    Do you honestly believe I have any intent of destroying the Ptolemaic empire? Ptolemaios I was a good friend of Megás Alexandros himself, as was Seleukos. Furthemore, the way you honestly believe you have the right to divide my empire between Pontos and Hayasdan, who are both my allies which I will gladly support if any foreign power would try to subjugate them. Do you honestly think that Seleukeia herself, which was founded by Seleukos Nikator himself would be granted to the Ptolemaioi? How about Antiocheia, named in honour of our king Antiochos. This will not ever happen, as brave Makedonians fought and died for our lands.

    It were we who cast out the Galatian invaders and saved the east from the Gallic threat.

    It was the combined might of Ptolemaios, Seleukos and Lysimachos who threw down Antiochos Monophtalmos who sought to usurp Babylon, Ekbatana and Susa.

    Where was Baktria in all this? Can you answer this?

    Also, the way you dare to take the lands of the Nabataean peoples who have lived freely and friendly to the heirs of Alexandros will not be met friendly by those peoples. So, friends, I ask you;

    At what will Theodotos stop in his lust for lands? If he does indeed destroys the Arche, which is a laughable idea, he will turn to the Kings of Pontos and Hayasdan next!
    Basileos of the great Arche, Let's combine our forces then like we did when Antiochos Monophtalmos tried to usurp the great cities! Let's stop fighting our own Makedonian brothers and close peace and restore order once again to Alexandros' domain! What do you think?

    Exalted lord of the Ptolemaioi, I cannot disagree with wise words like those!

    Let us reclaim Alexandros' empire. We have all seen in the past that one man governing all will not work. A strong alliance of the heirs of Alexandros will surely unite all the civilized lands under a strong and able rule!
