Episode 10.3.a

>Villa of Salvius, Southwest of Londinium, Britannia, 81 CE<

Salvius has brought you out of the library into the atrium. He stops in front of the lararium but does not yet turn toward it.

 

"So," he says. "You can recognize a sound voice when you hear one. Sound, and strong.

 

"The Societas Potentium has always held Rome's fortune at its heart, whatever the populares" (the word comes out of him as though it tasted bad) "may say about the republic. No one loves the republic more than the Salvii do. But an empire needs an emperor. Agrippa, Augustus, and Gaius, Marcus's grandfather, gave us power. Is that not so?"

 

Tiberius stands a little apart, his eyes on the floor.

 


Prompt: Respond to Salvius. Deliberations in your team forums must reflect your Recentius's worldview to receive LP credit.
