There was no way for Herodin and Stalwart to win at that point, and all Herodin has managed to do is prolong the conflict and get more people killed. if you had but surrendered, then hundreds of Northerners and Southerners alike would have been spared!īarik's not wrong here. Before the Disfavored could finish their desperate attack, the Edict swept up my people and Ashe's legion like they were made of straw, battering bones and iron into so much dust that now swirls about our heads. Hostage trading was an established practice in antiquity, and quite frankly holding all these guys prisoner wasn't the worst idea. I get it, you hate these guys for what they did to you, but you invaded his country. We divided their numbers for our own protection - some here, others at Duskwatch - with plans of bargaining with Ashe for their lives. : In the second year of the war, my personal forces captured one of Graven Ashe's elite legions. : What was that about a Disfavored suicide march? Even the French, a so-called Great Power, fell quickly!
This is a hard question! A lot of countries in early World War II struggled with resisting Hitler's military, which at the time just steamrolled its way through Europe. Whereas Ashe capitulated and sold out his people, Herodin continued a fruitless fight he could not win that devastated the land and inflicted no real damage on Kyros. : I came for the clear skies, but it seems I was misinformed. Your friend here seems a mite unstable for emissary work. : He sniffs and turns his attention to you. Do I know you? Your face - what little I can make of it - eludes me. The screen shakes when he delivers this line. Come out and face us, coward! You've dodged this reckoning long enough. : Herodin! Barik pounds his fist together hard enough to shake the earth. Keep a respectful tongue and you won't have any trouble. He hesitates and prepares to speak further. : I suggest you turn back the way you came, however it is you got here, and inform your superiors that we will not be budged. Herodin has fucked up so badly that his own people are fighting the invaders to see who gets to kill him first. The Regents have ruled Stalwart for 500 years. He is the one who suspends this war with inaction, and we will be only too happy to strip him of that distinction. : I think the Regent mistakes his place in the matter. If you wipe the grit from your eyes, maybe you'll see that we've come with more than honeyed words at our disposal. It is up to Kyros to end this Edict, and nothing will move the Regent to negotiate.
My reason compels me to doubt your words, but something in your bearing tells me you speak truth.
: I've come a long way for an audience with the Regent. Today we're going to see just how awful the Tiers leadership is.Ĭonsidering the hell the Regent put Barik through I can't blame him. Welcome back! Last time on Tyranny, Cleopatra Jones pit her power against Kyros the Overlord and won. Part 51: Cleopatra Jones and the Derailed Trolley Cleopatra Jones and the Derailed Trolley
