- Claude, what happened out there? You left those
Imperial troops to die. Was that your plan all along?

- I wanted to win that battle with as few casualties on
[cdb]our side as possible. What other choice did I have?
- You had plenty of other options. Did you really think
[cdb]we couldn't handle it?
- You had plenty of other options. Did you really think
[cdb]we couldn't handle it?
- Our military capabilities only go so far. We can't
[cdb]risk losing even one of our capable commanders,
[cdb]no matter how unlikely that might be.
- But that kind of thinking got Randolph killed.
You signed that pact. Wasn't he supposed to be
[cdb]our ally?

- I don't see the value in sacrificing lives that we
[cdb]might've been able to save.
- I don't see the value in sacrificing lives that we

- How does that make you any different from the
[cdb]nobles who just throw mercenary lives to the wind?
Am I gonna be next?
- How does that make you any different from the

- Of course not. I could never replace you. Please,
[cdb]you've got to understand that.
- You should listen to what your commander is saying,
Your Majesty. Everyone else feels the same way.
Myself included.
- You're the king of the Leicester Federation. You have
[cdb]to conduct this war in a way that inspires people to
[cdb]follow you.
- I hear what you're saying, but what good does it do if
[cdb]we fight honorably just to lose?
- Why are you assuming we'd lose? You should know
[cdb]better than to write off your own army like that.
- Don't you agree, kid?
- Insist Claude have more faith in everyone.
- Boast of your own strength.
- You need to have more faith in us. Otherwise,
[cdb]we're not gonna be able to put our faith in you.
- You need to have more faith in us. Otherwise,
[cdb]we're not gonna be able to put our faith in you.
- I'm strong, Claude. Probably even stronger than you.
I can't believe you'd think I'd lose.
- I'm strong, Claude. Probably even stronger than you.
I can't believe you'd think I'd lose.
- You're not fighting this war by yourself. We're all a
[cdb]team here.
- So you need to sit down and have a long, hard think
[cdb]about what that really means.
- OK. I'll give it some thought.
- But I can't guarantee I'll arrive at the answer you
[cdb]want me to.
- I'm going to follow the path I believe in. That's what I
[cdb]set out to do as king.
- ...
- Let's just make sure Randolph's remains get back to
[cdb]the Empire for a proper burial.
