{{Ha! I think you seek to imply something about the Brits with that statement. No way the House of Lords would lower themselves to our methods! Now if you were talking about the American politicians in election season, you would be more accurate }}

"Hmm. Thank you for the information, Senator Pylaeus."

*As the silence beset the Senate, Mandromenos finally could turn his attention to the message from Columbo*

Well, Well. Trying to play me against another I see... Two snakes seeking to bite the others throat. Very well, perhaps I should allow them to play their little games.

*He begins to write two letters, one to each senator to be delivered to them after the voting is over*

To the esteemed Speaker of the Blues
Fear not the honeyed words of our friend. As a Senator I am accustomed to the lesser aristoi attempting to get unearned favors from me. I will not be so easily mislead.

However, I understand that it would be folly to not consider the arrangement you proposed. To aid in the bond we wish to form, I would like to make an arrangement myself. If I remember correctly, your family is skilled in the art of trade and merchanting. I happen to represent a large collective of craftsmens and business owners in the archonate of Morea. While business is going well, I am afraid that the Plague and the Riots managed to kill many of our customers. Naturally, this will not do. If you would use your contacts among the traders and merchants of the Imperium to find buyers for my quality goods, I am sure that I will be able to compensate you in both material goods and other manners. Meet me in my residence in the city tonight so we can discuss this matter and others further.

Your hopeful partner
Sen. P. Mandromenos

To my friend Desmetri,

I would like to discuss the state of our Red Demes further, just you and me. Perhaps we can make an arrangement that will prove beneficial for the Senate and the Imperium.

Meet me at noon in my residence in the City in two days.

Your hopeful ally,
Sen. P. Mandromenos

{{Since I wasn't able to respond to this in character, here's what I would have said. The Colombo family lost its trading Empire during the Plague because it was based in Alexandria. As such, there's no real impetus for our characters to meet to talk about it.}}

Senator Alexius Colombo (Blue Demes Speaker):

Senators of the Imperium! Today, we are poised to put the darkest hours of the Imperium behind us. If we can contain the vile spread of heresy, the Imperium will be in the strongest position in a generation! {{good god the Imperium's been in tatters for a while..}}

But if we fail, the storms of the past will be a mere breeze compared to the winds that will come. Proceed carefully, Senators.

{{ @luciusmalfoy012 Surely you intend to restart your trading business. You could use your connections with the traders to lend you ships on good faith and the merchants to secure buyers. This could be a new beginning for Colombo Trading!}}
