"Your Majesty is wise. This seed is superior; not only does he share an irrevocable hatred with Philip, but he also possesses considerable ambition and talent. Only those with both qualities are worthy of contending with Philip. The hundred and fifty thousand refugees were the first batch of fertilizer I sent to nurture this seed. Only by absorbing the nutrients from this fertilizer will the seed vigorously grow and gain the ability to prick Philip. The growth of this seed will surely inspire countless others to follow suit. Once the seed germinates in people's hearts, it will become uncontrollable. My recommendation is that we cultivate more of such saplings."
