There's a statue in the ruins, but it's covered in snow. It's written in the sacred language of the empire: those who comply with the emperor will be honored. Those who go against him will be destroyed. Uh-oh. Wait a minute, there's something there? It looks like a building. Wait, wait a minute. There seems to be some sort of thing there. It seems like it was once a statue. The statue is covered with a plaque. The plaque says something like this: "Those who cooperate with me . . will be honoured in return." Uh, that's an arrogant tone
