Ah, well, I certainly can't guarantee that no-one else will attack MA Agartha.

In fact, I can basically guarantee that other people *will* attack MA Agartha - in the aforementioned plotting, I was the one advocating delay .

I think when ma agartha is attacked, that will fill in whatever doubts any interested in who is in the alliance on the eastern realm may have.

My cousins EA and LA Ctis are always loved because they are, after all, Lizards. So even if my cousins are part of the Evil Empire, should we ever meet, well cold blood is thicker than Water! I will fully expect a savage betrayal of your former allies and a new alliance of Lizards!

I admit I've been the one sleeping in the Great Diplomacy Game, as the ones I've counted among friends have been already killed by my current neighbours. But that's only fitting for a twilight race, the last ones to shut down the lights.

But I'm hard pressed to believe that the delay MA Man was advocating was for any other reason than his losses in his war against EA C'tis. Perhaps you were afraid your "friends" would take a too large a slice off the pie if you hadn't had the time to mass forces at my border? After all, should they have gained too much ground it would've made it harder for you to crush them in turn.

And Xietor, regarding EA C'tis you're too late. Your lizard brethen have been crushed already by Man.

/cry Lizard tears for my cousin.

Beware Lizard killers, the tails of the Lizards are long, and our teeth sharp!

I resent the implication that I turn on - and crush - my allies. I never allied with EA C'tis, there was an arrangement of temporary convenience only. I don't see how he could've construed "I have no plans to invade you at this time" in any other way.

LA C'tis is a permanent ally. Totally different deal.

Anyway, I was advocating delay because I wanted to get the diplomatic situation straightened out; a quandry from which I am now clearly resolved . If I'd been certain that we were attacking you I would've said so.

Troops are like toilet paper - I expect to consume them in great scads but it's hardly a concern to a celestial being such as myself.

Cold Blood is thicker than the ink of your treaties. In the unlikely event MA Ctis ever lands on the Eastern Shores, we know we can rely on our cousins to fight at our side!

I maintain that we did have a NAP, but since that was a long time ago and the in-game message system was used, I chose not to pursue the argument any further. We will just have to agree to disagree on this issue. You are correct that we never had an alliance though.

You lost more than just troops. You lost quit a few mages (some holding a large amount of gems) to the two earthquakes in the swamp, and your god was dispatched easily enough by serpent dancers.

Thanks.
