“Power comes at a price, love," Veliss replied through bared teeth, maintaining the smile she offered to the townsfolk lining the square. "What power?" "All power. The power to rule, to kill, or, in your case this fine morning, the power to incite the lust of the old goat you're about to meet." "Lust? I have no desire to incite lust in anyone." Veliss turned to her with a quizzical expression, her smile suddenly genuine.

“Your realm is an insane place. In Volaria, no-one goes hungry, slaves are no use when they starve. Those freeborn too lazy or lacking in intelligence to turn sufficient profit to feed themselves are made slaves so they can generate wealth for those deserving of freedom, and be fed in return. Here, your people are chained by their freedom, free to starve and beg from the rich. It's disgusting.” PeopleCountryWisdomStrongWorkWealthPoorMoneyPowerRichLandWeakMadSlaveHungerIntelligenceProfitHungryInsaneChainsDumbLazyCashUnfortunateIrrationalFreeUtopiaNationPlaceDystopiaServitudeIllogicalEnslavementChainedSlavesNonsensicalFeedUnintelligentBegStarveRealmQuid Pro QuoEnslavedFreebornVolaria Book:Tower Lord Source: Tower Lord
