There can be nothing more perfect than that observation. The answer to anyone wondering why the western realms always must pile on their opponents in ridiculous numbers is that, obviously, they need to. Observe the decline to Talerium's efficacy. I remember a day when they marched as far as Wayburg and beyond with an army of twenty thousand. Now they seem to struggle with raising ten-thousand. Precisely the same can be said of Darka. The reason is obvious. Their nobles know they are only fighting the wars others. They see that it is always on behalf of the same party and realize, if only subconsciously, that they are servants and another, foreign people their master. Their spirits wilt in a life without risk, without freedom, without glory, without dignity. They have no reason to fight. They are reduced to mindless drones serving the tyrant of an endless swarm of men and lands without virtue. I say to you I know this because I lived through it myself. All going back to prove the Cagilan Empire is but a paper lion. I wonder what would happen if the Cagilan Empire fought it's own war for once? It's a stupid question, of course, because it is impossible to answer. That will never happen. - Rhys |
