Sorry. You should, however, be aware that those who consort with evil are
often cast as evil themselves.

My experiences with the yellow dog Cendage have not been similar to yours.

PLATO has been a peaceful alliance, only concerned with defense and internal
development for the last 40 turns. We have no designs on Ossicus, and
always scrupulously honor our agreements.

You have my word as a man of honor.

PLATO has never acted in a dishonorable way, and we would all fall on our
swords before resorting to such behavior as shown by the yellow dog Cendage.
If he had the honor of a snake this war would not be occuring now. If you
have any influence over EAGLE plead with them to overthrow this foul despot
and perhaps then we can come to terms.
