The Abwehran Ambassador politely took the documents and began to scan them over, stating with the Rights of Early Contact. It would take a few silent moments before she would hand it over to the rough Warrant Officer beside her. "What do you think," she asked in Abwehran.
"I think it's just common sense," the larger Abwehran spat in his native tongue before handing it back. But Adala was already working on the IAA document. Over five minutes would pass before the Ambassador would speak once more in Trade.
"The Rights of Early Contact is acceptable and will be followed by our nation," she replied as she took her datapad and scanned the document a few times to copy and digitize it. "I'll be sure to send it whenever we get back to our vessel. But there are a few matters concerning the Intergalactic Armistice Agreement," she began as she flipped through the Agreement and pointed to a few sections.
"I shall begin with Section 3 of the IAA dealing with Yamataian expansion east of its capital world. Though I have no idea what your plans are for expansion in that direction, I would like to inform you that we too have plans in that area." she stated as she nodded to Gunter.
Pulling out his datapad, the surly Warrant Officer tapped a few times and pushed the device towards the Yamataian Ambassador. "As you can see Frau Mersina, our
General Expansion Area encompasses the area to your east." the Duchy Heiress explained as the Yamataian would find a Two-Dimensional Star Chart on the datapad's FED screen. The chart would point out the four Abwehran colonies to Yamatai's North-East border and three systems that were named, but didn't hold flags on them.
"From what I've been told, the Weltraumflotte will have launched exploration and survey missions to the three named systems along the Two-Jaspis Spaceway in order to claim them in the name of the Abwehran Star Empire and solidify the trade route to our colonies," Adala explained calmly. "But your expansion into the East would hinder our expansion. So I would like to make an amendment to Section 3, if you would permit me. The Abwehran Star Empire will expand North, North-East, and East from origin of our home system, Jaspis. We will not expand any more west past that black hole to the north-west of Himmel der Bergleute and will not commit any belligerent movements towards or into Yamataian Space." the Ambassador promised and awaited the Mersina's answer.
