"Mind your manners, boy! What does a whelp like you know about strategy? About economy? I have supplied them with all that is possible, and if that isn't enough, then the fault lies with the people for not working hard enough to give me more capital to work with! I have done all that is possible to ensure that they survive, without for that reason putting other parts of my kingdom in unresonable danger. I have a huge number of provinces to take care of and a relatively pitiful number of soldiers to take care of them, while he has only two settlements and an enormous army in comparison. It is not the same.
You're lucky you are who you are, or I wouldn't be so lenient with your insolence, brother. Do not test my mercy again."
