Sinjir finds he's rather keen on being praised, himself. Feels good to play this kind of game on behalf of something he doesn't hate.
He just smiles. "I'm authorized to propose mutual non-aggression," he says. "The New Republic's sole condition is that the worlds that you claim have some way of choosing, publicly, whether they join the Republic or not."
This was Sinjir's idea -- this condition. Several people strenuously argued against fracturing the Republic, or some other such nonsense. Others made noises about conspiring with criminals.
"So here's hoping you don't rig the decision-making process," he continues. "I wonder -- will you let pride win out, and give it an honest go? Do you want the people there to choose you?"
