Margrave, you show a great deal of disrespect towards a body which has contributed to the technology of Galloise for centuries, and continues to do so to this day. Ambassador Tinkerbell may be a junker from Sirius, but remember that they originated from our own junkers that made their way through the minefields hundreds of years ago. We may have been seperated with only minimal communication lines for many decades, but we are still one family.
If it were not for us, Gallia would have no jump gates, no trade lanes, and only a fraction of the starship technology which it relies on every minute of every day.
From what we know of these alien threats that Sirius has faced, they can be beaten, but only by unified efforts. The council currently stands in the way of a unified Gallia, and while it has it's purpose... it will not last forever. We must plan for the future of our Royalist nation, or we may be the next victims of these largely unknown threats.
Regardless, the Ambassador does not ask that you collaborate or work with the council, only that a facility constructed, owned, and operated by the Ferraileurs with the goal of defending against inhuman threats be left out of your targetting priorities. This facility will prove useful to all of Gallia, and I do not expect our King to resist it's construction.
