[Aerich nodded]

Much the same, though there was another at the place I awoke, and those who opposed the guards I perceived to be residents of the nearby lands. They were dressed for the country, but not armored.

[ His own people didn't bother with armor, as it was too easy to target with sorcery, but certainly, those who lacked sorcery had no reason to ignore the benefits of steel between themselves and a blade. His own inclination was that some central authority had more legitimacy than what were probably random peasants, and those who may live in such barren country they were largely left alone until the arrival of foreigners. ]

If these were men of your own lands, what would you make of the situation? You perceive I do not intend to say they are, but I have not spent much time outside of the Empire. That is to say, my home.

[ His father had diplomatic experience, but given what had happened to his father, that had mostly fostered Aerich's decision to stick to governing his own lands unless there was call to leave them. ]
