But first, the honorless assassin will die. After a few shuffling of my troops, theEoJ is sending female assassins?wench was caught and summarily executed.
I'm going to have to accept the extortionate deal of 10K and Constantinople gift in return for protectorship. I will evacuate the city this turn, secure the funds needed, and head back to Sofia without troubling you. You will have your roman border, as Rome ruled over client kings in that area where we now live. Head east, Doge, and may next time we draw swords we be allies on, say, the walls of Jerusalem.Since I am a generous person by nature, and since killing off EoJ this soon is no fun, here was my reply.
Grazie a Dio! To think you have finally come to your senses, and accepted my offer.As you can see my deal was very amiable as well as not leaving a single detail out. I love forceful diplomacy.
My dear EoJ, there is no talk of your surrendering! I merely uttered the whole "protectorate" deal to intimidate you. In truth, I do not wish to see the proud host of Ungheria brought so low, so fast. Hardly leaves me with any aftertaste.
My deal was this; You to gift me Constantinople and I will give you 10000 florins in return. I will withdraw from Budapest and we can continue our relationship as equals. It will be of your best interest to send an emissary to renew our alliance while my mood is still high. As you can see, my generosity is boundless as long as you sing to my tune.
Be Warned: When I meant the return of Constantinople, I meant completely, down to the last chicken. Although I do not think you are the kind of ruler who advocates scorched earth policy, you are probably thinking of destroying a few expensive buildings to replenish your coffer. (I would do the same) I have the screenshot of the complete lists of buildings from the last turn and I will be watching closely. It will be especially stupid if you give me just one small excuse to continue my one-sided war with you.
Tanti Saluti
