~1st of Sun's Dawn, 4E 269

The council was having its monthly meeting once more.

This time the focus was all on Sameq. "I'm happy to report that the 200 reserves of regulars are currently trained and well equipped. Our army is at 100%."

"Good." Kalam muttered. He turned to Makela. "What about our revenue for the month?"

"After paying off the 10,000 gold loan from the Bankers' Guild, our treasury is at 85,000 gold." The Magister reported.

"Still quite the large sum." Kalam said, pleased. He looked over at the King.

Arthago nodded. "Let's keep the rest in the Treasury for a rainy day. Sameq, I want you to move our with 2000 troops for Craester's Arm by the end of the day. We'll show the local lords that no one disrespects Hegathe."

Sameq saluted him. "Of course, your grace. I will leave immediately."

He then looked over at his Master of Laws. "Kalam, I want you to travel to Gilane. If we are to win the next vote for Na-Totambu then we will need the backing of the other elector-kings. See if the city is a possible ally or not."

"As you wish, your grace. I will not let you down." Kalam said.
