Chapter 283 - 280 -
The Principality of Christendom’s Cardinal envoy had intruded upon a celebratory banquet in progress and attempted to establish their greivence towards the reigning monarchary of these lands only to find that the woman with whom they had been trying to meet with was not the weak and easily used woman with who they knew.
No even though she had with foreign assistance returned to reclaim her kingdom these men of the cloth had assumed she was a mere puppet under Julius’s control, but as a puppet would equally be open to further interferance by her neighbors mainly the Church’s might and spread of holy believers.

An Emperor, and having just openly declared lordship over the recently reclaimed nation of Carthaginia, most shockingly to these men was the reaction from the surroundings.
Hundreds of nobles, generals, and high standing officials who had survived the Ramie purges were openly accepting the words of this man, this emperor.

"No need to waste time with flattery, you expressed the desire to return home in order to hasten our excommunication did you not, best to strike while the irons hot as they say and round up your horses and men and all those who wish not to live in these ’godforsaken’ lands and head home to the golden pastures and sacred sites of your Principality."
"But..."
Tut
Raising his hand up, Julius shut down any possible reply, and as his Praetorian units moved to extract these men from the hall he could over hear quite the disturbance and excessive profanity being expelled from the mouth of the lead Cardinal.
