Lupus: Salve citizens and hail Caesar. I’m Appius Flavius Lupus
Cincia: I’m Cincia Ordia
Together: and you’re watching ‘Good Morning Romae!”
Lupus: In today’s headlines: Amidst reports of political stability within the Kingdom of Caerlegion, Caesar has convened a special session of the Senate to discuss the potential of Roman intervention in the troubled region.
Cincia: If the rumoured demise of King Llewellyn ap Gruffudd is to be believed it would leave Gemellus Caesar’s infant grandson, Prince Aurelius ap Llewellyn, as the soul heir to the Dragon Throne.
Lupus: According to sources in the Imperial Palace, Prince Octavius Drusus, who holds Caerlegionare lands and title, has been recalled to Nova Roma to advice on the situation and Proconsul Octavius Trajan, understood to be engaged in negotiations with the Gauls, has been instructed to prepare his forces to assist his noble sister, Queen Agrippina, in restoring stability to the troubled kingdom.
Cincia: Speaking of troubled, chaos continues to run rampant on Harren Island. Dispatches from Praefectus Vipsanius Agrippa have of course been classified but as far as we here at GMR can tell time seems to have slowed to a complete standstill on the island.
Lupus: Metaphorically speaking of course.
Cincia: If you say so…
Lupus: In order to aid the efforts of Praefectus Agrippa in restoring order to the lawless island the Legions stationed in Caesarea have been placed on alert and reinforcements have been dispatched to the VII Classis.
Cincia: To meet the increased logistical requirements in the region Gemellus Caesar has decreed that the Province of Caesarea is to be connected to the Imperial heartlands through the annexation of new lands.
Lupus: To accommodate mighty Caesar’s command the remainder of the Free Achaean Cities, many of which are thought to date back as far as ten thousand years, have been fully incorporated into the Imperium and added to the Province of Achaea. With the remaining territory being reformed into the new Province of Pontus, under Imperial control.
Cincia: The Senate, in gratitude for the enlargement of one of the most prosperous Senatorial provinces, has ordered the construction of a grand temple to Augustus Caesar in the provincial capital of Corinthus.
Lupus: As always for those at home, here is an image of our new borders: https://imgur.com/1QKA1cY
Cincia: Now the weather.
