You had said you planned no aggression against Ionian allies.

Unless I am mistaken?

And why are you here, Gearheart? 'Ease of trading'?

That's one of the purposes of law 108, most certainly.

Are you here to 'trade' me what I had asked for?

If not, then I am not sure you would have anything I would wish to... purchase.

The guild had requested it, old boy! Turns out there was a private collector in your city who had a very urgent trade request.

And since we couldn't launch airships, well, it was important we travel here directly.

And I take it you are not going to tell me who that might be, are you?

Why, Cryostoria, it's not MY business who the guild is trading with, just my business to see they are able to do it.

Perhaps one of your nobles may have some more information for you.

I'm to understand what they were getting was something... quite precious.

I am in no mood for you to play games with me, Gearheart.

After that, oh, maybe you could show me around your fair city? I would love to take a tour.

I will give you until the sun sets to conduct your business.

After that, I would HOPE you would do the proper thing and retreat your city.

That is all I will say on the issue.

President Gearheart. Admiral Laur. If you'll excuse me.
