Silly Eston.

Silly Eston, Trix are for kids.

Nevertheless, I have been forced to acquiesce and I may have to withdraw my support for the treaty. 

What kind of weak King are you anyway?

Pretty weak.

This war has been raging the whole time I've been King. I've never really had time to purge opponents or consolidate a lot of power. It sucks :/ Not to mention Eston has A LOT of entrenched old power. 3 of my 4 Dukes are characters in their 70s or 80s, and have been the Dukes of those cities (or other cities, or ex-Kings of Eston) since I've been in the realm in 2008. Seriously.

Hmm...may need to find myself a new lackey.

Or you could quietly find a way get it done anyway. There are a number of potentially subtle solutions to this problem.

I'm not kidding. They are seriously upset with me about it and think I am "weak and conservative" for giving them away.

Still being relatively new to Atamara, can you tell me why holding these regions would be so ridiculous?

I just don't think the politics add up. I highly doubt Coria would be okay with it. I honestly think Coria would fight us for them. I mean why not, they've been fighting a war for two years now to gain them, and I don't realistically see how we could hope to defend the regions in far East while defending our borders in the far West. Just doesn't seem to add up; I guess a lot of people think I'm wrong though.

Oh, yes, Eston should definitely try to defend those regions. You can afford to pull most of your knights out of Nazamroth for this. I promise not to take advantage of the situation. ;)

Aha! I knew it!

If he spanks my General, I am finding a new General. I only want manly generals.

Unrelated: If a noble named himself "Specific", I would instantly promote him to General. That way, I could giggle every time I had to address him. "General Specific!"

Look like war is coming to an end. Pretty soon one realm will end up dead these days 8)

This war will never end until CE and Tara are the only two remaining realms!!!
