*looking at Sarpedon*
Sir, the greek's are known for their logic, so please, try to show some, you have come in here brandishing nothing but insults and contempt to those unlucky enough to not have such a high office handed to them by birth who dare to show any devience from your own views, do you really think that any future ruler of the arche who displayed himself in such a way would command the respect of such a large empire with so many varied cultures?
Nay, such a man would bring ruin to the arche faster than any other empire, and for that reason I second edict 2.3.
I would also like to assure you, though, I do not wish you to be heir to this great empire, I bare no ill will towards you, I simply take a diffrent view about polotics and the military than you, the vendetta you speak of is all in your mind.
Further, since it is obvious that if I was chancellor, you would not accept any act I made without the greatest of struggle's on my part, I also call for Phanias Laodikeias Lydikes, satrap of Parthava, to run for chancellor, since, apart from the baselloes, he is one of the few men in this room with suitable experience, and respect from every quarter.
