Anyway, Temijen already offered that the bosmer over see construction and such of the new settlements. The redguard's are likely to keep to the coastal cities anyway. :K

Less volitial birds? I'm telling you we worship the God of the forest and he controls the spriggans I can't control them I may be a keeper but I'm still bosmer and as far as I know we can't talk to animals

But they can talk to spriggans?

Though now that I think about it, I'm not sure why i wouldn't be able to farm, considering the green pact only effects your people, never stated anywhere that you must never allow any other living thing to eat the fruits/crops of the forest/land. :K

I want to agree but you need to reneged that while I can't watch you everyday the spriggans well watch you 24/7 and will attack your people that break our green pact. We can't control them so that may lead to conflict

Can't you use the much less volatile birds for the exact same thing?

It's doubly hilarious because it'll put the Bosmer directly into a war with the Altmer ala current Altmer/Yokudan relations. "We're the only guys who can protect you from the same war whom we're the only guys who can drag you into it, but only if you give us your lands!"

You know the altmer are coming back for Valenwood. Seems allot of people want's it. I'm probably offering the best deal they will ever get. :P

So say the ports are under your control and the woods are still mine. But what will you do for food? We can't allow you to farm in vallenwood bit I could offer that my people give you a supply of meat but your produce had to come from elsewhere

Rome survived for years off of food shipped over seas, and these settlements will be much, much smaller, but local trade for meats would also be beneficial as it will be supplemented by fishing. Woodhearth survives mostly by fishing already anyway.

@greavouskahn what is youkuan law our whatever it you called it that you mentioned about the port cities?

Yokudan= Redguard, the former being the actual name of the race. But ya, it's more that the ports would be under our control and have redguard cultural influence.

Valenwood Coastline
24th of Midyear, 4E 205

As the redguard entourage neared the site of the meeting place, they came upon a large oval shaped glade. It was a rather beautiful spot all things considered. Butterflies of every color fluttered about in the calm winds. The smell of salt was heavy in the wind Temijen noted as the came to a stop at the edge of the clearing. The sun was still high in the sky, but a group of clouds currently hid its face, giving the area a warm air to it that was quite refreshing. The sound of bird calls and insects buzzing marked the majority of the background noise, added with just a few rays of light hitting the colorful collection of flowers before them, painted quite the serene picture.

Temijen caught the faintest whisper of movement, and knew instantly he and his group were no longer alone. A moment of worry crossed his mind, that the Bosmer would not honor the agreement, after all they had already proven to be turncoats to their former long trusted allies in the Dominion. He buried such fears quickly however, knowing not even the bosmer would me mad enough to start a war without negotiating first.

Temijen raised a hand to his party to hold position, before riding ahead slowly until he was just 10 feet from the Keeper, he then cleared his throat and began. "Honored Keeper of Valenwood, it is good we finally meet in person. I felt it was prudent we have this discussion face to face rather than by proxy. I'm sure you understand."

He paused for a moment before continuing, a welcoming smile on his lips. "But let us get to the issue at hand shall we? During the invasion of Hammerfell by the Aldmeri Dominion, a invasion force your people played a large role in, your allied armies spread terror and death throughout all of southern Hammerfell. My people, being the proud warriors we are, have since cried out for retribution. However, both our people have long since suffered under the curse of war, thus I offer you a proposal. With your recent victory over the altmer your people are now free, but for how long? Surely you know they will return, and with a vengeance at your recent betrayal. The Dominion have a formidable navy, among the strongest in Tamriel. While your own realm is void of any real fleet of any kind at all, thus defenseless when they reappear. Perhaps you will be able to defend the heart of your realm, but you coast and borders shall surely burn. Thus my offer will deal with two woes in one simple agreement. Hammerfell, and Hammerfell alone, possess the manpower and naval strength to defend you shores, Keeper."

"Once more, we will offer you our protection in the form of a defensive trading pact. If the bosmer agree to allow Hammerfell soldiers and ships to garrison in Valenwood coastal cities. We will also offer to build, with oversight of your people, two new coastal cities in northern Valenwood. Should you agree to the terms to cede your coastal territories, a new age of prosperity can only follow. Our trading vessels will open up the entirety of Tamriel to Bosmer merchants. We will use overland wood to construct our fleets and these new settlements, and the bosmer may continue to live as they have always lived, their culture and forest will remain untouched and unsoiled, we ask only that merchants who trade within these port cities pay a small tax, which will go to supporting the fleet that protects them and their goods, Yokudan law will rule within these trade cities, but your people will have full freedoms as they would elsewhere in Valenwood. In return the Bosmer must agree to never again side with the Dominion, or fight under their banner ever again."

After a short pause Temijen continued his tone easy and friendly. "I offer you, Keeper of Valenwood, the chance to reveal the honor of your people, and to rebuild what war has ravaged and destroyed. Lumber, the bosmer's most valued commodity, will be open to you from provinces rich in it, allowing you to rebuild without harming your forest. Think on my offer now, know that under it you not only continue to up hold you Green pact, but also are given the chance to truly prosper."

Temijen waited for the Keepers response; behind him his companions watched the landscape around with uneasy eyes. At least the forest was not as thick here as the heart of Valenwood.

Like , you mean.We abandoned nothing! You would betray us because the Emperor whispered in your ear I MIGHT cut down your forests. But instead of talking to me about it, you just rebelled and expelled me. All the Altmer want is to be the big brother protecting Valenwood.

Now they have no protector, we will see how that pans out, with nasty sea serpents south, mad cats east, angry brother west, and mean looking dark men north....
