To: Astile
From: The New Republic of Etrusca (NRE)
we will never submit, never surrender; the limted effect of the counter attack was felt merelly because the new Republic had not yet come into full effect in the land, and the authority of the senates powers not fully contemplated, understood, nor inacted; no such barriers currentlly stand in the NRE's way; vengence will be swift and mercyless.
However, if you agree to return ALL Etruscan lands, return all slaves, or descendent sof slaves from of paternal Etruscan lineage, and re-emberse the republic for any profit had at selling such slaves, thier will be peace; other wise the blessed sowrds of the republic will slice off the snakes head; but again, unless that snake of Astile can prove himself a noble creture.
