: What was this obscure announcement about YET another trader, and one from so far as the Ottoman Empire of the Turks? Where is this person? Was it some form of a ruse to distract us from some other nefarious goings-on, or was there indeed a new trader? Perhaps he was scalped along the way? Or perhaps simply he is up to his ears in trade and has not yet made it to Mohicanland? Who can say?

Dear Yengeese Trader,
We too have heard of the Ottomani. It would appear this Turk-is-delighted in the mercantile prospects of Mohicanland. But, we will drive this easterner back to the sea before we allow yet another competitor into our frontier haven. Be gone, Turkish Trader, wherever you are! (Though we may be interested in some negotiations over silk and taffy before you depart.)
English One, any word on our tea shipment?
Sincerely, though threateningly,
The Mohicanland Traders Guild
