It has come to our attention that our mines have managed amazing outputs this year. We have in excess of 80,000 tons of precious metals. These are uncommon and rare metals for use in electronics manufacturing and jewelry making such as gold, silver, platinum. These are usually sold at around $500,000/ton, however due to the amounts we have mined we are selling at $350,000/ton. Im sure for countries with a large military and need these metals for development of new technology and those who like to produce luxuries for their populace (and for the taxes gained from these), this is a steal.

Praetor Nilroy, Lamezville

"The Holy Empire of Mekanta will purchase 500 tons of gold and platinum. Unless you must know our reasons, we wish to keep them classified. Otherwise, we calculate our request at $175,000,000 in United States Dollar equivalent."

request pending judgment due to an unfortunate incident in which half a million spider monkeys made off with the metals. This shall be hopefully rectified soon. We have news that the monkeys were last seen trying to purchase a pent-house appartment. Our military is currently on the case and i shall endeavre to keep you up to date on the operation.

The Mekantan diplomatic AI turns around, fist clenched. "Those monkeys..."

As if in response, a very monkey-like robot walks in. "What about monkeys."

"Nothing..."

(OOC: </blatant FLCL reference>)

"The Holy Empire wishes to inform the nation of Lamezville that we understand, and we have a message for the spider monkeys in question."

"Get your paws off our metals, you damn dirty apes!"

Monkeys agreed to behave on the condition that the country increases monkey rights to that of the llama. This issue should be cleared up in no time at all and hopefully noone will get hurt. We thank you for your patience.

It's a fake HTML tag.

FLCL, or Furi Kuri, is an anime I watched a lot of. One of the running jokes in the later part of the series is a character with huge fake eyebrows. "Those eyebrows..." "What about eyebrows?"

OOC - No wonder i dain't have a clue

RP - Monkey issue resolved with only the one casualty. One unfortunate soul believed himself to be King Kong and tried to climb one of the neighboring skyscrapers to his habitat. However, a secretary on the 38th floor opened a window and knocked the monkey down. Investigations are taking place into the intentions of this but that is unimportant. 500 Tons being shipped your way.

"Funds have been transfered. Thank you."
