"The old capital, that was exceptional. The fall of it was before my time, but after seeing that place in person, festering since the collapse, clear as day of what the 'cult' has intended for the world... I'll just say, it makes the Uruk look practically philanthropic for coming to Empyria, which, makes me wonder if they've ever used that as a bargaining angle...

Feline Sergeant: "Newfangled airships, flamespouting devices... Next thing you know, we'll redevelop the old autogy—"
