If I am and one of them is, they still have the power to deal with it. There is no possible precaution against widespread corruption. But I trust the set of councilors that I have put in place and I myself do not plan to waver from my way anytime soon.” He said with a small chuckle, “It is my hope, my vision, that in time the people will adopt this new way and shun the old.

In the rising against his rule, we did a good job of decimating his firmest supporters, but we did not get all of them. There are enough people who gained power, wealth, and influence by his hand that they are not keen to see him toppled.” He waved a hand and pushed himself from the seat so that he was standing, “These are details for the ‘morrow.
