To the victors remain the spoils, I suppose.

• Wood -- Check.
• Coal -- Check.
• Fire pit -- Check
• Sharpened Stick -- Check.
• Alcohol -- Double-Check.

... You're rewarding them?

[heroisms]

No.

[twothrones]

It certainly looks like you are.

Is it not custom in Persia for those who survive a battle to be given rest, food, and company? I'd rather none of this children snap anytime soon.

... It is a custom of ours to indulge in such pleasantries after a hard-fought war, yes, but we did not arrange for a feast to be held following every skirmish.

That and I was under the impression the people here are trying to do away with the constant fighting and death. Your call for a celebration could be perceived as... encouragement of those violent trends.

Though the scale is far from what you and I are used to, this was no mere skirmish to these children. They almost lost one of their own, and deserve to have the chance to re-coup without the eyes of the City falling over them.

If you insist.

Is it that much of a problem?

[ Voice; M.Persian ]

[twothrones]

No... No. May you and your young charges enjoy the evening.

[ Voice; Sumerian ]

[heroisms]

I'm inviting you as well, Little Prince.

[ Voice; M.Persian ]

[twothrones]

... A generous invitation to be sure, but I will not be able to attend.

[ Voice; Sumerian ]

[heroisms]

The why for that, being?

[ Voice; M.Persian ]

[twothrones]

None of your business?

[ Voice; Sumerian ]

[heroisms]

As you will it.
