In October 2019, the Mafiosi were invited to attend a Diplomacy Summit being held in Casa di Cavalieri. After some debate, terms were agreed upon, and Elphaba, O'Riley, and two handpicked escorts traveled south under the watchful eye of then War Lord Teagan.
Other members of the pack set up a temporary trading camp not far from the borders, while still more choose to lurk unseen in the neutral lands beyond.
Salsola and Del Cenere have had little formal interaction, however due to the gang's population of ex-Infernians the likelihood of unresolved tension from the Salsola/Inferni war is high. (Show)

Previous Packs
Older Pack Interactions
Relationships with the packs listed below were so early on in the foundation of the Thistle Kingdom that, by present day, they have left very little impression. However, they remain integral to Salsolan history, and thus are recorded in the simplest way here.
The talk of Vinátta's heritage was what first attracted Salsola members to their borders, though it was hard at that time to miss their neighbors across the bay. They had dealt with many Salsolan members before, though most of those interactions where conducted under false aliases - the truth of what Salsola and Vinátta thought of one another is now largely lost to time. (Show)
Siv Helsi showed interest in their beliefs, and many of her family followed suit. Her cousin, Reykr Helsi and his mate Alessandra von Sin defected from Salsola to join Vinátta.
When Palaydrian Soul's grief over her mate's death pushed her to a drug addiction, she was taken advantage of by the manipulative Aedan de Valence of Salsola. He sired a child with her, though this matter never became public within Salsola.
Lochlan Stormbringer had a habit for running into trouble with Salsolan members (and sometimes their traps), though Salsolan Violeta Rose Soul and he were close friends.
Most of Salsola's original foundation came from Anathema, and for a long time it continued to attract members from this pack. The connection between Salsola and Anathema grew thin over time as the latter became increasingly unpredictable and extreme, and by the time of its conclusion Salsola had little ongoing interaction with Anathema. (Show)
Sirius and Eris, originally Anathemans, left together to create Salsola.
Alaki made babies with Sirius' personal slave, which was an insult; they did, however, work a trade out.
Axelle Napier brought gifts to Salsola on behalf of Anathema.
Believing Wraith Creed to have come from Anathema, Salvia sent her sister Artemisia to spy on the pack.
Salsola and Sapient remained relatively amicable towards one another, engaging in occasional trade right up until Sapient's disappearance from the Mainland. (Show)
Sapient approaches Salsola amicably with a small group, including their Ambassador. Despite a few peculiar incidents, a tentative line of contact is formed between the packs.
Salsola members later travel to Sapient on a trade mission, and stay for a Masquerade Ball - where they are are accused of having something to do with the murder which occurs, despite their relationship with the hosts. They assist Sapient's efforts in uncovering the truth.
While trespassing on what they assumed to still be Sapient territory, Kamari and Brocade come to the startling discovery that it had mysteriously and recently disbanded.
For a long time Salsola and Inferni were strong trade allies with multiple positive connections, as many family bloodlines and names transgressed both groups. The two packs previously shared ownership of the Bay Horses, before their relationship soured. During and following the Inferni-Salsola War there were many ferocious fights between the groups. Hostility and tension remained palpable between Salsola and Inferni up until the latter's dissolution. (Show)
Some members of Inferni participated in the Sequoia Raid, including Vesper, Zana, and Ángel.
The Boreas Conflict brought these packs closer together, as the wolves targeted them for their members' coyote heritage.
The Second Boreas Conflict saw a return of this mutual enemy. Pack relations strengthen when Salsola and Inferni band together during the war, though communications cease during a peaceful summer.
During the fall of 2017, Inferni accuses Salsola of stealing Drifter Bay horses only to be coldly turned away, causing tensions to build. Several following assaults on both Inferni and Salsolan are blamed on the other pack. After the first casualty emerges, war erupted.
Salsola had little interaction with Cour des Miracles, though did spy upon the pack previously. (Show)

However, she returns with only news of Dove's unfortunate death earlier that spring and nothing helpful about the missing child of the Crone.
Using this intel, O'Riley and Kamari set out to Cour des Miracles to seek out information on behalf of Loki Helsi regarding his son that went missing/was pronounced dead during the Infernian-Salsolan war.
Spy Kamariconfirms that Saga is a member of MV, as well as that MV actively trades with CdC, and it is likely that they are "friends" with one another given that Saga's wording and business out to the pack in the first place.
Working under an alias to protect her anonymity, Helena trades with Mistwalker Ezra Vahn for a rare supply of live bees. It is only the first of a number of trades they undertake, though Ezra has yet to realize he is trading with a Salsolan.
Salsola has had minor interaction with the Troupe thus far, and is currently neutral toward it. (Show)
Troupe member Mateo Salcedo trespasses on Salsolan land, however the drop of his surname (familiar to Salsola) causes Kamari to try to weasel more information out of him - before Idrieus chases the "two loners" off.
Upon members of the Troupe opening up La Estrella Roja, there have been multiple neutral-positive encounters between disguised Salsolans and Troupe members.
