Ethereal Negotiations

The Ethereal Negotiations is another term for a bidding war that took place between the Congregation of the Silver Hand and the Dominion of the Sun over a large cache of particularily devasting explosives that could prove useful in the seige of Halaa.

The Talks
The negotations opened with bidding and offers from the factions representatives. Mr. Cidro Commons and Magister Syriliana were the respective negotiators for the Alliance and Horde in the endeavor and both began with promises of riches and gold for the elusive alien traders.

Not content with gold, the would be purchasers attempted to offer their trust and alliance to the traders but the Ethereal Trade Master Shadrek showed little interest in the promises of the two groups. Instead Shadrek informed them that he would be willing to trade the highly effective X39 explosives in exchange for controlled magics in physical form. Taking a special interest in the fel magics of the elves, the Ethereal eventually concluded a deal with the Sin'dorei for them to deliver a large shipmet of the magical fel crystals located throughout Quel'Thalas.

As a result, the Sin'dorei party left the talks with promises from the Ethereals to deliver the explosives by the next day.
