My people, Our electronic scribe made an error earlier and has been duly chastised for it. It mentioned that with the acquisition of new territories in Our Benevolent and Benign Empire your taxes would be reduced. That should have been "your free and voluntary set contributions to Our welfare and the welfare of all." Said scribe was subjected to twenty overvoltages and the loss of power for five minutes; We do not think that it will happen again.

Imperial Torturer, We administered this punishment Ourself, as We did not want to distract you from the inestimably good rehabilitation you are doing with those in the Imperial Oubliette.
