PE-QS-Diplo [The First]: Region Claim Date:Mon, 19 May 2003 18:40:44 +0000 All, The Dark Legions lay public claim to the region Independent-148. The Legions will occupy this territory very soon, therefore any trespass will be considered an act of war. The First PE-QS-Diplo [Scherazade]: Independent-144 Date:Tue, 20 May 2003 23:16:49 +0000 In Persia we tell a story about a greedy man who came across a large beehive filled with honey. While the man knew his neighbor had discovered the beehive first, in his greed he tried to grab the honey before his neighbor returned. In his haste, he did not take enough care and was badly stung by the bees. Let all who hear this story remember the lesson. Independent territories should go to the first ruler who encounters it and those who ignore this precept are likely to be stung. Scherazade
