"Speak your message," ordered the king. "What

are your terms? I admit that I am beaten! For the

present!" he added.

"For all time, sir, while a member of the Nornis

family sits on the throne of Hatnor!" Sojan replied.

"Now, do you wish to hear my terms?"

"Speak!"

"The first is that you acknowledge allegiance to

Hatnor and pay a tribute of five hundred young men

to train in our armies every tenth year. The second is

that you disband any army you still have, save for

policing your city. On signs of attack, you will notify

the Empire, who will come to your aid. As a mem-

ber of the Empire you will be subject to all laws and

trading terms of the Empire and in times of major

war shall enlist two-thirds of your fighting strength

in the armies of Hatnor and the remaining third if

called upon. You will not make war-ships or weap-

ons of war, save hand weapons, for your own use,

but all war-ships and arms shall be sent direct to the

capital. Do you recognise these terms?"
