"Don't be ridiculous, these resources are priceless." The Astromind glared at the Esoterist. "I know you have no care for non-esoteric resources, but we need iron and other metals for our civilization, too. Our civilization relies more on non-essoteric matter on a day-to-day basis for many of the most basic tasks that we engage in. We can't allow our civilization to be denied its rightful share of our solar system."
The Esoterist had to admit that the man had a point. "…The Emperor of Harmony and the other leaders of human civilization will definitely have to make a decision on the matter."
"Other?" the Astromind glared at him. "You are a leader of human civilization as well, you know? You can't just ignore the matter and delegate to the morons that are the ruling class of our civilization."
