Not just words, but the truth. After all the truth is only words.

 It is the arms of good fighters that win kingdoms, not incestuous squabbles
and
conflicting claims.

Truly it is not just the fighter's that win the day, but also the blacksmith
and the armorer, the seamstress and the backbone of the populace that
supports my claims and my soldiers.
Family disagreements are different when the future of your country is
involved.

 I leave those to you-give me the joy of battle and
honest gold. When I get out my purse to buy my evenings ale, it recognizes
no king.

How true, how true. But I have seen many a mercenary support the wrong side
only to have his money taken by the opposing force.

I wish you luck on your endeavor against me. You will need it.

Edward III

Ineresting only the mercenaries are sending there messages to me. Doth the
French have no voice of their own? Must the hired help speak a King and A
country?

I respect the mercenaries for defending their employer, but I do not make
wild boasts as to my claim to the French throne. You might ask your
employer,The king of France, why he would not even listen to my petition
about my right to the Crown now siting on is head.

Empty words do not hold lands, your majesty. Such childish boasts need
little response.
Should you come and try to take France, you'll end up with but a small plot
of it-over your unmourned grave.

Alaric,
a mercenary fighting for France
