Love Conquers?

Turn re-sent!

May highway robbers not intercept this shipment.

Turn 8/9 -> St. Jon

Package received...

Hmmm, a visit from the Queen of Spain - better put out the good terra cotta pots...

Unfortunately, the gold is no-where to be found. We are merely poor farmers and fishers - at the bottom of the roll of nations. Last in turn, last in power...Happy when a crumb falls Our way...

We are sorry that Spain feels somewhat slighted by the stance of the Incan Empire, but We merely are prudent. Information is a valuable commodity and once it is released, it often ends up in unexpected places. Incan nobles are currently discussing the tendencies of the various world leaders - any negotiations will proceed from the way the leaders conduct themselves on the world stage.

We have an ancient saying - 'The Jaguar cannot change its spots!', though to be proven wrong on this statement would be a balm to Our souls.

We would like to reassure St. Jon that We do exist - though We are children in hiding it seems!! We do question whether you exist, though your handiwork is seen all around us as the creator of this world.

Hextapul has spoken!

[St Jon]

The 'Sinless One' did come amongst his disciples and sadly confirmed that there were some stone-age savages called 'Inca' still living in a forgotten part of the World. These creatures were untouched by the joy of salvation and desperatly in need of loving care to lift them out from under the shadow of 'paganism'.

Worry not poor misguided creatures for St Jon is here!

Blessing upon you all and Turn 9 to Brother Tomas.

[MOBIUS]

We Spanish respect the caution of the Incas, learned from their turbulent past...

We shall endeavour (when we find you...) to act as the very epitome of model neighbours - Indeed Catholic Spain will soon have it's very own diplomatic corps with which to make contact in a mutually beneficial way...

Turn 9 ==> Breaker

St Jon, when willst thou grace the bountiful shores of Wales with thine presence? We long to hear of your wisdom, for many in Wales believe you to be a man of the cloth, unlike most of the sinful wretches who tread this earth.

[Stavros]

At last the King of Australia has decreed that a new city be built to honour the throne.
In addition we apreciate the discresion of the Welsh in turning their Knight away from our lands.

Otherwise our peacefull growth progresses unabated....

[Rick Elkins]

Turn 9 to Hextapul

Greek carpenters and stoneworkers prepare to finish off new cities for our growing population to inhabit even as our people now grow tired of anarchy. Could a change be imminent?

[hexagonian]

Turn 9/10 -> St. Jon

Truly a geat day in the Empire of the Sun!!!

Celebrations abound in the Empire today as Hextapul has been revealed to His people - appointed by God Himself as Sovereign and Absolute King of the Incas.

The few peasants who dared to run amuck thoughout the Empire with their desires to implement mob rule were beheaded and their bodies thrown to the dogs.

After the celebrations, Incans return to the daily grind of building an Empire - but it is with joyful hearts, for the Incan people now have a greater purpose to live and build for.

Turn 10 to Madrid.

Fear'th not my children of Wales! As soon as my Missionaries have proven themselves worthy of representing My Purity they shall set forth to bring My Word to an unenlightened World.

[MOBIUS]

Given the vast amount of book keeping that is required for keeping track of the heresies committed against the Spanish Republic, and the attendant cleansing 'ministrations' - a useful side effect has been the invention of bureaucracy...!

The 1st Spanish diplomat shall avail himself next turn...

Turn 10 to Hextapul

We Greeks join the rest of the world in establishing a government of rules, and not of chaos. (although we still have a fondness for Dionysus!)

With Xenophon now crowned as King, we look forward to a bright future.

[hexagonian]

We are glad to see the attempt to use non-military units to establish diplomatic relations.

A sign of enlightenment and wisdom...

Turn 11 to Madrid.

And lo' didth' His Purity survey the land and did find that which vexed him mightily. Whilst promised a peaceful envoy what didth' Scout's of the Salvation Army report?

Brother Tomas willd'st thou explain thyself?

St Jon the Innocent.

St. Jon the cryptic?

Our diplomatic mission to Tours has been despatched and will be arriving at it's gates in the next couple of turns under the guidance of Shavlor of Spain...!

Please welcome him with open arms, in the manner that you preach...

There are scouting missions along the border, but rest assured they mean you no harm whilst I am on my pilgrimage to the Vatican City...

How can a God Fearing and Devout Man entrust his people to the custody of 'The Beast'?
