Great King Stonethrower,
Consider the trade of 1 food for at least 22,000 gold done. And while I certainly do not have any issues with attempting to raise your influence with the High Council, I fear that telegraphing our bid in advance would not be helpful, and so if you wish for me to make a bid on your behalf the month after this one, please include some amount in excess of 22,000 gold this month, and whatever that excess is, I will bid for you the month after, and if I am overbid that month, for one more month after that. But if I am overbid twice, then my obligation to you ends. Does that sound fair?
Also, if you are willing, I would love to formalize our friendship with a non-aggression pact through the end of next winter [i.e. end-of-T19]. Would you be amenable to this? Many thanks, Great King, and many congratulations to you on the taking of Arcania!
Sincerely,
Bottlenose, for the Gnomes
