The near-future. Since our return from Faerie I have been busy seeing to important details. In particular, our defense in the event of governmental interference.
Let me cut to the point. You have an army, I have munitions. I believe we should talk.
I have a kingdom, not just an army. Allow me to be entirely clear: Anything that could potentially cause scandal is not an option. Anything that could be taken as an imminent threat of war by the Sea Kingdoms is not an option. Any and all military expenditures must be conducted through the proper legal and ethical channels and approved in advance by my budget committee. We do this correctly, or not at all.
My company is privately owned, I can sell to whomever I choose. I'd ask if your kingdom has received UN recognition but I doubt that would occur. You know they'll eventually turn on us, otherwise you never would have conscripted that force of yours to begin with. And let's be honest, no matter how enthusiastic or well-trained they may be, professional armed forces would mow them down.
Pardon, I didn't call you up to discuss that. Are you interested in acquiring more up-to-date weaponry?
