Re: Curia Session II - 194 BC

Consul Furius Pavo steepled his fingers as he observed debate, discussion, and even recommendations offered. It felt good to see a functional Senate once more where petty grievance was no longer King. He leaned over to his fellow Consul and a few whispers were exchanged. With a nod, Furius Pavo addressed the Senate before him.
Conscript Fathers,
Based on the discussions and thoughtful recommendations here, I have amended the proposed law as follows. It is no small part to Quinctilius Varus’ honesty and Roman virtue during our competitive election that I feel comfortable and confident to pen his name to this law. May we all seek to work alongside our former rivals and serve Rome together.
Allectus Fabius Maximus, having made himself open to serving Rome in a military capacity shall be my Naval legate against the tyrant Nabis. He was one quote at home aboard the vessel on our way to Carthage, if I recall.
Proceed to the vote.
