[Tuidjy]

Considering the outcome of the last dozen confrontations, we can only assume that
by "fair and open" "combat of armies", you mean that only living, human troops and
holy magic will be allowed.

This places us at quite the disadvantage, as nearly all of our priests are
proficient in some other magic discipline, but we will, of course, accept. Our
faith will see us through any difficulties.

We suggest that the trial by combat is held in Fera'an, which is currently under
our control and your dominion. Four turns will give you the time to bring armies
from all your castles. We will not interfere with your maneuvers north of the
agreed battleground. We will continue our campaign south of it. We expect that
you will not use resources from the north to interfere south of Fera'an.

Whether items will be allowed is up to you. If you would rather have the defensive
in exchange of the dominion, let us know, and our priests will bring the light of
Lady Elena to Fera'an.

Please let us know what you think of these terms, and suggest your own if you
do not find them to your liking.
