Q: What did Baby Corn say to Mom Corn?
A: Where's Pop Corn?

Hail Lords of Alamaze, the Dwarven kingdom is looking to purchase food on turns 5,6, and 7. We would like to purchase 40k food for 20k gold on each of these turns. Any kingdoms in the south who would like some extra gold? Let us know if you can fill our granaries and we can fill your treasury's.

[Son of Conan]

Ah, we are back after another season. My black dragons have subdued the region and are happy and healthy.
To my friends the Ancient Ones, thank you for honoring our agreement. We have both demonstrated our truth and honor.
To my friends the Lizards, have you been able to appropriate the lost bow? My brother really misses it.
To all others, I don't yet know if you are friend or foe, so peace upon you all, even if it is the lasting peace of a well-earned death.

Young Dragon, m’boy... you indicate you aren’t sure if folks are friend or foe. We of the water are neither, but shall be slightly annoyed should we lose our village that you are currently camped at. Not sure if it’s enough to move us to “foe” status, though.

To all... We Atlantans but seek to be left alone to tinker in whatever you call this place we woke up to. Set your sights elsewhere and we shall happily ignore you, too. 

Above all, get off our sea.

How good it feels to spread our wings and once again have dominion over our lands. I see far to the south, that the Rangers share a border with me. I recall many stories of old involving your lineage. Brave and fearsome they were and possibly still are. The missing water children have returned as well. Has the great city of Atlantis risen? I have been able to smell those rock dwelling Dwarven folk just over the mountain range. Forever a thorn in my side, so stubborn and difficult to root out. Far to my north, I sense something quite intoxicating. I am told these new masters of illusion are tricksters as well as charlatans, but I can sense their power. I don't believe them to be as false as some may think. To each of my neighbors, this I promise you. If you set foot in my realm, we will have war. If you find yourself under the shadows of red wings, fear not. I am in search of shiny playthings to appease my desires. This season is a season for roaming and relishing in the splendor of Dominion over Krynn.

Should any mortals desire something from me, I would entertain a discussion. It has been too long since I have felt the fear of a mortal in my presence. I would enjoy this experience again.

Lord of the Blazen Skies!!!

Ahhhhhh, I find that one Kingdom, in particular, has attempted to avoid my gaze. I see that part of my Eastern border is shared by a Dark Figure. I see you Lord of Shadows. Your movements may be hidden and secret, but don't be surprised at what one can see from the skies. Your agents are skilled and your talents not to be overlooked, but I will view your actions no different than those of other mortals. If your eyes, ears, or shadows happen to appear in my realm without my consent, then prepare for fire and flame. The day may come when your services might be of interest to me. Should that day arrive I will reward you well. Choose your activities well as our future dealings will be based on past actions!

Lord of the Blazen Skies!!!

Lord of the Dwarven Kingdom, I would offer you a counter trade 30k food for 30k gold, I know your talents with trade and this would allow you to almost reach the number you seek. I cannot promise for all three turns as I do not know my neighbors intentions in my lands, or I would extend the offer in your harsh times.

Dragons, Dragons, Dragons..

First Lord of the Black Dragons thank you for the graciousness in our trade, once again my apologies, as old as me and my brothers are you would think 3 is 3 and 4 is 4 but it all runs together for us at times, you are a most noble creature thank you.

Lord of the Red I hope your leaving us out of your very beautiful speech was simply an oversight and not something more ominous, as even the spider in Triumvia was mentioned, honestly our feelings are a little hurt. Know if your intentions are in our lands fire and death from above while swift and fierce will not save you from three grumpy old men who want others to simply stay off their "lawn".

OOC:
So still a new player so I have a question based on what happened to me recently and also for future reference.
If a mistake is made when traiding, your not able to keep a trade made a couple turns prior and such what is an acceptable form of communication.
As some example lets say
I offer to trade gold for food over 3 turns, on the 2nd turn I am hit with someone taking all my villages or in someway the trade becomes impossible to complete. Now I don't want to mess someone else game up by not letting them know but it seems in the confines of the game we cannot speak. To me it would be reasonable to let that person know.

I think silence is silence, regardless of circumstances. In the circumstance you mention, it's up to you if you want to sacrifice your own well-being to keep your trade agreements (possibly starving your troops) or if you want to 'screw over' your trade partner. It's a good warning to all of us to consider well the people we are agreeing to trade with.

Atlantis has indeed risen and is rubbing the sleep from its eyes and trying to find the coffee. Does coffee still exist in this world? We stopped by an Ancient One's cafe and all they had were matcha lattes, whatever those may be. New age crap, if you ask me.
