You are in a powerful situation in terms of trade, but you find youself unable to go outside of the Inner Sea, as Umbar controls the Southern Passage. We will graciously allow you and your trading ships to pass through, as a gesture of friendship. A whole new market shall be opened to you and your merchants! I understand it that you wish to establish settelments in East Harad. I think that this is good, but in order to prevent conflicts between our two peoples, we must set spheres of control so we may partition Harad as we wish."
