"But perhaps if you were to form friendly relations with the Collective, wouldn't that alleviate the issue? Granted, the Triarian Collective aren't an easy bunch to get a long with, but that doesn't mean it's impossible. However, declaring war on them is not the best solution. We have seen that the Collective is powerful. We've seen their navies far superior to others'. I do not mean to instill flattery upon those, but you need to understand that they're powerful. The Pact in general will suffer substantial casualties if you enter war with the Collective. We must not fight, we must not quarrel over small things. Preventing a full-scale battle is the most important issue right now."
