Well, the background is simply this: Slythe and the FHTC have been doing their best to make a profit for a while now, and they make it any way they can. Usually they trade with you very rarely, only some fruit you can only get on the mainland thus far. Till now, they have never been of much interest to KT. Until now. Now you know that 80% of what the FHTC does is illegal. They sell tropical drugs, Moredain and Limwaith slaves, hunt endangered animals unscrupulously, steal priceless artifacts from others, rob from ancient temples and tombs, and they even carry out assassinations. You name it, they'll get it for a price. And what's worse? They have a near-total monopoly over all trading from the Tauredain. Their economy is very nearly totally dependant upon Slythe. And she's clever. She purposefully built a house of cards. Remove a few pieces, it falls apart. And if it falls apart, the Tauredain suffer. So the Tauredain, whenever there's a problem (which there almost never is), bail them out.
