Hmm, I will recheck orders in a minute.



On another note, erez still says this will die today, when I told him the only way this would die is if I died, and asked him if he thought I would die, he only sent a smilie with it's mouth zipped...

I'll tell you tomorrow if I'm still in good health.

My update schedule is as follows (pink colored dates mean unlikely to update, red means medium likelihood, dark red, means you'd better get your orders in.

To: Pirate Scum
From: Song

You have dug your own grave.

To: Zhou
From: Song

If you're willing to throw in an eco-point, we can even sign an alliance where Song will come to your aid if ever you get invaded. (You are not required to be dragged into our wars, though you are more than welcome to help us if you wish to.)

To: Chu, Tong
From: Song

It is time to teach the pirates a lesson. We should join hands in this operation

EDIT: NK, just how strong are the pirates? in numbers i mean

Hmm... We shall accept.

To: Chu

Sure. What do you propose?

EDIT: NK, just how strong are the pirates? in numbers i mean

Maybe 30 galleys, 2,000 men.

Okay, I just wanted to make sure that I would be back by the next update. (I'll be away Monday to Thursday this week.)

 

[das]

the only way this would die is if I died,

And if this dies, I kill you... which is rather confusing, as if this will die when you die, I will have to kill you again. Hmm. I need to find myself a necromancer. Just in case.

You might want to get orders in tonight, then; I'll be gone from Thursday to next Teusday, and I want to get an update in before I leave.

To: ''Tartars''
From: The Xiong Nu

Ah, honorable enemy.

We have come to offer a great agreement. If you, the Tartar tribes, would join us, In to a tribal confederation... let's unite!. Then we would share our secrets and even our treasury, land and the spoils.

Anyway, if you don't accept, prepare to die...

Some say "very well"... And they outnumber the others enough that they, too say, "very well".

Yes! I smell victory in the air!


No wait, it's coming from my pants...

One can... if the player limit is not reached, which is 20, which has been reached, surpassed, and down back to just reached in the past few days.

Hmm, it is 616 now... The number of the beast, I mean.

“Daddy, why is that scribe guy named North King being fried alive and his remains to be fed to the fishes?”

“He called me Emperor, which is heresy.”

“Why is it heresy?”

Xi smiled at this, and thought about it. The Title Emperor meant Huangdi, while the title King meant Huang both which was part of the Yellow Emperor’s title. To call someone a title equal to the Yellow Emperor was heretical, and against the faith and should be promptly fried…

“My Son, it is our religion and faith of Yellow Emperor that we cannot use his name. It is excusable for farmers and peasants to mistake me for an Emperor, but he is a learned man, a scribe for the official records.”

“But the rulers of Song, Zhao, and Chu use it all the time, I never see them being fried alive.”

“They are heretics, they know nothing of the True Way. They may seem like us in appearance and culture, but they do not worship the Yellow Emperor as we do and therefore it is our mission to spread the True Way. They are sheep, and we are the shepherds that must lead them to the pasture grounds before the wolves come and devour them all. Already, they have been visited by the anger of heaven, preyed upon by pirates, to show them their heresy. Don’t worry son, the pirates won’t reach Shu, the Yellow Emperor is with us and he shall strike them down.”

His son seemed to be assured by this answer and went on watching the scribe being dipped in oil and fried. He, like everyone else winced when the person screamed his death scream. One would wonder how a little boy could so easily handle seeing this, the Yellow Emperor’s spirit must be within him and when he looked up he saw eyes which did not belong to a child for a few seconds, but of the legendary Sage King. Ka-Li, his son would be great indeed…

On a lighter note, after seeing how much the fishes liked fried food, a young second son named Lio Bo decided to make fried food, frying fish, rice, vegetables, as well as other boneless meat. It was an instant success, opening a chain of stores and later had the honor of being the Head Fryer of the Imperial Shu Court.

Wait, isn't the Huang in Huangdi mean yellow, not the Emperor meaning??? so technically it's 2 completely different titles. The qin guy was first to use Emperor+di together. Also, the word for King is not the same as the Huang in "emperor+di". It's one level lower than them (like in Romance of three kingdoms?).

 

[alex994]

well, Huang and Wang in mandarin chinese isn't pronounced much differently despite their different appearance and near similar usage.

and the huang in huang di DOES not mean yellow, also Huangdi was used in the legends of the Yellow Emperor, the religion of shu currenlty.

Also, writing hasn't been invented yet! so there!

Huang means august one, Di means soverign. Huangdi means august soverign
while wang just means King.
