stop talking when he needs to, or Commander Lano'dum. I cannot affect the way he acts no matter how disciplined he is."

"And call upon us on our 'gung ho' and belligerent behavior cannot be justified by the likes of you. Our reports tell us that the Saeva Simius, or so you primates are otherwise called, are rather famous for being an aggressive and warlike species." Barasmus added. "We Sazkarjhit are certainly more reserved in that sense."
