OOC: As for colour, (as i was asked earlier to change it) it's not that important so i don't mind. This is a bit long in my opinion, but i don't see how to cut it down.
A Typical Intriuge in the Days of Old, Part 4:
Argos walked into the Commoner's Guild trading post. It was just a weak outpost, but this was the only Guild presence in the area.
"Here- my Swissian fingernail. You must have heard of it's importance."
"Yes- I need to let my superiors know this right away!"
Mevel walked down the new road, as the Snipe squad followed.
Mevel walked in to the Commoner's Guild trading post, as the men drew their spears.
"So?" said their leader. "Hyksos wants this fingernail, does he? Wants to show the superiority of the priest caste, eh?"
"No- you misunderstand! Hyksos-"
"No- that is the end of the matter. Leave."
"We have to help him!" exclaimed Mel.
"No- this is the end of the matter! We have to organise an Anti-Priest coalition before it's too late!"
"You think Yetin doesn't see that! We have to move!"
"But- we'd be disobeying orders!"
"I don't know about you, but I’m not taking a pay cut!"
Mel rushed in.
"A Snipe alliance! What is going on!"
"Wait!" said Argos. "The priest looks shocked. This Snipe is obviously not on the same side."
"My squad are under the impression they can hide. I'm the squad leader's right hand man, so he won't shoot me. We've been following Mevel and intending to help him."
"What are Snipes doing help a priest servant- recently a squad of ours stole the Intrigue Map, and your relations are at 30!"
"This is against orders, but sometimes rules are made to be broken.”
Gel gave up, walking out. " Our squad could have assassinated Mevel at any point along that road- it would have been easy! One shot- one kill!"
The Guild leader sighed. "I'm only an outpost leader, but I am beginning to see this is important. Now, explain the full story."
Gel sneezed a little, and started talking "Hyksos and the priest caste are running out of gods to marry to Swissia's family, so Yetin wants to lie and claim a split in the pantheon! With that precedent, they will soon begin reforming Orthodoxy to something that's virtually Scanianism! Hyksos wants a sign to show Yetin that what they are doing is wrong, and asked Mevel to get the Swissian fingernail.”
The Guild leader sighed again. "Alright- I'm Paranodis, and I propose that my squad back you up. We must get this fingernail to the temple before the nobles attack!" He gave it to Mevel. "You guard it."
A group of nobles walked down the road, and confronted them. "Surrender the fingernail" threatened the head noble. "Or we attack!"
"Snipes at the ready!" exclaimed Gel, as his men drew their bows. "Fire!"
All the nobles fell dead.
Another group of nobles rushed in- with shields this time. Paranodis's men rushed in and started fighting. "Into the bushes!" ordered Gel.
The Snipes rushed into the bushes, and drew their bows. "Fire!"
Another squad went down. "OVER THERE!" yelled Argos, pointing.
"Oh no!" exclaimed Paranoidis. "It's a squad of warriors! We're no match for the Warrior Caste- we have to pull back!"
"If we pull back now, we'll be intercepted on the road!"
"We can't beat the Warriors!"
Gel sighed. "We'll hold them!"
To force Paranodis to action, Gel and Mel rushed towards the enemy. Paranodis rushed down along the road, Mevel following behind.
Gel, Mel, and their squad assembled into formation, as the warriors went up to them.
"Such a small thing, and yet so valuable. One fingernail worth more then all the gold in the world" remarked the Warrior leader.
"Draw bows" said Gel, quietly. The squad obeyed.
"You think I didn't see that?" asked the leader.
Gel sighed. “Damn”
The man pointed his sword at Gel's neck. "I, Ogarimus Tedimus, want that fingernail! You will tell me where that fingernail is or you die!"
Gel kicked him in the groin, and ran back a few steps. "Try it."
Ogarimus called to his men. "Squad- move back! I'll show them what I can do!"
The men obeyed without question, as the Snipes encircled Ogarimus. "Finish that idiot!" exclaimed Gel. They started slicing at him with their spears, but Ogarimus parried every blow. He counterattacked with a swipe, and half the Snipes fell. The other half began to run, so he rushed at them and finished them off.
Mel drew his sword. "I fight for the cause of Swissia- he shall protect me!"
Ogarimus rushed at him, slicing. He parried, and Ogarimus pulled back his sword, turning it around and slicing Mel's head off.
"NO!" shouted Gel.
Gel fell into tears, as Ogarimus approached him. "Now- where is that fingernail!"
Gel looked into his eyes. "Yes- I will kill you if you don't tell me." added Ogarimus.
"They've taken a detour to hide in Prussia and hold out for a time! If you hurry, you can stop them!"
Ogarimus smiled. "You see- he's told us the complete truth so quickly! Let's go!"
Gel wiped away his tears. "I have to get back to the others!"
, as for your diplo, I shall craft an appropriate response a little later 
I should also speak that your OOC opinions shouldn't matter at all, of course considering the current history so far I assume you're not exactly roleplaying though neither are many nesers and meh... And for LB, I must apologize in advance, I can't just let you have Tartessos, makes Rome lose face
