Synopsis:
’A foot on the neck is nine points of the law’
There are many who say that the art of diplomacy is an intricate and complex dance between two informed partners, determined by an elaborate set of elegant and unwritten rules.

It would be churlish, if not extremely dangerous, not to comply - particularly if all they want is a wizard, and they don’t specify whether competence is an issue...
