Does Garlemald have enough for full out war?

[Kallera]

But the one he kills is probably a traitor (seeing how he reacted) and not a pureblood Garlean. The ones that Zenos killed are pureblood Garlean (since they do react bad to Fordola) so he is killing their own "race". I mean if that is an acceptable way to handle loss then I would not want to be in that army.

Yeah, sounded like Nero worked with what sounded like a Internal Affairs or Intelligence Agency and just wanted to off the man in style.

Zenos is just, Dr. Evil style management.

It was mentioned that the political atmosphere of the Garlean military is one laced in subterfuge and assassinations, where even claimants to the throne are not safe. while not everyone(I hope) Is like Zenos, there is a culture of fear that may have grown into its own thing, making players of both the legatii and the royal family.

THAT SAID:

They are not making very good opponents, Zenos only soldified the various ways they can be crushed, including a potentially crippling weakness to their magitek industry.(the scientist makes mention of the vast amounts of ceruleum in their heartlands, iirc.)
