Sir Henry Fairfax,

Hmph. I'd like to think that our assistance to Bretonia during the whole Gran Canaria affair would have earned us more than simply being another participant in an auction. Either way, regardless of what happens, Aland is going to end up in our hands at the end of the day. Worst case scenario, our capital ships outside of Aland will just simply remove the would-be owners after auction if for some reason our near-infinite cash flow isn't enough to purchase the shipyard in it's entirety. The best thing about this solution, is that you'd still get to keep your money, and be clean of whatever comes next.

-N. Archos
Supreme Guildmaster, The Core
