"No, Father, I do not." Amica replied simply. "Though, I do have something to say that I have been thinking about for quite some time."Falag saw her and went up to her. "Don't ya wish you could be out there with 'em?" He asked sarcastically.
"I think we may need to boost the economy a little." Amica told him. "Fewer slaves, and more citizens. And this isn't to be kind to them, but if we have more slaves than we do citizens the slaves will begin to greatly outnumber us all, and given the fact that they aren't fond of us, could rebel. And if we don't have many citizens, less people are working jobs and trading which will run us out of money.""And what is that, sweet?" He asked.
(Yes, I know, but given the time period (I assume this isn't modern times) that's not that rare. Slaves had to work and work, and the kings were very harsh. And calling them by their names was seen as extremely disrespectful and rude during that time.But he also kills and tortures them and works them to death for the fun of it. The only thing the squirrel did was sit down for a moment. He would of killed her anyway, but he decided to do it sooner when she called him by his name instead of sir or your majesty.
Amica nodded in understanding. "Okay, Father. I have been rather worried about the economy lately, but it seems that you do have it figured out.""You are smart. I thought the guards might do as Citizens for a while. I have so many of them I can't even keep up with their names." Falag said. "I took over this island not to have a merry little town. My goal is far, yes FAR greater than that. Besides, I can level the population of the slaves easily."
"Yes, I would like to know your goal. I promise I will not tell anybody else." Amica said honestly, very curious about exactly what his goal was."Thank you, Amica. I'm glad that I'm not the only one with brains in the family." He said smiling. "Would you like to know what my goal is? Just between you and me? I know I can trust you."
