Negotiating With The Natives (Part-5)

As already stated earlier, Metztil was not the most politically savvy man around. 

The only trick he knew when facing Alexander was the one taught by his wife. 

And now that that had been used up, the man's chamber was completely empty. 

Thus towards Alexander's invitation for a new suggestion, he could only reiterate his old claim, before posing, 

"The people of Helvati will never accept the rule of an outsider. We have been fooled by you too many times. If you are truly sincere… then we can also promise you people that they can live and work in our lands… with special laws in place. Laws that will respect your rights and beliefs." 

As Metztil threw the same words back to Alexander, a touch of a smile graced his face, feeling quite pleased with himself. 

At least he had some cleverness in him.
