QCP to the COZ

[Drake]

Edward grins at the Doctor, visibly pleased.

Very well then. I could point out that your destroyed trader was hauling goods through a warzone into Kusari, and our proposed treaty would have protected that ship. I could point out that the Zoners don't supply Bretonia with anything they can't get from somewhere else... Indeed, Zoner trade makes up an extremely small amount of Bretonian imports, and your precious 'iridium' is available in Liberty, not three systems away from Bretonia. I could point out that the Port Jackson lease agreement is signed for ten years and neither you nor anyone else has the authority to prematurely end it, try reading the contract sometime. I could point out that it's impossible to be racist versus an organization rather than an ethnicity. And I could point out that threats by the Zoners against the House of Bretonia are laughably hilarious. But I don't think I need to point any of that out, since it's all quite obvious.

Oh, and just so you know, we are interested in credits, very interested, but no one made an offer.

Edward stands, gives the Doctor a nod, and heads out the opposite door.
