Help!! I am the Ambasador of All Things Ambassadory of the Borderlands of Pret. Our beutifal forests have been set on fire by an secret operative, but we are unsure of what nation she was sent from. We are asking for any help you can give. Help discovering the county who started this is wanted. We will also need money and manpower to help extinguish the fires, before our beloved mink population is destroyed. Please, please send any help you can. Our nation would be forever indebted to you. Our nation is begging you, please, please help!!

Do you want our fleet of water bombers to help?
We can only help if you have a lake or sea to collect water from.

OOC: sorry about that stement before.
IC: the nation of Ssakura would be happy to help, if you could please tell me where your nation is located. It's sort of hard to help if your nation is in a system that takes two eeks to get two. IF your nations on Earth, help will arrive in 15 minutes, because we have not yet transfered to our new planet.

We are sending in a team of 10,000 firefighters who specialise in forest fires. They are bringing with them fifty magnetic levitation based water bombers. Hopefully this will turn the tide of your battle to save your forests.

The Empire of Japany is thanked for their generosity. Ssakura is also thanked for their generosity, but we resent your comment about our noobish ways.

All your help is thanked, but it seems the fire is winning the battle, if no more help arrives, I am afraid we will have to evacuate citizens.

My apology. We'e assuming that you're located on Earth, and about 5% of our police/firefighting force is on it's way. That totals about 10,000 men. The .5 million that we donated earlier should be used to contain the fire until our arrival.

he troops will arrive by Helicopter in about 15 minutes.

The Great Empire of Dauragon is sorry to see this incident happen in Pret country but we cannot offer any help at the moment.

If this is still an issue that needs to be addressed, we can send 2 arial recon aircraft to go in and survey the damages, along with first aid relief if needed. I have deployed a team of 5,000 airborn rangers, who speacailize in firefighting. I can also send in a team of 50 FBI, and 20 CIA agents to help capture the person(s) responsible for this action. This may help you very well, as we are well known for law and order.

To the people of Pret,

Unfortunately our nation did not have the manpower nor the resources to send to your country to help in this unfortunate incident but in order to show our support to the Pretorian people we will send 2 million Sinaloan Palm trees to help with the deforestation this tragedy caused.

We hope this helps somehow to make things back to normal in the area affected. Please express our condolences to the families of the victims.

Regards,
