The Senate Building Rome, 484 AUC.
The Senate building is strangely quiet despite being full, the death of Dentatus three months ago has left them without an obvious figurehead Nobody has the authority or courage to stand up and take control of the session. Eventually a former Consul by the name of Lucius Cornelius Nervi takes the stand.
Men of Rome, the past year has seen our control of Rhegion pass onto locals loyal to Rome. We are in total control of the new settlement in Ariminium and a Legion there guards the passes from the north. The second Legion is marching north as we speak to join with their fellows and assault the town of Bononia, Dentatus believed that was were the savages who raided our farms came from. The information on our rivals is sketchy, Carthage has not attempted a new assault on Messana, the Epirotes failed to take Dalminion but we know little else. Perhaps we should think of a way to keep on top of what is happening around us?
Nervi sits once again
