Spezialagent.

Despite the presence of initial contact i believe we did not have the pleasure of talking in person yet. My name is Celestia Ludenberg, Guildmistress of the Independent Miners Guild. Your awareness honors you, although nothing less was expected from the intelligence agency.
I assume that your inquiry refers to the Treaty of Snowdown, which Bretonia neglected at the time, and my predecessor did not remind them of it due to personal unawareness: things have been chaotic back in those days, and i doubt that something would have made Her Majesty to obey by the treaty in her desperation in the wake of the Gallic invasion.

But i am getting into semantics too much, am i not? The treaty as it is shall be forwarded to you below. It will also be available in our treaty database to which we may grant you access shall you request us to do so or, shall you find it necessary to get into the context of the treaty - to the initial frequency on which the treaty was later signed.

By all means - please do keep us updated. I can only express hopes that the discussion will not deteriorate into another conflict in Omegas.
