Date: Wed, 25 Jun 1997 13:43:04 -0700 (PDT) Subj: [Charles] Turn 84 Charles takes advantage of the silence Charles steps forward and calls out loudly for all to hear, (speaking in Latin, then hopeing for adequate translation) "Lay down your Weapons. We Will Spill No More Blood Here." "People from Ford's Village, there is no Need for this Violence. We tried to negotiate in Peace, to share in the resources." "Ford chose to murder our emissaries instead, and as you can see, Has paid for his crime." "You All Need NOT suffer this fate!" He points to the bodies on the sand. "Put down your weapons, come and sit with us and talk of civilization, and of sharing. This is a free town, you are welcome to join us and live by our rules, To go back home and trade peacefully with us, or to leave now, and go away." "If you attempt to steal or take from us by force, you will be met with deadly force - Most of you will die. We are prepared to defend this resource so that ALL -- A L L may share in it." "The choice is yours." Charles stands firm and waits for action, or decision.
