Mr. Reeves

Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.

The corsair situation has always been questionable due to their wide-spread reputation and hostility to the Republic of Bretonia and our expeditionary fleet. More so the fact that we are separated by a good number of regions.

Because of that they are considered neither welcome nor hostile to Liberty. As Corsairs are regarded as savages and rather hostile and aggressive to most outsiders, we are rather reluctant to be involved in establishing a connection with them for any reason. However if what you are saying regarding this "Custodi movement" is correct, then we are more than willing to hear from them what makes them any different than the vast majority of the corsairs and what do they have to offer in regards of establishing an agreement. For as far as shared enemies go, that is likely to only include the outcasts in comparison to the many of our allies and our units that are attacked by your average corsair deliberately.

Shall there be an actual interest in trying to open up a diplomatic conversation or even negotiations, between the Republic of Liberty and the "Custodi Movement" we would require you to notify them to present us with their own representative to partake in such talks.

Regards,

- Harrison McRemitz, Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs
