... Demons, huh?

That explains some stuff.

-continues eating- Still.

From what my father told me, things used to be a lot worse just a few generations ago.

There wasn't such a thing as a firstborn child in the old days.

Yeah, the olden tines don't sound very fun. Having a mid-life crisis at 20 can't be pleasant.

... Well- for the firstborn of Carthage, in the old days, it was being sacrificed to the gods for good luck and fortune.

-sighs- Thankfully, that was before my grandfather's time. So its'- a little bit of History... recent, but- at least we're not Roman.

The Romans? Uh, let me try to remember my Earth History... What did they do with their firstborn?

Cause we play while riding on horses.

... Well- it's not as much what they do with their firstborn.

But- spilling more blood for their funerals- having men kill each other for entertainment? Its' barbaric.

And their expansion north- I've heard bad tales from their subjugation of tribes.

Ah, yeah... I mean, demons have recreational fighting for entertainment, too, but it's not for killing people off. That's a bridge too far.

Yep! It's super fun!

Fighting for entertainment is one thing- fighting to the death for entertainment is another.

Though maybe I have my biases. Rome has never been a friend to Carthage.

Heh. You totally should.

Ah. Well, Rome's changed a lot over the years. Not so brutal anymore, but they do have some of the most elite exorcists and demon hunters in the world so its not really my preferred vacation spot or anything.

Mm.

-sighs-

But yes. I've had unpleasant run-ins with Romans before.

Usually at sea. 'Unaffiliated' Pirates who happen to have good quality swords.

They're rivals. And have no interest in trade and co-operation with Carthage.

But- then- sometimes I think the government spends too much time thinking with their gold, than with their senses.

Seems to be how a lot of governments think, really. What do they have against Carthage, anyway?

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?
