Ok so I am trying to think of ways Tobias can act as this bridge.  Or more specifically, reasons why he is able to.  With his newfound moral compass I don't see him being nearly as wealthy as Analdrun.  Seeing as Tobias would oppose the slave trade.  And he doesn't have the corporate backing like Lokyan.  So he probably wouldn't have as many ships or as much firepower as either of the two.  Which begs the question of how he just didn't get obliterated when the two started fighting?  Or why doesn't one of them just take him out?  So the only thing I could come up with was if he had a trump card, some sort of deterrent to keep the two from continuing their war.  Which, immediately brings weapons of mass destruction, or maybe a single heavy cruiser or something along those lines into mind.  I don't know.  This is just me shooting off some ideas.  Anyone see what I'm getting at?  Tobias needs to pose enough of a threat to keep the two at peace, while simultaneously actually being weaker than either of the two forces.
