Dear DT,
Yes, the Iroquois are willing to talk. They have some fine goods, as well as She-Who-Tracks, they'd be willing to put on the trade blanket. And they are very interested in the offer I made.
We'll talk more of this.
But, I'm a bit puzzled. Is there an intra-trade war starting to simmer? The Canadian Trader wants MY Delftware and the French Trader wants MY Belgian Chocolat? What is this? Have you been trading behind my back?
As for the English Trader; I don't care how she drinks her tea as long as she can locate some Staffordshire Enamel Patch Boxes!
Glad you made it safely home. The Atlantic has been infested with English pirate ships of late (though they seem particularly fond of Spanish merchant vessels).
Sincerely,
E. Lane
