Edict 1SZ-10-03

To the Helan, 

''Take note that you are arriving in the Capital with our welcome, as the Emperor of the Wei Empire, the Son of Heaven. We have graciously extended to you this welcome, in the hope that you will return it with your own good disposition and behaviour, and that the Wei Empire and Helan should both profit from this encounter. ''

''We have noted that you requested a permanent place to stay within the Wei Empire, wherein you can base your trade with us. As a sign of goodwill, we will grant you this request. The Leopard Stone Village is on the south of the Capital, outside its walls; it has not been inhabited in a while, but the houses have been cleaned. ''

''We shall allow your men to settle in the Leopard Stone Village, and to enter the Capital with passes to show the guards. You will also have access to the docks, from which you can direct your efforts at commerce.''

''Obey our laws and rules, and conduct yourselves well, and you will be rewarded with wealth and our goodwill. But place yourselves against the generous stipulations we have set down, and we will not hesitate to enforce the law upon you. ''
