The Royal Council

[GMaximus]

"In the case that we decide to march to the aid of the Baktrians, I swear on my honor that I will be among those marching to its aid. I have relatives who left Hellas for Baktria, and was considering leaving Athenai for its mountains and cities before comming into the service of the Arche. The men there are among the bravest of Hellenes, having come to that distant corner of the world with little more incentive than spreading Alexandros' legacy further. If it wasn't for the dangers surrounding the Arche and my lack of suitable forces to command, I'd be willing to march out this very moment." Mikithion's voice, despite the content of his speech, was calm, and the only thing betraying his wish to avoid the destruction of a Hellenic civilization from the hands of barbaroi were small flames in his eyes.

Well Said, Mikithion.

If you are ever in need of a position, I could always use an Aid. As such, you would be leading the Satrapy's Defense Army when I was required elsewhere for administrative duties, governing our settlements if I were called away, and patrolling to roust out rebels and thieves. We are experiencing a lack of good, able men out here, so I extend this invitation to you. I have seen your work under Kleronomos Sarpedon, if ever he runs out of work for you, you have a place here, sir.
