This is just so bad, our lizard friend. We killed indies on those provinces, and you insist your ownership over them without even giving us a compensation that I offered to you saying if you could let me have MY province. We tried to be friendly at our best: Offer you ANOTHER province we conquered plus 6 years tax from MY province for, well, MY province, and now you are claiming that you shall have THIS our province and THAT our province while I will get nothing from you except your "reasonable" word and your continuous attack on our provinces.
*sigh.
No pact? As you wish. Let it be, lizards. I had some good fried lizards as my lunch in the other game last turn, and I must admit that the taste is rather exotic. I won't mind for another try.

.............and I guess it would be a good time to teach you that Dominions is after all a diplomatic game. One day messengers of Arco and others will be busy running across the land of ex-ctis to deliver valuable goodwill and negotiations, but too bad, you won't be alive to see that day.
Although I might recall these good days we had together, when I and probably my friend pisses on your tomb. Oh my, your foul bones deserve that.

To the nation of C'tis: In light of your recent military and political scandals, the nation of pythium finds it necessary to demand these concessions in order to secure the safety of its borders:

Concession the first:

That you hereby cede these lands unto the administration of pythium to act as a buffer to pythium's heart:

Kisrik Highlands(5)
Dry Bottom (21)
Akhatala Wastes (39)

Concession the Second:
Furthermore, as a further demonstration of goodwill, you will donate either 25 astral gems or 500 gold into pythium coffers to cover pythium expenses of preparing its buffer zones against possible aggresion.

Failure to comply will result in you facing a two front war against two different nations, which together are capable of removing you from the map entirely with the slightest amount of effort, as we seek to ensure that our borders are populated by those we trust to be good neighbors.

Well well, I was just wondering what was taking you so long, Pythium.

Let's first make something very clear: if you wish to backstab and blackmail the honorable nation of C'tis, and align yourself with the scum of Arco, then that is one thing. But do not do it under the pretense of ensuring safety for yourself. C'tis has not been involved in any political or military schandal; these exist only in the minds of Arco. And your borders are perfectly safe I would say, with a nice castle and 200+ troops only 2 provinces away from my capital.

So, now we have established the true situation, of which you decided to take advantage and blackmail us. Fair enough. We will contact you privately with a counter-offer. Also, we ask that you specify exactly how you will guarantee the safety of our borders once we have reached an agreement.

I noticed that after negotiating a 'peace' with him, and then claiming the moral high ground, you nevertheless proceeded to attack him the following turn, rather than attempt to redress the situation. That smacks of opportunism, not 'honor'.

Blackmail?!

THIS IS PYTHIA!
*kicks c'tis messenger into hydra pit*

Also, arcoscephale was friendlier earlier

Interesting, Pyjamas (oh, did I just misspel pythium? Ok, bad joke I know).

So you ask for concessions and before I can even give them to you, you attack me? Clearly your intention always was to attack us anyway, and hopefully get some free astral gems on the side? Where is the honor in that?

And for the last time: No agreement was ever reached between C'tis and arco, no NAP or anything, so we cannot have broken any either. You may attack us all you want (and I have a feeling you probably will), but C'tis honor is holy!

Btw, regarding that legionnary horde of yours that you have marching on our capital... ever heard of Varus and the Teutenburg forest? Well, we have no forests but a swamp full of angry lizards could do the trick as well!!

You have been warned. Now we have nothing more to say to you but this: BRING-IT-ON!!
