To The Associated Cities Of Sheen, to be read by Garend Marston and before the Upper and Lower Houses.
Greetings. In recent days, I have been pleased to see the continued expansion of our relationship together, but this letter is unfortunately not our long-awaited trade agreement. Instead it is a formal protest against your recent annexation of islands which are within our sphere of influence. This recent development by you has caused quite a bit of disturbance within our territory, especially among the shipping magnates and those Dunwikki of a more nationalistic bent, and it has in fact soured the perception of our public towards you. We forecast sales of Sheenish goods to decline by nearly a fifth in our territories.
I, more than anyone else, wish to rectify this immediately, and so in good will, and in hopes of continuing to have peaceful and amiable relations between us, will offer this deal for your consideration.
The Associated Cities Of Sheen will renounce their claims towards the islands recently seized in their latest expansion, and instead cede the territory to us, the Confederation Of Dunwik. In exchange, we at Dunwik will provide one and half times the estimated market value of those islands, paid off over a ten year period, and for the next fifteen years, any and all Sheenish vessels or merchants operating on those territories will be operating void of any export tariff or tax to pass. In all matters except following law (and our law is less restrictive than yours), they will be acting as though they are in Sheenish territory.
Hopefully this deal is accepted, the last thing we would want is tension between our nations. There are greater threats to consider, and we do hope that you take our deal.
-Grand Chairman of Dunwik, Howard Philips Nelson
The note, as is typical of Dunwikki negotiations, comes with a gift, this time of pineapples in ice and a crate with exactly five kilograms of cocaine in it.

I must apologise profusely for this unfortunate position I have thrusted our two nations into, as with the annexation I had meant no insult to your people, and as such we find these terms mostly agreeable, however we only ask in addition for our merchants to be able to freely base in your ports for as long as our nations are on good terms, and in return we shall also provide free basing for your merchants in all of ours. With this addition I see not only a rectification of an honest mistake but also a move towards a closer friendship of our two countries. I must also note that your second gift that came with the pineapples was graciously accepted by the Mayor of Daithsaiws, and he is interested in procuring more.
Kind regards,
Lord Mayor Garend Marston. |

That addendum will only benefit the both of us, and we accept your terms without need for further modification. Negotiations over pineapple import will be performed by our merchants in the free market with the complete opening of our ports, and will not require my direct intervention. In coming days, you will be able to purchase them from one of many purveyors from my nation.
We hope that all future negotiations shall be as painless and efficient as these. Best of luck in your upcoming election.
Grand Chairman of Dunwik, Howard Philips Nelson. |
