The trial of Senatus Publius Laevinius
Gentle men of the Senate of the Republic of Roma, it is my sad duty to officially open this hearing into the events immediately leading upto and the reasons behind the loss of the Republics Legio Eagle at the Ford of Massilia.
It is my unenviable task to decipher the actions of those in command, their troops and to apportion blame thereof, if any blame can be apportioned.
To open the proceedings I have placed a call to the Co-Consuls own Son Manius Aemilius for him to join us here and give is own account of that battle.
Until he arrives I ask which of you Senators stands before me in defence of the noble Laevinius and whom of you stands to accuse him?
(OOC: Waiting on the “who’s playing Manius” question and I would like the current Co-Consuls to keep me posted on their progress in the campaign. I want to time the verdict so that it comes through in time for the mid-term votes)
