We have little interest in the intricacies of your internal disputes, but be warned, this act of defiance carries severe consequences._ _We demand, without question, that you swiftly rectify this breach of trust. Reclaim the goods entrusted to your care and deliver them promptly to the predetermined destination. Failure to do so shall invoke our unequivocal wrath._ _Do not allow the intoxication of mutiny to cloud your judgment or erase the memory of our past benevolence. It was our intervention that orchestrated your little coup, and bestowed upon you the spoils of power and control. We hold the strings of fate in our grasp, and should you dare sever the threads of our cooperation, we shall weave a new tapestry with more compliant hands. [[Lazruk]]'s fate can easily be made your own. Remember that when you decide upon your next course of action._ _Let this message serve as a stark reminder of the precariousness of your current situation. Our reach extends far beyond the confines of your vessel, and our influence can shape the tides of fortune. Abandon our pact, and you shall find yourselves cast adrift, bereft of our favor and protection._ _The hourglass of opportunity is dwindling, and the sands of mercy are running thin. We expect swift action, a restitution of our stolen property, and no further disruptions to our arrangement. Fail us, and we shall find others who are more deserving of the rewards and privileges you currently enjoy._ _Ensure that the next word we receive speaks of the triumphant return of our goods, or face the consequences of your own making._ _With measured anticipation."_
