he is not to be faithful to his own destiny?

You Can fight against

the Gods that you have?

The answer of the sent ambassadors

from the Earth of the Rising Sun.

Take them to it.

Their heads, sent of return

the heads of the ambassadors

in sealed boxes.

Mongoles can have

taken Chinese by the sword

but they are the sufficiently ready thing stops

knowledge that must be governed by the pen.

Already ramos a nation

civilized when Ghengis came.

The geniuses of the conquest

they do not have to collapse that.

They respect to Tao and

lessons of Confucius.

He himself Kublai has said that not it can

to say if the Christians, Muslims,

or Buddhist Jews or are better.

Each man believes in which he wants.

Who, you will ask yourself,

it conquered to who?

Everything is written in

annals of history.

So that all the man knows

the traditions and serve to them as guide

to present and future conducts.

Like living in harmony with the world,

the duties and rights of everyone.

One of your duties like

governor is ocuparte of this.

The poor men, patients and who no

they can be worth by themselves.

Also you will take care of

the education of these.

These children here.

You will make sure that the names

of each one of the inhabitants

of each house they are in the door.

He is the best thing to maintain the order.

You will construct towers for fires.

Places where it is possible to be gone for

to save the pocesiones in case of this.

You will make sure that each man

know like protecting its house of the fire.

It is valid for

streets and the whole city.

When a man kills another one, what does

of good to the family of the dead

to also kill it to him.

We put a price to him to the man

assassinated and we make the assassin

to work until

death has been paid.

It remembers, the Earth laws and the Sky

they are applied to all including a same you.

But it does not stop the Emperor,

because he is the son of the Sky

then how to apply them him.

What is that?

Messengers of the Khan.

I must return immediately, I am not going to take

no soldier, until

surrender of the city.

One had gone away like

prince, and now orders itself to him

to return like a thief.

She had to die, is necessary to be

obedient, she must follow the orders

or there will be no order.

When trusting you, not us

we mistook, you you demonstrated

your faith like governor and

your words are worthy of

a diplomat.

You reconstructed the city,

you fortified its walls

you caused that the population grew.

You caused that the inhabitants felt:

Out of danger, prosperous insurances and.

Your name, by all means, never

it will be announced publicly

How we could admit to one

Barbarian in a so high position?

As it is 50

He is dangerous to leave somebody

governing in he himself

place for a long time.

The people forget that they direct

only because we

we allowed, soon

they lose the head.

And now it can that there is

new subject for you, Pole.

Gueme.

It tell me, what you create,

which could more be the weapon

dangerous into the hands of my enemies?

- Wealth.

- No

- I exercise.

- Ja

The knowledge. The knowledge.

These maps reveal where they are

my forts, the bridges that cross

my rivers, my palaces with

its wealth, the cities more

difficult to defend for me.

Without these knowledge my

enemies are blind, blind

as I with respect to them am blind.

There are too many spaces

in target in these maps.

These are the Territories of

Rising sun. Hundreds of years

back, China established his

colonies there. But in

times when people became

, hard proud, they refused

to recognize that they belong to us.

I sent ambassadors there, demanding

that they obeyed, but they

they cut to its heads and me

they sent them in closed boxes.

- They must be punished.

Yes. To know, I need to know how

And if we can make alliances

with these islands against him.

And here, here how

forts are these soldiers.

Is they of Ghengis or mongoles

that they will devastate with us or we

we can devastate with them?

Since we did with Auer,

the Young, the Sunk,

And the sea, how far extends

this sea and these islands and if these

islands really exist or

it is that they are creations of

imagination of somebody. And Mongolia,

Mongolia is the home of all

tribes united by Ghengis Khan.

Histories of the men say

that it is the Kingdom at night, and

what has of the Kingdom of the Snow?

They exist, really exist?

What exists?

How trusted of

they we can be here?

Here it is the Earth of

The Flying Dragoons,

here, the Earth where to the men

a single very great foot grows to them,

which they are accustomed to

to use to cover itself of the sun.

Here, men with

mouths in the stomachs.

You have seen these things?

Not personally, but

man who drew them, saw them.

The travellers have counted on them.

And the stories of the travellers

they are always true?

This is in which they create

people, in which they have believed

from distant times.

- The men would have to believe

in which they have seen.

What uses will give the maps

if they are based on stories?

The spaces in target are preferable.

No, to fill the spaces in target

it would be better even, with the truth.

Friends or enemies, knowledge.

The knowledge is always the best thing.

Where we will find to somebody

in who we pruned to trust and

that it fills those spaces in target?

Without stories, riddles or lies.

Whose eyes are clear,

whose judgment is healthy, whose

loyalty is indisputable.

And only because this way

it can protect its Khan.

Its Excellence has allowed

that a Barbarian leaves the kingdom?

With its wisdom, it has decided

that it can trust him.

How much it could leak to

the West, like creating the powder

how we organized our armies,

until where the Great Wall arrives.

Not even they have

stone that aims at the North.

Once they have it, will be

safe our borders?

Perhaps it has planned it

everything to betray to us.

To gain its favor, and to take

what it has learned its king.

- It does not have more king than I.

- Can be safe of that?

The Chinese call to the foreigners

of a form and to the friends of another one.

Will be Pole always a stranger?

Or is a heart Barbarian?

The great Ghengis, its wise grandfathers

it never left friendship it

it interfered in its security.

Veto.

I know it, I know it, hates to Pole. It does not want

to say that it does not have sense which says.

Certain, but also it is truth that

while they are fought among them

they do not have time to prepare

nothing against us.

You are the Khan, your

decision is the one that matters.

If you cannot trust him, that thus it is.

Jalo in its abandoned mission.

That it creates those maps that

show the way

while our enemies

they plan our fall.

And thus I began my trip for the Khan.

- To where we go?

- To wherever the Khan commands to us.

- And when we are going to return?

- When we find what
