Athens: Capital City of the Newly formed Hellenic League. The King ponders the next move of the league while reading reports and messages. One of them suddenly catches his attention. Upon reading, his' face turns grim. He beckons a messenger to come in. "You called, my king?" "Yes. I have received troubling reports from the north... Tell the army to attack the Old roman provinces in Croatia, before moving in to assist the Goths in the war against the Franks. And, if possible, capture the Vandal territories around the Adriatic sea... "It will be done, my king." The Messenger leaves, while the king reaches for the latest reports concerning the north-eastern front... You forgot my previous attack ya know... So maybe my new amount of territories gained should be counted into my new attack as well...

Couldn't have said it better myself... The Hellenic League readily accept your offer.

Athens: Capital City of the Newly formed Hellenic League. A group of Messenger stand ready beside the king, who is almost hidden behind a gigantic stack of documents concerning state affairs. "What are your orders, my king?" "Yes, take a message to the Gothic King. Tell him that we are offering a cessation of hostilities between our nations, to focus on the Hunnic threat." "Yes, my king." "And you, take a message to the Persian Shah. Tell him that we accept his terms." "It will be done, my king." "The army is to attack the huns around the black sea. And lastly, Send another message to the Vandals; they have been leaderless ever since King Solidbatman abdicated the throne... Tell them once again that one of their old kings wish their fealty once more." "Understood, my king. Glory to the League."

Athens, Temporary capital of the once mighty Eastern Roman Empire: Akropolis: Rows upon rows of Soldiers stand arrayed at the square, staring up at the cliff of the majestic Parthenon. At the top, a human figure stand, wrapped in a heavy white cloak and wearing shiny imperial armour. When he gestures with his arms, everything goes silent. "Soldiers! Constantinople has fallen, and the empire is in tatters! Barbarians are rampaging throughout the land, pillaging and destroying whatever they find!" "I'm certain that all of you have felt the effects of this war... We have lost so much. Home! Family! Friends! Nothing is Sacred to these Huns; these howling barbarians! And yet no-one is resisting them! The Goths are too occupied mindlessly flailing at us, while the rest of Europe is busy fightning eachother! Only the Sassanids to the South are considering movement towards them, and that might not be enough!" "To get to the heart of the matter, we must stop the huns! Forget the fall of Jerusalem, forget Eastern Rome! When the historians write about these events a thousand years from now on, will they write about a stagnant people desperately clinging to old glory; or will they write about us!? Eastern Rome is gone, long live the Hellenic League!!" A mighty cheer rises up from the square, as the soldiers depart to battle. With new weapons, armour, and officers, the broken armies of eastern rome, are no more. King Kata turns to the commanders behind him, and start to hurriedly give out orders: "Send messengers to the Sassanids, tell them that we seek an alliance with them against the Huns." "yes, my king" "We cannot fight the huns, unless we take out the Goths first. Tell the armies to counterattack the Gothic army, anywhere possible." "Yes, my king" "And lastly, send a messenger to the Vandals... Tell them that one of their old kings seeks their allegiance once more." "But my king, why attempt to ally with the Sassanids, who are partly responsible for our downfall in the first place?" "Simply because that to win, we need more soldiers, not grudges. While I would have preferred an alliance with the Goths as well, they are currently a pressing matter, and we need to defend against them. Preferably by recapturing our lost territory." "Yes, My king!" "May the lord watch over us, in our hour of need. Glory to the league." *The Eastern Roman provinces are no longer part of the empire, and are now the Hellenic league, Which colour will be white (Proper white, unlike the chinese beige*

In that case, I look forward to seeing this unfold, as I move to the spectator-bench. Good luck to ye all...

A king should know when he have and doesn't have enough strength to protect his' people. Also, "A house divided cannot stand." Something thst you romans should see fit to ponder... So be it. And before I fade into obscurity, I just wish that I could do more for my people...
