We will strike north soon, our full strength is almost gathered." "How soon?" "Whenever I can be sure that my side will be the winning one." "As we speak Dol Amroth, Anorien, and Nurn are already preparing for open revolt. Other fiefdoms may have already joined them. A friend in Osgiliath has taken the fight to the city streets, attcking soldiers and worsening morale. Warlords from the south and east march on Gondor. Hopefully the rivermen of the Anduin will soon join us. The Royal Fleet is now loyal to me, and unless there was a problem at home I still have at least a 1,000 well trained men waiting in Pelargir. What better time is their to strike?" "A warlord is marching through Harad, towards Umbar with a large army, my recent scouts report. Why not ally ourselves with him? He seems to have a better chance then you lot, and I don't intend to replace one tyrant with another." "Because he plans to make himself king of Gondor. All of it. That includes Umbar. He's a wildcard I'll admit, but alliance with him will only come back to bite you in the long run." "And what guarantee do I have that yours will not?"
