The Asylum and the Templars had neutral relations with the LoN nations and they soon clashed with the Juice Pirates, beginning two conflicts that would evolve in the Templar and the [[Asylum War]]. The Juice Pirates considered alliances as only focused on profit and advantage instead of humanity and brotherhood, therefore they refused all sorts of ally proposals. Because they were the only large crew who openly condemned the plunders of the Templar and the Asylum, the Juice Pirates became their main target.

Meanwhile Templar maintained friendly relations with LoN and was considered an applicant member. There were a few parties who observed the processes that were outraged that a crew known for raiding, was joining an organization supposed to bring peace to the world, despite the strong links between the players. This would however ultimately prove LoN's undoing, leading to its eventual collapse.
