Would there be less injury and death to innocents caused by a power mad warlock on a rampage? Could my being there shield your guards from the ravages of foul sorcery any better than their own armours could? And you should have been grateful I even deigned to allow your own forces to become aware that such a threat lay in your midst, after you had done everything in your power to rob me of my liberty!"
