[Victor Steiner]

He took a sip of his own glass, before replying Is there? Bretonia is a house on the brink of military and economic collapse, the social problem have not yet begun to surface but they will and then the political problems will unfold. Whatever we could loose, the people in power seem to think we have already lost it. The conflict with you is a convenient way to cover up their own failings, while they quietly feather their own nests.

He took another sip. The emotional rollercoaster he was subjected two moments ago now subsiding, his face resuming one of calm seriousness. This war, not that it's being called that, is to extend their legacy and their control. Of course, it's all at the House's expense, they don't care what this will do to our reputation, they only care that you...Auxesia, are....how shall I say, 'brought to heel' as it were. Which is typical of their high class attitudes. He almost choked on the words as they left his mouth. The war was won by greater men, this is what we left behind Bitterness in his voice making plain his dissatisfaction.
