The Kingdom of Persia hereby announces that her way forward to her rightful place in history cannot be realized under the current Basileios of the Arche Seleukeia. We approach Pharaoh Aratos and the Strategos from Galatia in friendship, and indeed will offer our friendship to the next Basileios of Seleukeia, whom I understand to be a great warrior and a true statesman besides. We have been left to our own devices, so we do not see the need to bend the knee to a King not of our people who will not defend us. We hereby offer the flower of our military might to assist the mighty Pharaoh and his men to retake the Arche for its people, however, the Kingdom of Persia shall find her own path to the greatness she once possessed. Unlike the previous Achaemenid kings, we bear the Hellenes no rancor, and would gladly offer our hand in friendship, that we may cooperate as peace loving nations do and pursue prosperity for our respective peoples.

Sincerely, Shahanshah Phanias I of Parthava
