>>41047775I'm ready to talk about this!!! The CIO would gladly help as it would see this as a great opportunity to open new markets for them.
I think a deal would look something like this.
>Gold, Trade Rights, and Port of Call for the CIO in Rumina.>CIO helps out as much as they can to get your people to Amemichaelia and provide supplies.I would assume this is the CIO's first big break, and they see it ulteriorly as that. You can decide how much of a role they play, but I will state that they are still rather young but are growing rich with the trans-heavenly sea and Kizuna sea trade that just opened up around 150 years before. The CIO also is undergoing a redesign where they aren't the "Big Bad" they used to be.
On another note, Hoshi, I am still totally unsure how we are fighting at such distances without me (or you) at least having a base on an island closer, or something else. I thought about colonialism as a reason with failed colonies but that doesn't seem like it will fly in the thread despite the potential. Do you have any ideas?
