Decision Time...

(Hannibal insists the Undead will attack and gives Thrydwulf the choice of which city they will attack...such a nice man that Hannibal)

Report from Hannibal
Jeeze, the City of Heen is even more lightly guarded than the other cities we sacked.

A promise is a promise, at any rate. Your Queen is weak, and the corruption is beginning to immobilize her...stop living in her shadow, and do the right thing: Oust her of a position she is no longer fit to carry and revoke her citizenship in any manner you desire: deportation, or execution. She will only lead your people to death and ruin at this pace.

This is a chance for you to do the right thing. The Cities of Heen will be spared for the time being, but not indefinately. If, in fact, your people are truely as committed to your Queen as you suggest even though she is wrong, they will all be wiped out...every single last one of them.

Live with your Honour, regardless of what you choose, and stand firmly behind your decision with your life--but do not forget that your decision also happens to impact thousands of other lives that look to you for guidance. For the sake of humanity, be 100% sure about this decision. Vicious can raise 1200 undead soldiers where he is, and single-handedly wipe out your city. Or my Summoner can. Either way, one of your cities will be laid to ruin this week if you make the wrong choice. Then we will probably leave you to your fates, and wipe you out once the Daemons are defeated if by some chance, you manage to survive on your own.

We don't forgive mistakes, we offer redemption instead. Here is a shot at redemption, earn your right to exist, and show your strength. Bask in weakness, and you are already history...I urge you to speak with your people in private audiences, so they may be open and honest with you, without fear of retaliation for their true opinions and feelings on this matter.

Contact me once you have done the wise thing and consulted your realm's elders, etc...since your Queen has delegated her authority to you anyway, as I knew she would, such corruption only leads to weakness in front of truth, and an Undead commander is one of the highest truths humans will get to see.
