and you mentioned safety? didn't you risk that when you started 'assimilating' people? a true empire lives with people within there territory when they want safety. not run around slaughtering everyone. you guys didn't have peace at first time. just think of sodom. and holy roman empire. they don't act like you. and they are safe. now that you have us. it is certain that you will pay for what you have done all these times. it's not that we will kill you one by one. it's that your people will start realizing something is going very wrong and it is not SAFE under your command.
P.S. okay. our chieftain has a bad temper and he's not representing our village right now if you know what i mean ;D
