"It's no picnic. Corsairs and Bretonians trading fore a few dozen kilos awsy isn't helping us maintain nuetrality. We've had to tell multiple parties to move warships od gunboat and greater away, sometimes using force." She takes a drink of her water. "Qhile the colonization itself has not affected Freeport One directly, inderectly, the danger of a fight near One has risen. Which is no fun for any of us." She sighs. "In all, the situation is essentially a powder keg. Just takes one idiot..." She scowls. "Not to mention the independant pirate gangs using One bring the ire of both Bretonia and Rheinland. The fuseline is set...all it needs is a spark."

Finished, Teresa sits, sighing.
