Hypocrisy

'These are negotiable terms.' You chose violence over negotiations. Not us.
If everything in our treaty was considered breaking the treaty, Enorian would have broken our treaty. Because of semantics, you can cling to that notion all you want. Let it be known that if you make arrangements in a treaty, you are free to not follow through with those arrangements, so long as you do not use your troops. A scrap of paper means nothing when that which is written upon it doesn't matter.
Since you wish not to get your possessions back sooner, something a treaty cannot stop once agreed upon, you simply wish to remain passive. Perhaps it is terrible that we even offer you such a chance to get anything back in the first place. You cry about injustices wrought upon you by your enemy - how amusing it is that Enorian believes their enemies should afford them mercies and forgiveness period. The treaty was for your surrender, not for any mutual agreement by any means. We defeated you in your second attempt at a war that you thought we would be left defenseless and you failed. Now you cry for special treatment for your failures. You hid behind that treaty made before my time to usher in Dejaani shrines and brayed like little donkeys about it. The Empire should have broken a treaty that the Hammer hid behind.
You can't have your cake and eat it too. Figure out what you stand for and then perhaps you might make more sense. If I see you standing alongside Consanguine, Undead, and those of Spinesreach you supposedly wish to stand against, I will be pleased that Corruption sees Her victory. Though it seems like Enorian enjoys hiding under Bloodloch's skirts.
