[Tuidjy]

Could you please point out where we have have called you treacherous
or accused you of lying or breaking an agreement? Our only accusation
against you has been that while you were supposed to be helping us,
you were effecting a domain push in our east. The ultimatum did not
call for surrendering any provinces, but only to destroy the temples
that were destroying our income.

And do not forget that this ultimatum came only after Man stated that
you guys were allied and coming after me. Even then, we did not attack.
We did not even invade you until you started a scorched earth policy
against the population in our northern provinces, as opposed to honorably
fighting on the front lines. As for honorable commanders like your
prophet, it is with regret that we saw him fall in the last major
battle. If only the sauromancers had held their fire until our
enchanter had reached out to him...

As for who will stop whom, this remains to be seen. Our empire is
indeed weakened after fighting two exhausting wars and Man is fresh
and fat on unearned spoils of war. But my diseased and exhausted
armies have not lost an engagement yet, and I do not see Man looking
for an army clash either. All I see is cowardly hordes attacking
undefended provinces.
