| ".....stab his friend in the back? Firstly that would be wrong. Immoral. What's the point of friends if you cannot trust them? Secondly, SOMEONE would find out, and his supporters would rise up. It would be civil war" | |

| Joachim: I was speaking metaphorically. I meant attack his territory when he least expected it. Overwhelm him and his supporters before they could mount a proper defense. And really? You think stabbing someone in the back is immoral? You wouldn't last five seconds on a Brigardi battlefield. | |

| Joachim: If someone is an obstacle to you becoming an emperor, then they're not you're friend because they're most likely plotting your downfall. After all, you're an obstacle to THEM becoming emperor. | |
