Wars are not a pub brawl. They are very complex projects that require an extraordinary degree of organisation, cooperation and appeasement. The ability to maintain peace at home, acquire allies abroad, and understand what goes through the minds of other people (particularly your enemies) is usually the key to victory.

This is the stuff empire-builders are made of. The ~ Yuval Noah Harari

He drew breath and forged on, "Nearly dying clarified things. When you stand on the border between life and death, the truly important things are easy to discern.

And I will love you forever, until the day I die."

Smiling, he closed his hand about hers. "Mine to protect for our eternity."
