By now, you may have noticed some among your number missing. I can assure you they are being well taken care of with what supplies we have in this time of war.

Our struggle here is drawing to a close. I presume both sides would like to avoid further loss of life. The Empire-- the Regency, as you call us-- certainly would. I myself grow weary of slaughter, especially this senseless murder of my soldiers.

This can be ended. I do not have the credentials necessary to surrender. You do. Call off this useless struggle. Your people will be returned to you.

Of course, if you have questions, I beg you to ask them while we have the time. This transference into your network will not last for long.

If they wanted us all dead, they've had at least half a dozen better opportunities to do it. Something else is going on here. Don't give up your position.

I don't want to. Just not really sure if that ever counts for much.

I wonder why they don't want to kill us, what are they afraid of losing? What are they hoping to gain, us at each other's throats?

[mylawn]

Everything counts for something. Sit tight. We'll be there soon.

They want us to think they have the upper hand. The fact that they're negotiating with us means we might still have some leverage.

[circumspector]

We need ammo and rations. Whatever you can bring.

I'll see what I can get out of him, in the mean time. If were all bluffing, someone's got to have a tell first.

[mylawn]

Be careful. Don't overplay your hand trying to make him show his.

[circumspector]

Guess that means no threatening him back, huh?

[mylawn]

Not sure we're in a position to do so.

[circumspector]

I'll try not to bite.
