>>57If the tide of the war depended on a single messenger, they probably weren't going to win anyway. What was the message? ``Dear King, I hope to find you well. As it turns out, the war isn't going in our favor, so I'm writing to ask you for more men. Regards, your loyal subject. PS: Please send another blacksmith. This on is incompetent and can't even make a single horse shoe nail. I'm afraid that I may have to have him flayed alive to keep up morale.'' And why was only one messenger sent? If it was that fucking critical, then why the balls would you make a single point of failure? He could have been discovered and killed by the enemy even if he had the horse shoe nail. Fuck them, they deserved to lose the war.
