So you're saying that the king, in his wisdom, sent messages which would lead us, acting as couriers, to question his motives.
And you don't find that in and of itself a sign that things aren't as you, or those of us who were couriers, believe? I hate to ask, but does the concept of secrecy not occur to anyone of this place? Do you regularly send people around with notes asking for the couriers to be killed? Were these couriers bargained with to carry these messages for the sake of their own safety?
It's not that I wouldn't say such things happened. I question what it means, in the context of this war. You, stranger, feel more like a shadow manipulator than a king who is so obvious in intent that he sends couriers of the people he claims he'll "hand over" in the process of giving pretty promises to buy time.
