The proud and honorable nation of Abyssia is utterly appaled by the base insinuations made by the Pythian government about our totally imagined practices of human sacrifice and/or demontrafficing! Abyssia's strength is fuelled by the fire flowing through every citizen's veins, not by the fire flowing out of those veins! (Actually, my plans to start setting up a blood economy were rudely interrupted by a certain ambitious ruler starting a war HE CAN'T WIN!!!!
)
And also: Cool, you're already starting to recognize the strength of fire. Soon you'll reach total enlightenment - at the stake too.
