[[OOC: This thread no longer applies as Sann is now future-tech]]
It was cold day over the Sannae Plains as dawn rose over the grassy plains of the Nomadic Republic. Government Command Grail hissed over the tall grass, followed by the influential Ys Tribe, with whom they were discussing one of the medical developments made a few months ago - in this case, Serum 7-HIV-FC, the seventh HIV serum and the Final Cure.
Lady Sann Ayssrin leaned back in her seat as she spoke to Lord Ys Innan across Grail's conference table (one designed to fit into the wall, as with all Sannae furnishings). Also seated at the table was Seneschal Io Unys, Purifier Je Kannin and Clan-Heir Ys Innui.
The Lady of Sann spoke first, her voice soft and calm.
"Lord Ys, what is your opinion on an international stance for the HIV-FC?"
"My Lady, I think that we should with-hold it for a longer period...while it would be gratefully accepted and eagerly bought I feel that we could use it to greater purposes within the Nomadic Republic itself."
"But surely, my Lord, you would noy deny the serum to those who do not live within our Republic - those who are dying of AIDS caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus"
"The decision, as always, rests with you, my Lady of Sann. It is simply my opinion that a blatant declaration of this cure could cause a mass exodus toward our own lands, which would result in the desecration that we have so long worked to avoid."
It was at this point that the Purifier, head of the Office of Medecine, spoke.
"Would not a balanced viewpoint function better? Surely if we sent quiet messages to national leaders they could express their own interest. If they decide to attack us for the serum there are always the bio-weapons. We have more deadly mutation strains than I could easily count. If that does not stop them, it is a simple matter to destroy or effectively hide the cures in our possession - all of them."
There was a short pause at this uncharacteristically long speech from the Purifier, before the Lady of Sann spoke again.
"An excellent idea, my friend, thoughts?"
The suggestion passed unanimously by those at the table, and was agreed by an almost unanimous vote by the Council of Clans.
Later that day discreet messages were sent to various governments, offering the services of Sannae medical staff as well as the HIV-FC serum.
