"They know the power I hold! They've seen my men kill whoever jumps at my throat. I have men in government looking out for me, one wrong move, and they are ready to pluck off the generations from the surface of the earth.

"But you forgot in whose hands the real power lies. The one on whom you are dependent to make a trade of each stone for arms, try seeking power again once you run out of the arms and bullets you already have and I'll see how can you sell that stone you've been mining and bravely making a claim to own it when there's no one to buy it."
