I am glad," he said, "that I do not dwell in your country among such savage peoples. Here, in Caspak, men fight with men when they meet - men of different races - but their weapons are first for the slaying of beasts in the chase and defense.

Your country must indeed be a savage country, from which you are fortunate to have escaped to the peace and security of Caspak.
