The King was surprised by the directness from the Chancellor, but he wasn't surprised. After all the Stoinians had already made a draft before leaving. The Stoinians were interested in joint defensive pact with the Ryccians to protect Mankind, however he wasn't sure if the Ryccians would accept. However he would give it a try, just to realise if oposition was really that strong. The King took one of his datapads and gave it to the Ryccian Chancellor. On it the Ryccian Chancellor could see the whole proposed NAP between the two nations. It described that no military vessel may encroach in the borders of one nation without specific authorisation otherwise it will be seen as an act of disolvement for the NAP. It also consisted specific Stoinian Military channel to alert if Ryccian ships were nearby for any reason. Of course it stated that both parties have no intention to wage war against one another.

"You see, our governmental system is a bit more complicated. On the matter of military affairs I have full jurisdiction. But on matters of commerce the Chancelor will have to sign as the people have chosen to be their representative in these matters. So let us first focus on my jurisdiction. As you see, we already have a proposal for a Non Aggression Pact with you as we wish no war between our Terran Brethren. We have an old saying which perfectly describes us: Stoinian at heart; Terran by blood. We have no wish to spill any Terran blood between our two nations. We have no intention of harming our relations, on the contrary, we would like to further develop them. I am sure our Chancellor will give you the economic details and we will come to an agreement. But before we sign the Non Aggression Pact, I do have one more proposal. We Stoinians are ready to help protect our Ryccian Brethren and we are prepared to sign a Defensive Pact in which each faction is obligated to help another nation if that said nation is attacked by other forces if the attacked nation requests it. It would only be the right thing to do, because if the Ryccian Empire is attacked there will be without a doubt Stoinian volunteers eager to help our Ryccian Brethren. Would the Ryccian people be interested in such an agreement?"
