*Alkyoneus smiles towards Antigonos, and speaks to him while he places his left hand on his shoulder with a friendly manner*
"Thank you very much Antigonos, my friend. It would be of my personal honor to have you positioned as Head of my personal Hypaspistai guard, as well as come as a guest to your noble estate. After the Synedrion is called off and the official crowning ceremony will take place, I will declare you as Dioiketes Basilikes Phrouras (Commander of the Royal Guard) myself. I cannot see anyone better suited too, as your house is a very noble one and I owe much to your great father, Attalos, as well."
*Both men walk out of the chamber, already preparing themselves mentally for the gathering of the next day*
Just to make some things clear: Rhemaxos is not simply a diplomat, but a representative of Oroles (Basileus of the Getai) himself. He speaks in stead of his master, and as such his words are as if they come from Oroles' mouth. So any false words would undoubtedly lead to more aggressive moves from the Makedonian side, considering it lies and treachery. So basically Rhemaxos can't really lie and talk on behalf of himself, unless of course the Getai have some secret plan to invade Makedonia...
