"That sounds like a great idea!" Senior Ceeran declared without hesitation. "Let's rally our troops and rush down and attack another Martial tribe immediately."
"No, we're not going to do that, will all due respect," Rui tried to hit the breaks on his enthusiasm as soon as he could. "We've painstakingly built an image of a peaceful and friendly group over many, many years of sustained diplomatic efforts. We cannot destroy all of that in the blink of an eye by provoking a conflict out of the blue. It will destroy our credibility."
Senior Ceeran frowned. "Then how do we engage in conflicts with the other tribes?"

"What ways are those?" Senior Ceeran raised an eyebrow.

Senior Ceeran frowned, throwing a puzzled look at Rui.
