To Hunger without Thought, Aguadillas, Lord of R'lyeh
The Great Jörmundgandr, God of Primodial Waters, welcomes the coming of the mind lords. He has asked me to make His thought intelligible to your own intermediaries, so that mutual understanding between our races can be reached. Surely two wise races as old as the oceans and the mountains of this world can find a common ground, whatever metaphysical differences they may have.
In this perspective, my Master wishes to recognize the dominion of Aguadillas over all things oceanic. This means that the Agarthans, who are so famous amphibians, will be happy enough with dwelling on dry land and the shallow waters beside our temple. Your captains will have noticed that our main temple has its pillars diving deep into the Sea of Plenty. Grottoes and cavern networks directly connected to the Hall of the God of Primordial Waters Himself are connected to this Sea. This is why this single sea, of such mystical signification - and, excuse us of such trival considerations, security implications, when you think that anyone can reach our Lord's Hall from the sea bed - needs to remain under Agarthan direct control.
We are happy with letting your troops pass by the sea for the time being. Our underwater administrators will present themselves to operate the transfer of authority as soon as you notify us. We are also ready to open negotiations for a reasonable compensation of your "right of first conquest" over this little sea. Finally, our Lord is willing to extend further friendly relations if you wish to consider yourself a friend of the Oracles.
