TO: His Honor, The Autokrator Niciades of Greece
FROM: His Majesty, Arganthonios II, Archon Basilieus of Tartessos
We accept your proposition gladly, however we ourselves have our own counter-proposition. We, as your cultural brothers, propose a pact which would ensure our mutual security, a defensive pact. It is our belief that such a pact would do much to secure the trade routes of the mediterranean, and we eagerly hope that you accept.
