Thank You, Helios

"The civilians need a peaceful environment to harvest, and in order to exchange for a peaceful surrounding they will need to have a troop stationed in the area, but in turn the troops will need grains from the civilians, while the governor coordinates between the two sides making sure that the civilians can keep enough harvest for themselves while the troops get enough grains… I call that an unvoiced alliance, or balance, between the three sides, a typical triumvirate."

Helios and the governors are stunned, because this voice came from none of them, instead it came from someone else that they are all familiar with –

"But this alliance, this balance, is fragile, it can be broken and interrupted easily by any external factors, such as a bad harvest, a bad weather, especially a prolonged war."
