Just what in the hell are they talking about? All of this rambling and political maneuvering. Amen isn't the type to walk on eggshells. But, it's not like he has much to say. After all, he knows barely anything about the state of the kingdom. Thutmose... Just why did he choose Amen? Guilt? Is that even a good enough reason to risk your entire legacy? Amen hates wracking his brain about him. Before he knows it, Amen's missed the majority of the two viziers' discussion as he sat there lost in his thoughts. Something about bandits and grave robbers. Hey, that's a problem Amen can deal with.

[color=#FFD700]"Bandits huh? Zamonth and I can take care of that. Just tell us where they're hiding."[/color] He says, unabashed.

"Pharaoh, we are discussing the content of the speech." Aperel explains.

[color=#FFD700]"Hmm, we're still on that topic? Just write something up and I'll read off the paper."[/color]

"My dear Pharaoh, the speech is to be memorized and recited. Delivered in public to the masses. You can't simply 'read off the paper'. Now regarding the speech, if I may, the people may expect youth and exuberance but that can easily translate to inexperience. We'd be sowing a seed of doubt in their minds. The people need to assured that despite his youthful appearance, the Pharaoh is wise and will quell their inherent concerns regarding issues with agriculture and improvements to the standard of living. Play to their base desires. More importantly, we tackle the more subtle concerns that the nobles and those of the royal court may have. For any actual resistance would come from the upper echelons of society before the common man who is simply trying to live day to day. But I agree, keep the promises grounded in reality. Where I disagree is to have the Pharaoh come off as an eager and excitable fool."

This is hell. Amen gets up from his seat. [color=#FFD700]"Uhh, I need to use the latrine. Please continue."[/color] Amen tells them before exiting the room.
