So let me guess.

There was a deal struck…but those in power refused (power/WMDs)

Backdoor…there were some who didn't refuse

We planned to 'take it back', and they would eventually help us get on the right footing given certain parts of the backdoor deal were honored.

Will they help us progress in energy?

Will they help us leave?

Difference between them and those from the Warp SWR?

Why are 'they' infatuated with the Warp?
