So, if anyone touches Mide, it's war?Duke of Connaught glances for a long time towards the Leinster vassal, breaths slowly and says:
"It was days a go when i proposed things to the Bishop, not after your muttering today. My first proposal was to create a independent Duchy for Mide, which was impossible to achive. Second i tried to find council from Church, while my letters were not even answered after repeated pleas to the Bishop. After that i tried to open private negotiations with the forementioned Duke´s, to no avail. Why this was the case? Because these Lords with their all wits decided to leave me and Munster out from the decision making. Last now that all my efforts have gone in vain. I am tired of negotiating, so i will do what i can to protect the integrity of my neighbour, from the scheming of forementioned Dukes. Nothing more, nothing less."
After a pause.Duke continues.
"And one last thing.The Holy father you mention, is the Pope. Just so you know."
"When the candles are out all women are fair."
-Plutarch, Coniugia Praecepta 46
