“...so I hereby declare myself the sovereign ruler and emperor of this part of land as I annex your kingdom. And as a part of the change in hierarchy, my friend, who is accompanying this messenger is to be appointed the chief on my behalf, with immediate effect.”
“So what do we do? If we acknowledge the message, this guy with him will become chief and the first thing he will do is to throw us in the prison.”
“Or throw us to the lions. Either case, we are done.”
“But then their army is going to take another couple of weeks or a month to reach here.”
“So what do you suggest?”
“Kill the messenger; kill that bastard.”
