We do not remember such a formal agreement. Could you give us prove for its existence We would surely hold to it.
(I mean this. We did some diplomatic talking ingame, but I can't remember such a pact, and cannot look it up. Perhaps you could load an old turn, and make a screenshot.)

We agree, but helping Ermor was always Our first choice. We should have done so long ago. Better late than never.

At least We have the decency to declare formal war. An honor Ermor never received from both of you.

Do not pretend to understand the nature of Jotun diplomacy. We sent a formal declaration of war to Ermor. We tied it to a javelin and hurled it at their vestals during the 18th month. We cannot speak for Tien for obvious reasons, but given their fair and forthright dealings we are sure they acted with as much honor as Ermor was due.

Attached is the screenshot of a message sent by your envoy at the start of the second year (turn 24). If you check your records from the following month, you will find our acceptance of your NAP, your friendship and your support for T'ien Ch'i and Jotunheim's war against Ermor.

Reconciling the contents of that message with your recent declarations is... difficult.

Alright, job's done and we can go back to a shorter hosting schedule now. Thanks to all of you for your patience with this situation.

OK, i am going to set the game to host in 48 hours.

[Morla]

Sorry for my late turn, crazy week.

The people of Ulm, as the paragon of balance ,wants to announce that further grow in power from the nation of man at the expence of T'ien Ch'i it´s a threat to us all.

If the nation of Man only wants to help the return of Ermor the nation of Ulm will not interfere, but if the real intentions from Man is to conquer T'ien Ch'i Ulm will cancel the NAP that bound our nations.

We greet our friends from Ulm.
And we do respect their wishes and concerns.
So the nation of Man declares the southern river as its eastern border in the south. Man will not claim ownership to any province currently in possession of T'ien Ch'i. Those agreements shall hold until otherwise agreed upon with the nation of Ulm.
However we are at war with T'ien Ch'i, and we will seize their provinces if possible. But we will leave these provinces the latest after the war is over. If it is possible for Ermor to take them, earlier.
Should the people of Ulm feel our agreements violated in the future, we ask them to communicate with us, before taking rash actions. We think everything can be settled.
Furthermore the nation of Man wishes to express that it's goal of this war is not primarily to destroy T'ien Ch'i. However our allies may have a different view to this topic.

All these agreements do not concern Jotun provinces, nor does Man restrict itself on the central island further than past agreements between Ulm and Man dictate.

We're probably going to need a timer pause/extension for the thanksgiving holidays.
