The last thing our nation needs is a civil war! For gods sake, we have enough enemies piling up on our doorstep to fight!

Andronikos pauses, rubbing his hand

Although a neutral Megas would be good if this conflict even comes to pass, Makedonios has been making all efforts to call a peace, and I will, in no way, second the proposal by Kantakouzinos. It appears that my brother, the caesar, has made a small token of peace, but has yet to put any weight behind his pretty words. Sign the ammendment, my brother! If not for the good of yourself, for the good of our nation!
