George:
The Empire has finally sent back it's reply,
and as the messenger hands Iseroth the letter written by the Emperor, he backs out of the room.
The letter reads:
King of Krull, Prince of the Northern Lands,
It is with humility that the Empire must write this letter.
After much discussing the Empire has decided it has not the resources, nor the men to continue on in this war.
It's lands are secure, and its people for the first time in years are content.
Not only that, but the Kingdoms' invasion sent shock-waves through the moral of our troops.
They cannot continue on either.
So, we wish you well, and will send supplies to your troops,
but will not commit any of our own.
Because of the empire's offer to commit supplies to aid you,
you can now have your armies travel farther, faster while on your Ithaca campaign.
