Makedonios first turns to Anastasios Neokaisareitis.

While I am not sure, Edict 1.2 as it stands would make it optional for the Megas to take Bari. If you would like to present an edict that adds Bari to the list, you can amend yours to be more like Edict 1.4.

Otherwise, I fear the passage of Edict 1.2 might cancel out Edict 1.6 as it is written.

I hope this helps.

He then turns to Apionnas Vringas.

The Order opposes the Catholic Crusades. The Holy Land is not to be held by Muslims or Catholics. But by the Empire. This is why I feel so urgent in needing to get over to Antioch now. I am starting to hear rumors that the Catholic Pope will call for more Franks to invade the Holy Land.

Before you know it, even the Germans will be over there. And I think we can all agree that is something we do not want. (OOC: )
