"Well done, you walked into a living fortress. Smart. What do you want?"
"This fortress is sovereign territory of the Skakdish Hordes and the Foros Confederacy. We wish to know why you have destroyed our allies, and what you hope to achieve. I also point out that there is a Forosian Security Compound less than a mile from here. We have a few dozen warships ready for deployment if it comes to that."

"The Skakdi ran away a while ago. One turned up to get some tech, and we just let him out again. We have not destroyed your ally."
Several alterations are made to the quick-growing seeds.

"Nonetheless, the Foros Confederacy owns this stronghold."
"You didn't leave anyone to guard this place. Finders keepers. Now get out, before things escalate"
"We left the Skakdi. We will leave if you so wish it. But I must warn you, once we walk out of those doors, the Forosian Security Services will spare no effort in removing you from this place, or turning it to slag in the process. However, as long as we stand here, an agreement can be reached. So I leave it to you; do we stay, or to we go?"

"I'm happy to reach an agreement. What are your terms?"
"We have no reason to look for terms. It would be much more agreeable and simple for us to return with a fleet and bombard you from the sky. But we are willing to treat with you if you present acceptable terms yourself."

"In 4 days, i'll clear out of the stronghold. You can have the stronghold, I have the tech. Deal?"

"The stronghold contains no tech as it was a fortress owned by violent primitives."
After a few days, a massive black monolith flies out of the Stronghold, going through the floor of the fortress before going through the dome, leaving the centre of the fortress a massive hole. A sign on the door says "All yours!". The Stronghold is stripped bare of technology except for the inlaid defences.
