I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die. -
In from Banana:
Hello Rabbits,
I wanted to contact you to explain my reasons for rejecting your request for Feudalism. Unfortunately, we are in a 60 turn NAP with PAL, with one of terms being that we don't trade with you. This was a decision I had to make as soon as I inherited the team and all options were considered, including war with PAL. And though I think we could have started well, I don't believe we would have had the resources to outlast them.
With that said, I am glad to see that your team is holding up. By what I have seen, it looks like you been able to build two new cities during your continued war with our mutual neighbor. How did you pull that off? Are you currently in cease fire mode? I understand if you cannot answer these questions, but can assure you that I am asking for no one's benefit but my own.
Our NAP is due to end with PAL on Turn 167, whereby if they want to renew it I will state that I wish to trade with your team. Will you be able to hold out until then?
Respectfully,
Donovan Zoi
Team Banana
PS. If there is any remote chance that your survival is due to an alliance "to be named later" with a team that has razed your cities, then you may not be game for any future proposals from us. However, I don't feel this would be in your best interests. Please respond if you would like to discuss this further.Let your every day be full of joy, love the child that holds your hand, let your wife delight in your embrace, for these alone are the concerns of humanity.

Ah, missed this before.
Still 24 turns before we could trade Feudalism with them. It's something we could manage as long as no grenadiers/cannons start knocking on our gates.
What kind of response do we give?Comment

New from Banana:
Rabbits,
I forgot to mention another reason why we chose to honor an NAP with PAL so long ago. It was the fact that we had tried to ask questions of you that would have benefitted us both, but you never responded! Perhaps a bit of coordination between us could have helped things back then.
And so we are in the same position today. On Turn 167, we may find ourselves in a position to trade with you again, and if we are able to do so, we could certainly make it worth your while. However, if you continue to show no interest in speaking with us, we may be forced to re-new our NAP with PAL and be of no help to you whatsoever. Again.
A friendly word of advice, and a no brainer: Guard your Iron city. PAL has a Galley on the other side of the bay. I have a Warrior nearby that can help scout if you'll allow it.
Hope to hear from you this time.
Regards,
Donovan Zoi

Intersecting information about the pal galley, I just wonder which bay they are talking about.
BTW I have got a feeling that pal has a spy in out area, Akhetaten suddenly got three war chariots.
Maybe we should tell banana that we will be happy to talk to them after turn 167.

How about,
Banana,
We thought we had a non aggression pact with PAL at one time and look what it got us. In our opinion no one can trust PAL to do what they say.
Did you know that Pi-Ramses and Elephantine are each defended by one warrior. They also have three workers working away in that area.
And as you already know PAL has no direct access to iron.
RabbitYes, negotiations could take some time.Comment

Rabbits,
On Turn 167, our teams will be able to trade again. We intend to gift you Feudalism and possibly other techs if you are still at war with PAL. We will also try to provide you with upgrade cash when available.
Please let me know any questions or comments you may have regarding future arrangements.

Banana,
You have pulled off a great triumph in "killing" the bully on the block. We had planned on rejoining the fight before you had knocked out PAL. We will be taking up arms against them soon to help finish them off.
We have not thought much about how a world without PAL would look. Rabbits and Banana share much. A common land. A hatred for PAL. We have greatly benefitted from your generosity. I am certain there is more we could do together.
RabbitYes, negotiations could take some time.Comment
