Well obviously it's just a start, Glamour wasn't built in a day. (...er, and if it was so much the better!)

Well obviously again it's early days, but the new trade routes to pavis are open, and when was the last time there was a major incursion of nomads into sartar? None since Moonbroth, I can tell you!

Well, considering the Sartarite's bloody history, tribes and clans getting destroyed is nothing new. As for slave farms, what about the poor slaves slaughtered by hillsmen brigands during raids on tarshite farms? Of cousre that wasn't so much of a problemn, because we could always buy new praxian slaves to replace them from... you guessed it... the Sartarites!
Finaly, none of the Sartarite mercenaries accompanying our brave troops in red on our glorious march southward have complained so far.
