Senator Lazaros II Melissenos
The question is, how we can put our political weight to the best use. Individual, we are no match for even one of the Dynastoi, all together we're not as powerless, but what to do with that power?
*Lazaros again taps with his finger on the table.*
I agree, that staying truly neutral will not be possible, not at this point. But we should stay open to alternatives, maybe even act opportunistic, if a better option presents itself or our benefactor starts to show weakness. More important, we should do what we can to prevent the Dynastoi from splitting the senate. We must continue to working with our peers, be ready to make compromises, negotiate, bargain. I know, there are differences, but still... only a united senate can be a strong senate.
And that's what the Dynastoi secretly fear, I think.
