"Well, we have some great farmland. Some of the best on the continent. And there's a pretty good meat industry...somehow, it never struck me how pathetic that sounds. Um...we also have some good iron, but you probably don't need that. We also have a bit of manufacturing."
That all sounds very good. However, I'm going to have to take some time to consider if that's all right with you. You can't exactly negotiate treaties in a day, can you?Alkus dips his head to the screen.
I'll contact you once I've worked out a tally of things Kymore needs right now. Until then, elder.That done, Alkus retrieves a digital pad of some sort and taps a few orders into it, then settles down, contemplating the treaties.
Orders:
>Send a small group of dragnets to investigate the Ainur Redication. Find out their location.
>Make contact with the Czar-dragons. Request information on the Russian insurgents.
>Welcome the elder's niece if she arrives and do my best to accommodate her within my manor.
>Send a group of dragonets to go to the fishing villages by the Mediterranean. Question the locals as to the validity of the tales of the Captain and crew.
>Send a reccomendation* to the Council to start up steel production factories in the industrial factories of former Germany. Advise* that they hire some crafts dragons to produce glass figurines, jewlery, etc.
*Hint that the Golden Realm may wish to become a trading partner. Imply wealth.
>Have a conclave of intelligent dragons begin reaserch into weapons, defense systems, etc. Just in case.
As for myself...
>Take the opportunity to converse with the Elder's niece if she arrives. Find out the general state of her country.
>Begin considering candidates among the local dragonets to become an apprentice.
