The Zoner Conference

[Mikrosh]

Mikrosh stands up and looks around, facing every person at the table.

Gentlemen, I am confused... Anyone here knows what they want? Anyone here got an idea of why we all gathered here?

Correct me if I am wrong, but for me this meeting seems to be nothing more than a long diner. We all gathered here only for the food and some small talk?

I see that people here are afraid of a new form of alliance between the zoner groups. Some of you here talk about "zoners being free" therefore any kind of alliance, pact or council will fail, because zoners are free people..

We are free people indeed, but how free are we? Aren't most of you here leaders of a zoner group? How can you state that zoners are free if you lead your people? How would be a zoner council any different of your own leadership?

How do you expect us to succeed if you are afraid to work together?
I agree with you that the old council failed at some points, but was that the first form of "government", if it can be named that way, was it the first one to fail? I ensure you gentlemen that it was not. We have tested all kind of "governments" along the history of mankind, most of them failed. But, did mankind ever stopped to build new ones? No! Because we are weak as individuals, that is why we group ourselves, we stick together and that way we evolve.

I suggest you all to rethink about a new "council" or a new "alliance". We need something to keep us together, we need something to help us improve our relationships, we need something to help us survive.

I don't suggest you all to accept a new form of government similar to the house governments. But, I suggest you all to think, to work together, and together we can come up with something that might help us all, zoners and mankind.

If you plan to do nothing more than just gather here for a meal, and only chit chat about things without doing anything to help your people, our people, the zoners from all around sirius then, count me out.

I intend not to offend your food Mr Holiday, but I prefer to eat synthetic paste close to my people, and work side by side with them, and actualy do something than gather here, eat luxury food and do nothing.

We have accomplished nothing here yet. We've talked about certain topics, some of them of major importance, but we did nothing to solve them or to stop them from repeating.

He takes a small brake, facing everyone again, trying to read their reactions.

I ask you again gentlemen, why have we gathered here?

He takes back he's sit.
