Your attempts to get the peasants of your city to do the dirty work
of which you are not personally capable of yourself is quite pathetic
and cowardly.

If you want me dead do it yourself, Isildur, ... oh... you have never
been able to kill me have you - my mistake!

I am currently very selective about my victims. If the rabble of Shallam
take heed of Isildur's word, then I will surely not disappoint them and
I shall slay all those that stand in Shallam without prejudice or
discrimination.

You, the citizens of Shallam, can end this war not by leaving your
trenches and running to your deaths, but by urging your leaders to accept
our very reasonable terms.

Think about it.
