Sandalyon offered you an identical situation to that which was forced upon the Gauls, reduction to a single city. You make it seem not so bad when it happens to Gaul, yet if it should happen to you, you react by torching an opponents city and butchering its citizens. You, like the Gauls, were offered peace. Unlike the Gauls, however, you seduced the Venetian leadership into aiding your efforts. The Gauls had no such power to rely on, and thus were put into the dependancy of others. Very interesting that both Venice and their savage ally seem to complete hypocrites...
You have never stated that you would not kill me. Besides, had you kept the city, you would have had temptation to take the other one to the north. Had you given the city to Thor, he would have proceeded to take Kendermore. So, I had no choice but to seek foriegn aid, it was either that or annihilation.
