Message: <blockquote data-quote="Edena_of_Neith" data-source="post: 1952113" data-attributes="member: 2020">TO AIRWHALE  Eclavdra answers softly to Ranzwick via her Magic Mirror:  Well met, your Lordship.  The drow send their greetings to the World of Ginsel.  We would be honored if you would open diplomatic relations with us.  We are in a situation where your goods and services are greatly needed indeed, and we have the adamantite to pay for goods.  The yuan-ti will grant welcome to your Spelljammers, and we will commence trade in the capital city of the yuan-ti in Hempmonaland.  Your diplomats will be established in luxurious quarters in the yuan-ti city, and accorded every luxury.  Your traders will be respected and their safety and rights ensured.    We believe the Whispered One will return for the sad reason that all our divinations and portents point to it.  We have witnessed his return in scryings of the future, and have had confirmation of it in Communes with Lolth, prior to the closing of the Crystal Sphere.  So yes, he is coming.  However, we will be ready for him.  We presume that other powers of Greyspace, in their wisdom, will put aside their quarrels and also be ready.  If not ... they are not following the path of wisdom.  It will be a pleasure doing business with you, your Lordship.   (Eclavdra curtsies and bows her head, her long white hair spilling down over her face.)  Eclavdra confers with the Lord of the Yuan-Ti, a longtime ally, and the Yuan-Ti make good on their word, opening their city, and preparing a Spaceport for incoming Spelljammers.   TO ALL:  The drow invite all the diplomats sent to the Erelhi-Cinlu (and just sent home) to come to the capital city of the Yuan-Ti Empire down in Hempmonaland.  The yuan-ti capital city will be the new capital for the drow, as well as for the yuan-ti.  The drow state all diplomats, ambassadors, and merchants coming there will receive the proper treatment and protection they are entitled to, and that the yuan-ti will see to their needs.  The drow welcome trade:  the drow state they have plenty of adamantite to trade for goods of various kinds.  Of course, the drow expect to be paid FAIRLY for their adamantite, and adamantite is very expensive metal, but that's just a normal matter of trade.  The drow state diplomats and traders cannot enter the Great City because of the situation there.  However, they will have free run of the yuan-ti empire.  And the yuan-ti will respect this (the Lord of the Yuan-Ti will enforce this, working with Eclavdras and her people.)  Free travel, via Gates, is offered to any diplomats and traders wishing to come to the yuan-ti capital city.  Accommodations will be set up, and visitors will have luxurious places to stay (if there is one thing the yuan-ti are good for, its' setting up grandeur and splendor - their empire is very much like a kind of decayed Rome.)</blockquote>
