"As a matter of fact, yes I will. My army will move to Antiocheia to retrain, and I will leave the 1st Lydian army to defend Mikra Asia. If Nikarchos accepts my offer, I hope he and his satrapal army will help out if needed."
Sarpedon turns to Phanias.
"Thank you, but my brothers? Only one of them is of age, and his handling of the 1st Parthian Army did not impress on me. A Basileus needs to be resolute, and he needs to lead his army against any threat that surfaces and destroy it without hesitation. This is why I cannot give it to him. If you do not wish to be the Kleronomos Basileios, I can choose someone else."
Sarpedon once again turn to address everyone.
"Thank you all for your words. I promise you I will not fail neither yours nor my father's trust!"
