War of Succession: Assassination

Augurius Mede was in the Imperial City, waiting for his father to return. He wanted to speak to him as soon as possible, but he was out. His father, Titus Mede II, had gone to Skyrim to attend the wedding of his cousin, Victoria Vicci. He had left Ticemius, Augurius' older brother and current heir to the Ruby Throne in charge as regent while he was away. In Augurius' opinion that had been a horrible call. Titus wasn't well liked by the Elder Council as of late. Half of them hated the Thalmor and their Aldmeri Dominion and were extremely unhappy with how the Great War ended. The other half were friendly with the Dominion and wanted to improve relations with them instead of staying in the current state of Cold War and an uneasy peace with them. Leaving Ticemius in charge only made things worse.

Ticemius was well known for wanting to please everyone, this made him a very well liked person. In fact he was the most well liked of all of Titus Mede's children. However when it came to ruling that made him a pushover, and the Elder Council was using that to their advantage.
