Iriaen,

Noble as the panda may be, your claim does not hold water. Unless
'undeserved masters' equates to 'anyone not perverse enough to raise a
corpse from death', at least.

Your Empire's doctrine indeed may prove the threatening of endangerment
by the desirability of the species of panda. However, you disgrace the
nature of Conservation by alotting a self-serving pricetag on the
creature, thus negating any belief of your altruistic ways, o' pure and
holy evangelist that you are.

The animals of this earth, provided you are not using a foul lasso to
subdue it, make the conscious effort to go with their new masters. To
claim dominion over a wild, free creature is to prove you are naught but
a showy, crass egotist with his own matters on his mind.

And, do not even consider threatening a petty war with your rebuttal,
even if it is the only means to which your bloodline solves their
issues. Your self-serving statements and proclamations are not honored.

In service always,

Lavinia Swiftpaw
