The Sinack have been subdued, but the Imperial Army finds that it's been caught in a trap!  A huge army from the Aldera nation has crossed the supposedly-impassable northern mountains, and threatens to overwhelm the exhausted Imperial forces.  Ikta's only way out is to force a peace treaty with the Sinack and ask for their help, which means going to their defeated leader and abasing himself.  Will she respond to his pleas, after the Imperials burned her village and killed her people?  How far is he willing to go earn her forgiveness?
but I'll cut twice more...
...لكن سأقطع ضعفَين
aber ich schneide noch zweimal, …
lo haré dos veces más.
Encore deux fois…
ma taglierò altre due volte...
mas tenho mais duas vezes...
но я отрежу сколько угодно...
