We actually found two spots we're willing to consider.

This spot is north of Lodz so we understand if this is unacceptable. However it most likely only has two luxuries that are copies of what you already have.

This spot is south and a little to the east of Lodz. You can actually see it's borders to the north west. Kuala Lampur is also to the north west.

Would either city spot be acceptable?

We accidentally rejected your offer when we checked it. We re-sent it, but sending you salt for merely 3 gold per turn, is explicitly a favor from us to you, a small one, but a favor none the less. Are you okay with us expecting repayment one day.

Provided the repayment is as small as the favor, we are amenable to that. Our nation is presently struggling to support our new settlement and facing attacks from barbarians, so we offered what we felt we could, you understand. But of course in time we will be able to offer more equitable deals in trade.

Our King Ramkhamhaeng must now eat some humble pie. He has overextended the Siamese money coffers in extravagant construction projects, and now our little kingdom is in danger of facing bankruptcy. Therefore we have no choice but to make him ask - beg - for monetary help from anyone willing to invest to save our beautiful kingdom. We can offer very generous interest rates to anyone willing to help our people survive the consequences of our leader's hubris.

1. One time sum of 50 gold, at least. More would be better.
Or, an amount of (5/turn) annually, at minimum, but we acknowledge this would quickly become really expensive for both of us, and is therefore not the preferred option.
2. Honestly, pay back will take some time. Exactly how long, we can not tell. But we will strive to do it as soon as it's humanly possible.
3. The money will mainly go towards feeding and upkeep of our extensive workforce toiling to build weather-proof roads between all of our big cities. The faster they get the job done, the faster we will be able to pay the loan back, as these roads will help our internal trade routes become much more effective, generating wealth for the nation.

An open letter to Siam

One of your archer units has taken a camp whose defenders were clearly killed by Venetian archers. We are peaceful trading people who have no desire to bring destruction to either of our peoples, but regrettably this affront to Venetian honour can only be paid with blood.

Yours Sincerely; representatives of the city of Venice

**Illven** · 2017-04-14, 03:29 AM (ISO 8601)

We of the polish people condemn that Venice's first response to a perceived insult is to declare war on a friend of the Polish kingdom. Venice has not even attempted the barest means of diplomacy. They did not ask for Siam to stay away from the camp, they did not ask for re-compensation for their troops hardwork. The so called peaceful people of Venice, immediately jumped to war with a fellow nation of the world.

I am reminded of one of Pochantism's circle songs I'm paraphasing when I sign

~But still I cannot see. How the peaceful one is you.
~It seems to be that conflict is all you know.
~You think you own whatever camps you come across.
~The barbs just a dead thing you can claim.
~But if you walk the footsteps of a Siamese
~You'll learn things you never knew you never knew.
~The Siamese and the Arabians are my brothers.
~The Brazilians and the Indians my friends.

And of course also the Celts, they just didn't fit the song as well.

Turn back Venice.

Dear Venice,

You were not the only ones sending arrows to that hive of scum and villainy, even if your archers were the ones shooting the last ones.

Yes, we did use the opportunity to claim the camp's resources. We would prefer we could settle this by splitting the spoils in half. We don't want to spill any civilized blood either, unless we have no other choice. Surely this hurt "honor" of yours is not a good enough reason.
