Do what you must, prepare your soldiers. You've taken the only thing Solterra had left in the world, nothing you do will make him pull back. As Flooby said "You're really going balls deep, I admire that." This means Solterra is pulling out all the stops. That doesn't mean he will win, he's doing every thing in his power to get to Cole. The more Cole does to Alexis just spells out the bigger punishment plans for him if Solterra reaches him. The arguing and hateful words are over. Whether or not Fortunes keeps his word not to hurt her, this is going to be a bad moment for Lundlands. So Boerd wanted a peaceful resolution and his demands were already met, so he makes cruel demands. It's okay. The more that is done to Alexis spells out bigger punishments for Cole. For every fief Solterra fights, he will leave it in ruins to be scavenged from by others. He's going to put a scar into Pelataria that will never heal, so get the bandages. It's going to be deep.

The only reasoning for ever quoting Flooby is to show the seriousness of everything that Solterra is about to do.
