Minister: Greatness was never amply equipped to justify the efforts squandered to grasp it. Such a lie,a pretense to entertain our greed, lust and desire.Giving into desire and we call ourselves warriors.We are just answering to the primitive call of violence.We wage wars not for peace.Peace is forged but with goodwill, a peace forged with war is just an illusion that will shed like the fog, only giving way to the scorching sun to burn.We of this state have been burned so many times,by now we should have learned.Our scars and graves speak volumes of our victories which have failed us.We win only to lose.Yet again, My King you push us into war.Be merciful,think of your subjects, they have lost so many, now you want childern to fight your wars.This here is a democracy, you are the supreme leader but only because we, of the council stand by your side.So I , We implore you to reconsider, Don't wage war. There are other ways to keep a country unified and peaceful.The peace you propose is fleeting and shall ask for deaths and loss, again and again.So let us not fall into this vicious cycle.Have mercy, Have mercy.For hatred begets hatred.Life can not flourish on corpses, your idea of peace is truly misplaced.

King: You know nothing of warfare, fool.The council might have power, but the people stand with me.They would answer my call, heed to my hunger.With my people by my side, we shall march into the continent.Blood shall be spilled, lives shall be lost but all for entertaining the human thrill.
