Ancalagon nods, and says, "Yes, an alliance between the two of us will suffice for the moment, and if either of us wish to change that, I will be receptive as to hearing why before breaking it. I hope to eventually deal with the Linnorm, but that will not be for a long while, I suspect. Perhaps instead of relying upon me to remember to pass on information, you could station someone in my base, as a sort of diplomat, to keep us both informed of the problems going on in eitehr area?<br/><br/>My agreement with the Yuan-ti was for mutual protection, suppling a small number of troops in case of problems, to either party. Would you be interested in the same agreement, as well as allowing for merchants to freely pass? Trade is good for all parties involved, as it makes going to war with the other a bit less likely, especially if the troops know the people on the other side as friends and allies."
