[h1] Lacedonia, Outskirts of the capital, 88 BC [/h1] As the governor rode upon his black horse reaching the city after years of touring his province governing maintaining order he was relieved when he returned home. 5,000 new legionaries were marching off the boat, Romes finest here, the senate had done as he asked. While this wouldn’t be enough to perhaps win the war it would be enough to defend. He sent all 5,000 legionaries to the river to defend while they would also travel through the city and outer towns showing them Governor Velos hasn’t forgoten. Making them 20,000 strong while he still had 10,000 in reserve protecting the city. He would write back to the senate thanking them and perhaps to his ally who had made the proposal. [hider=To The Senate of Varectian Senate ] [i] To The Varaectian Senate First off allow me to thank you wise Senators for reinforcing your most northern Province. The new legionaries will help in our defense, but if I may suggest for the betterment of the republic I suggest we expand so that the senate has more coin to spend on basic needs for the everyday citizen it’ll also allow us new resources and forces to join our army. If you do declare a war I would be most honored to lead the forces and take hold of either the Marfactorum or the Ardenoisian Tribes. May the gods protect you all. Signed Governor Conrad[/i] [/hider] He knew he couldn’t get a war declared alone, he required an ally within the senate and as his old “friend” Senator Marcus Favonius did nothing for him before he would have to look elsewhere. Who better than the one that provided him additional troops then the Senator Mirathus Kiarian. [hider=To Senator Kiarian ] [i] To Senator Mirathus Kiarian First off, allow me to thank you for gathering support to provide me with legionaries, however unless I am granted the privilege to fight for the republic they’ll do little good. So if you can rally support and provide me with a declaration of war then I’ll be in your debt. May the gods protect you. Signed Governor Conrad[/i] [/hider] [hider=Actions] Consolidate Power within Lacedonia.[/hider]
