A secret message has leaked! One player reportedly sent this message to another:

Don't fear, I was canalizing my energy towards you for I disliked your initial attitude, but I appreciated your most recent messenger, and wish you no harm. I am looking forward to beeing at peace. Are you undertaking any war? Sorceress Kirdel

Tzu, your treacherous attack against your former ally certainly went too far, and you don't wish to negotiate even though Jokhar's war with Hornblower, which was your pretext for backstab, is long time over.
