Bab 1251: Atzi

The war like bellicose Metztil had already thought of using military force when troubles began to first brew.

But was staunchly warned against doing such a foolish thing by his wife.

She quickly showed him during such a crisis, he would be able to produce at best 10,000 men from the fractured Helvati and other allied tribes.

Whereas Tepin's supporters would likely wield twice as much if not much more.

Facing such a mismatch, the Helvati people would likely flip on Metztil even before the man could march to war. 

After all, many natives would have their friends and families in that army, and they would hardly consent to see them sacrificed for Metztil's foolish ambitions.

This chief was not charismatic like Alexander to be able to wield the complete support of his subjects.

Hence afraid of being ousted by a popular uprising from people who were sick of war, the man could only grit his teeth and endure.
