The Hundred and Four: Council Thread for the SSbQ Succession Game

[PershsNhpios]

Senator of Hadrumetum..

Or had you forgotten, that you are, a Senator - of Adrumeto!
I have no need to defend myself against your spittle!
My stature and my ability are like a colossus which does in total ignorance stand clearly and advantageously far above your gaze.
And your attempts to violate the justice, and puissance of my words do like the waves coursed by passing Biremes - halve and break against the very base of my power.

So do not accuse rampantly anything of your neighbouring province, for it is a loving province, and one that will always support Adrumeto and not relinquish support for such a fine city due to the ingratitude of one.

Bomikar! Strangle this creature with a muzzle before it destroys the reputation of your dominion!

Mago, this Senator would address you already as Shophet, but you are not such a man, and will not be until my vote is thrown within your favour.
And it is such a globally beneficial profit that I ask for - that we may in Lepki serve our empire more efficiently.
The rewards you will reap for your conduct in favour of my province will far beset the financial cost.
Consider it Governor... Or, will I say - Shophet?
