    Default Re: The Royal Council

    Somewhat to the left of the throne, in a lebanese-cedar chair with gold engravings, sits Meleagros Ptolemaios, the King's half-brother.

    "I rejoice at your fortunes my brother, and wish great success to my nephew, young Euergetes, in all his endeavors! Zeus-Ammon watch over you both!

    Shame for the name though..." Meleagros winks at his brother. "Ha! Ha! I jest! You know better than to take my jibes seriously brother! The boy will make a fine leader. You will teach him of war and I could even show him the basics of arithmetic and geometry."

    Meleagros clears his throat.

    "On to more serious matters. First I wholeheartedly approve and second of both edict E1.1 and E1.2.

    Secondly, I would like to present myself for the office of Chancellor. My managerial skills make me best suited for a job far from the frontlines of battle. I would endeavor to support my brother as he stabilizes the kingdom and battles the Seleukid threat, as well as improve our current lackluster trading and income facilities. As a son of Ptolemy Soter, I believe it is my sacred duty to ensure the good governance of this great kingdom under the watchful eye and steady hand of our Basileos and Pharaoh."

    The supreme, the merciless, the destroyer of opposition, the exalted King, the shepherd, the protector of the quarters of the world, the King the word of whose mouth destroys mountains and seas, who by his lordly attack has forced mighty and merciless Kings from the rising of the sun to the setting of the same to acknowledge one supremacy.
