"Ok, so what were they the fifth time then?
I offered to be merciful, but not unconditional, this was after Tower Fatmilak had fell."

I'll make a translation from Aurvandil-language to human-language:  ;D

Aurvandil's conditions:
You are PIRATES, not noblemen, and you will be treated as such, as vulgar commoners. You must surrender, and put yourselves, your titles and your lifes at Mendicant mercy. He will take them or respect them as he pleases. You can chose this, or be destroyed!  8)

Actually the "We will not negotiate with pirates" thing was while Madina were sacking candiels, we still offered you the high sovereigns mercy, which is less disturbing then you seem to think it would have been.

Madina sacked Candiels? and I didn't saw it!  :'(

I only saw a disastrous attack to Candiels, and then, the fall of tower fatmilak and the big genocide of Madina City.
About the Mendicant 'mercy', If you let someone to put a sword in your throat, to see how merciful he can be... good for you, but for me... no Thanks!  :P

The thing is if they are winning since they are sacking your city it seems more like you want peace because you are losing and not because you are so merciful. I wasn't there so I can't say thats exactly what happened but its what it sounds like.

You very briefly got a little looting and sent out a sortie into Aurvandil lands.

I think the mercy is some chivalry / honour metaphor crap or something and not just putting your dick in a vise and hoping mendicant doesn't twist the handle.

The Royal Prerogative of mercy is a matter of honour.

An enemy who lays down his arms is the same as a noble who can no longer raise his sword, it would not be honourable to continue the fight against them.

Not just a case of, as DamnTaffer says, putting your dick in Mendicant's vice and hoping he doesn't twist.

And Mendicant would never demand harsh or intolerable terms.

Harsh is a very subjective term, and intolerable varies quite a lot per person.

But Mendicant would never demand anything the other person cannot reasonably do, stand, or deserves to have demanded of them.
