The Zoner Conference

[Dusty Lens]

Oh I've no doubt that a stern but reasonable letter to the Mollies will clarify how much of a bother their base and, indeed, presence in Dublin is proving to both the good people of Bretonia living on Gran Canaria and to the crown itself.

While we're at it perhaps we could point out that the blockade is proving to be an inconvenience to all of the peoples of Gran Canaria, including the rather robust Corsair population... But then it seems like it would be rather rude to presume on behalf of the good cretins, Cretians? The Corsairs of Gran Canaria. Mayhap we can arrange a sitdown between themselves and the Mollies to work out their differences.

Or, I suppose, if that all seems like a bit much we could assume that some waterways of Dublin are plied at the pleasure of the Mollies, including the 49 hole, and seek a channel through which those persons so inclined could negotiate whatever toll they plan to put into effect to avoid being shot to pieces.

As for the good people of Port Jackson, well, if they're not self sufficient by this point I can only hope that they've credits to their name. It's not as though they're above buying cabbage from the local mart like the rest of us and their logistics issues are just that, their logistics issues.

The Mollies owe us very little, their movements rarely put them in a position where the assets we broker serve as leverage. Their location within house space puts them well within the reach of smugglers under Junker and similar flags. We've provided very little save the affability of OSI and the TAZ, a planet of Corsairs at their doorstep and a Bretonian colony sitting just up their backside. All in all I wouldn't say that we're in a position to extend demands.
