The Magnaura

[pevergreen]

Michail glances up at the odd intrusion as well as the odd man

"Good question Sir, who are you? I must be losing my perception for what Civil War do you speak of? Apart from bickering between the two Megas candidates and Senators berating the Ceaser, I see no Civil War."

[ULC]

The man turns his head to look sternly at Michail. "I am Aleksander Echter ek Kallipoleos, former head of the Organization, Imperial Noble, and Informant for the Basileus. As to your question of civil war, I never once said one was going on, I send it was imminent, meaning it will happen, if we do nothing but continue down on the same road we have before."

[Andres]

Blahblahblah.

Petty schemes to influence the Basileus.

To prevent civil war, all we need is strong leadership.

The Caesar was on his way to ensure this strong leadership and to protect his future empire.

All you did was hindering his efforts.

The Grandmaster, the greatest foe of the next Emperor, becoming Megas is the first step towards civil war.

Dear Basileus, don't let yourself be influenced by conspiracy theorists and religious nutjobs all striving for personal glory and gains. You are much wiser than that. Don't let yourself be misguided and focus on the most important thing: stability in the empire, which can only be obtained by strong emperors.

[rossahh]

And just what sides will there be in this supposed civil war?

[pevergreen]

"Savvas you are tempting me to come over there and reason with you...outside. You do realise that at this point it is a lost cause. To you though Zigavinos, I presume it will be the throne versus all those who are unhappy with the royal family and it's members actions. From the Order no doubt..."

[Kagemusha]

"Calm down everyone. Who is this man coming here and talking to us as if we know him, while associating himself with the "Organization"?. Reveal everything now or maybe the Varangians should just slip your head from your shoulders, for proclaiming yourself as traitor in public, by calling yourself the former leader of this so called organisation."

[rossahh]

What, Makedonis against the Basileus? I simply cannot believe that. Surely you are mistaken?

[pevergreen]

"I disagree good sir, everything I have seen points towards Makedonis being a spawn of Lucifer himself. Truly Makedonis has had veiled interests behind everything he has done for the Empire. I do, however, recognise that my opinion is, rightly so, just mine. So I shall shut my mouth for the moment."

[Privateerkev]

Makedonios raises an eyebrow when he hears the mention of civil war.

Civil war is madness. Killing your own people is madness.

I believe people are letting their fears get the best of them.

If anyone is stupid enough to start a civil war, I will use every legal means if elected to put an end to it peacefully.

People... we might all disagree on many things... but I hope and pray that we are above such... despicable acts. We have enough enemies surrounding us. Searching for them in here is foolish.

I might vote against edicts that the Caesar or Savvas present, but to physically strike them? No. If they lunged at me I would of course block their sword. But I can not raise my hand towards another Byzantine any more than the cows can call the sun to come up at midnight.

If I hear of anyone stoking the fires of an imaginary conflict, I will be most unhappy...

Now I suggest everyone calm themselves, regain composure, and move on to more pertinent topics.
