Negotiations ended... for now?

We stay on Methel as it's obviously a hot spot of activity:

"A spokesman of Llalarkno Country Estates announced today that all negotiations with Kotzash Mutual on Dar Sai have been put on hold. No reason was given other than that Llalarkno Country Estates felt that the initial 'productive and professional atmosphere' had seem to disappear. Kotzash was not prepared to comment."
