With the recent news coming from Meriath regarding the capture of two fishermen who ventured into foreign territory, Royal Councilor Mondragon II has called for a final peace between the mainland and Meriath. Royal Councilor Mondragon II has called for the release of the fishermen immediately to help ease the current tensions. To balance demands set by Egelion and Meriath, there are talks at the IDE that involve inviting the mainland government to Altea and negotiate a final peace. This development comes after the IEI (Institute of Egelian Intelligence) sent a report to the Royal Council that contained information about the status of the mainland's government. The report claimed that the state's infrastructure, economy, and systems are beginning to collapse, despite puerile funding efforts by foreign states.

Royal Councilor Mondragon II stated that this would be the ideal situation to end the fascist government in Rildanor and begin a long road of reconciliation between both states. The IDE has begun to meet with diplomats in Meriath to discuss potential reunification and what steps it would take to fully flush out the malignant ideology from the south Seleyan state. Members at the Real Academia have begun to lobby the Royal Councilor for an "educational reconfiguration" of Rildanor's citizens and shy them away from the foundations of alt-right ideology. Other advisors at the IDE have called for the drafting of a new constitution outlawing right-wing ideologies all-together. Regardless of the expected outcome, Mondragon II is keen on hosting both governments in Altea to discuss all options. 

With representatives from Meriath and Rildanor in Altea, Mondragon is hoping to finally end hostilities and calm the situation in Seleya. "It is difficult to guarantee the safety of trade and passenger ships in this area with such a hostile government in place. We hope that our excellent leaders here in Altea can negotiate a new beginning for Rildanor. From this point, we've seen that our strategy of international isolation and embargo on Rildanor has proved costly for them. Their people are ready for change and reform. We can offer that for Rildanor, but we can also offer national reconciliation as well. They are in no position to call the shots here. It is time to release those two fishermen, but to also engage in a process that is much larger than all of them. We are ready to facilitate and delegate a new future for Rildanor."
