ok which fort are you sharing with them...are they one of the towns that is in the fort at Kearney? As you can tell that is part of my impression.

Interesting view of it. I guess something you may not of been aware of is that we had no intention to be involved with the Empire Sanaitys war. Empire had no intention of joining our fort. They wanted a Large fort and so that is the one they claimed. Honestly, weve been on a friendly standing for a long time with their town due to a few shopping trips a long time ago. They have never asked for help in their war against your towns.
Knowing this can be a stepping stone to our towns coming to a mutual agreement. Our town officially considered the NAP null and void the day we first recieved sunsets message and we came under attack. The talks back and forth really didnt help. It may be were the only ones that have talked enough to actually make this work lol.
So what to do. First things first we had a good long time of peace so we know it can be done. Its not a coincidence that the attacks and letters and additional attacks all come at the same time.
Here is the thing, we have been allied with Empire while having peace with your town so its possible to be done. When we speak of our allies wanting to be free of the assaults something you may not of known is that we are involved in 4 forts. We are not just talking about Empire by saying that. I think the fight between you and Empire is going to go on and on. Thats not what we want. But we dont want a town to dictate to us what we can or cannot do either.
Here is the solution. Im not a diplomat so i cannot say that my town would go for it but its worth a shot. We draw a cease fire and reinstate the NAP. The conditions are that our allies outside of Empire are free from reprisal against their towns/forts (which we share forts with them so it almost goes with out saying). Our fort shared with Empire stays free from assault. In return your towns stay free our duelers and your forts are free from attack from us (Empire being seperate from us). So more or less we stay out 100% of the conflict but you also stay out of our towns and forts 100%. Its a start right?
Here is the alternative (which i really dont like but its fair to say it). All of our towns/forts come under threat of attack.

“All they have to do is acknowledge our NAP to our fort and to offer no reprisal against our allies and it would be a sealed deal. Im really not sure if they are actually wanting the NAP to be extended to our ally towns or not but im not always in the loop on all of that. “
“No reprisal against our allies” – that is the crux. When Empire collasped we left the new town in peace. And tried to get a peace. All it they wanted was a cease fire to get back on their feet and start a war. How can we give this to an ally who boldly stated in their town news that their only goal was to retake the town they lost in the first war? No reprisals....are we to just allow them to constantly attack us?
“The primary goal of the attacks the other day was to do one of two things. Either get a complete acknowledgment of our towns alliances and forts in the NAP or to usher in another war”
There is the rub. We acknowledge your alliance and recognize that under your alliance you will be in a state of war with us if you are allied to Empire. Sun wanted to limit the war to things that you mutually share with Empire…the fort. She then was told no, it is all or nothing. By allowing Empire use of the fort you have made it easier for them to hit Sanity. Our original town. Now they can hit us and duck in the barracks before we can KO them. Before when they got back to Empire they were greeted by 3 or 4 duelers and KOed. Now they have a nice safe place to hide just outside of your town. By allowing them the use of your fort you have expanded the scope of the war dramatically.
So if you were us what would you do?
