He chuckled once again when she said the cities will be too fearful to rebel. "Best for them not to rebel at all. I will offer diplomacy, but I will not tolerate insurrection and dissention. It is my domain now, and I will see to it that the cardinal rule of management is followed. You can never make all of the people happy, so your goal should always be to make the most amount of people the least miserable you can."<br/><br/>He turned to look at Moire with a bit more even keel now. "Of course I would, as long as, in return, you upheld your end of the bargain. Scars do not dimish beauty - they enhance it, as long as they are managed. I will train you myself, giving you the benefit of training from someone who has seen many a battle. But you are a woman and I am a man, and you have been presented to my harem. Each to give something with value, and each to receive something of value in return. You would agree that's fair?"<br/><br/>Finally, he turned to Amisi. "Knowledge is rarely useless, Amisi. It simply needs to be applied judiciously. Life, like any other battle, lives by one rule - if you do not learn from your mistakes, you will only repeat them. You must find how to use the skills that you have, and apply them as best you are able, and if you find they are not enough, well, you can always pick up new skills along the way." He looked over all three of them. "We each have something to learn. None of us is without flaw." He leaned over and pressed a kiss to Aimisi's cheek. "I will not force any of you to do anything you do not wish - you do not need eat with me if you do not want, you do not need to fuck me if you do not want - but it is something you will need all consider."
