To the Esteemed Lord Lothaedus Swordhand, Leader of the First Men and Supreme Commander of Antiquities and Adventure,
I am Bottlenose, diplomatic liaison for the Gnomes, and we receive your recent goodwill message with great enthusiasm and mutual assurances of honor! We, too, believe that our word must be our bond, lest our entire civilization descend into anarchy and chaos.
Although we are not neighbors, we nevertheless wanted to express our deep appreciation for the values you have expressed, and on that note, offer up freely a pact of non-aggression through the end of the winter, spring, or next summer, as you choose.
Based on the auspicious portents of your message, we would also be open to considering an even deeper relationship as time passes. You never know when one or the other of us could use a fast and loyal friend.
With Honor and Honesty,
Bottlenose, for the Gnomes
[RA - GN]
Hail Great Bottlenose, Lord of the Gnomes!
I am truly humbled and honored at your olive branch. I happily accept your pact of non-aggression and would greatly enjoy a stronger bond of friendship. I have a beautiful daughter of marriage age and she has expressed a desire to live amongst the gnomes in the most beautiful region of Runnimede. Perhaps with a marriage between our two great families, we could secure a stronger bond. I had to be so crass as to discuss clauses in light of a potentially happy blessing, but what I was thinking was a NAP that could only be broken with a full 4 turns notice. Of course, my desire would be to never break the agreement because I think our families could gain much from each other.
Your friend,
Lord Lothaedus Swordhand

Well met Great Black Wyrm. The Rangers have long admired the strength and courage of your race and we hope to usher in a long lasting term of peace. I am hopeful that we can retain my child-hood town in the Southern Sands as it holds many fond memories of my youth. I am also hopeful that we can enter into a long term peace accord with each other. I humbly propose that we sign a treaty lasting through the Summer of 1101 with the option to renew if both parties agree. I trust all is well with you and your family and I hopefully look forward to forging a close friendship between our two peoples.

The Great Lord of Everything Between Land and Stars greets you, Human of the Wood. We are content to name you Viceroy of Synisvania and allow you to administer that poor land in Our Name. Your little town in the Great Sand, though a blemish on Perfection, is beneath Our notice and you may continue to visit so long as you do not make other trespass upon The Great Southern Sands of Our Birth. We shall revisit this decision during the next great heat and starving time.
OOC
General NAP in place through next Summer. No poaching or searching for treasures within the other's controlled region. We can discuss any trades or alliances at need.

(OOC - Sorry for delay - I will likley only be able to check these forums every few days - just so that everyone is aware that any delay is not intended to be a slight in any way.)
Great Lord of Everything Between Land and Stars,
I am honored to accept your terms of a NAP through next Summer. In fact, I hope we can renew the NAP at that time as I have nothing but the greatest admiration and respect for you. I must make one slight modification which I humbly ask you to consider. You see, there is an ancient Ranger heirloom buried near my home town. I am having some soldiers that were stationed in my home town secure this ancient relic and then they have orders to immediately leave the Southern Sands with all haste. I hope this does not displease you and I hope that you understand it is only because this item is an ancient Ranger relic that I ask for the exception.
If you are okay with this modification and our NAP is in place, I am happy to tell you the location of my home town so that you do not waste efforts exploring for it.
Best,
Lord Lothaedus Swordhand

Great King Stonethrower,
Greetings to our friends to the east! As we wandered around the land, we happened to stumble across a village with no allegiances to anyone in western Arcania.
As we have no use for this village, I was wondering if you might be willing to step up (by one turn) the timetable on the transfer of your village to me in Runnimede, in exchange for the location of this Arcania village? You could either use it as a training group for your Ever Victorious Army, or perhaps give it to the Ancient Ones if the rumors of a deal between the two of you are true, assuming he hasn't found anything yet himself.
Please let me know if you are interested, and if so, the location of your village in Runnimede, and I will reciprocate immediately. Thank you!
Sincerely,
Bottlenose, for the Gnomes

My peoples have no love for your peoples but your spies may have noticed my emissary visiting your City. I will state now on this open forum that my emissary is simply travelling on a long journey and needed to stop at the city only for refreshment. I alert you to this to save any animosity and to save you from an unneeded sleep spell. You have my word that if my emissary is unmolested he will be moving out of your territory this turn. Fair?

I hope the month went well Mage King. I notice you have an emissary at the land city in Amberland. Can I trust you not to impede my diplomatic efforts in that city? I had mentioned that the water city should be yours and that you can have control of the region with my blessing. To this end I hope you would allow events to take there place at the other city in the region. If we need to redistribute later to insure you get control that will be fine with me. Does this meet with your approval?

We are loathe to be the first kingdom to betray our secrets in this open forum but in the spirit of goodwill we suggest the Gnome look to the exact corner of the world to find out village in Runnimede. I hope this will be the beginning of a productive relationship.
Where shall we look for the village in Arcania?

Great King Stonethrower,
Thank you! The village is in the plains at the furthest western point in Arcania (RG). Please note that as I mentioned, I recommend either sending a military group or ceding it to the Ancient Ones. They might like it, as it is close to their own holdings in southern Torvale and thus more easily defensible for them.
You could also opt to send an emissary in mid-Autumn (T3), after my group moves on (which it is, immediately).
Also, please note that in the unlikely event the Warlock does not honor his agreements with you, I would stand with you fully.
Best,
Bottlenose, for the Gnomes
