[i]"Do you think there will come a time when slavery will be outlawed? I understand it is a important foundation within your society but as ages pass society changes, and even those who were slaves eventually become free. Is that something the Legion will one day consider?" North asked poking Titus for how the Legion would feel about a hot button topic. [/i]

"Hm. That I cannot say for certain," Titus said with a shake of his head, "For to do so would imply that I know better than Caesar on such things, which I do not. I do not believe however, that Caesar himself would so such a thing. Slaves are part of the nature order of things after all. The strong enslave the weak, the conquerors enslave the conquered etc. Such is the way of the world. And why should that change? Now on the other hand, Caesar's wife....she is a new Canaanite and personally detests slavery. However, I should not speak of her, it would be impudent of me."

[i]"As for your war." North said as he folded his hands. "I wish for a quick decisive outcome, I do not take pleasure in the deaths of others. However a quick victory is by far the most merciful path one can take, but I will take no stance in it. Alaska is not in a position to send aid logistically, nor do I think our Federation will approve of sending our own to such far flung war zones. That and I'm already sweltering in this heat."

"One thing is for sure, Mr. Ashland, no matter what the outcome is. This war with not be quick, but it will be decisive. The NCR may not have wished it, and perhaps they did not foresee it, but they have started a war that will end all future conflicts between our two nations. Either the NCR will burn to ashes, or The Legion will. Thousands, perhaps millions, will die. And the devastation will be uncountable. But, in the end, we will finally have an ending to things."
