On Peaceful Relations [VIDEO]

[onlytwoexpressions]

Greetings former crewmembers of the Moira. This is Ultra Magnus, Formerly Duly Appointed Enforcer of the Tyrest Accord.

I am aware that the last two months have been rather trying, and I would like to thank everyone for remaining on the best behavior. Having come into contact with the Savrii, I felt that perhaps it might be best to offer up a 'crash course' on beginning peaceful and amicable relations with new races and species of newly discovered worlds.

Now, I'm aware that many of you may find a 'lecture' to be unwarranted. And to that, I say I strongly disagree.

I apologize for the strong language. But this is of utmost importance.

On that note, I have compiled a seminar that I hope that many, if not all, of you will attend. It will last a paltry ten hours, but I promise you the time will positively fly. Especially when we get into the segment about 'recognizing basic sentient rights.'

I don't wish to ruin anything, but at the risk of spoiling the fun, I'd like to say that I purposefully left two whole hours open during that segment for round table discussion.

It's a little unorthodox but I've been told I need to loosen up.

For those still waffling on whether or not you should attend, and for the life of me I can't understand why you would, I offer a preview:

Now, the first step to beginning a peaceful and amicable relationship with a race one has never encountered before is to employ the use of the 'Universal greeting.' I'm sure you know what it is, but for those who don't repeat after me:

BAH WEEP GRANNAH WEEP NINNI BONG.

[He waits for the repeat, then continues.]

If you'd like to find out what to do next, I strongly urge you to attend my seminar.
