"Well, there would be many duties to perform, as well as responsibilities to undertake." cited Riconus, the last of his wine finding its way to the back of his mouth. "As Prefect of Portshire, you would be charged with recovering the security and peace of the city, as well as creating your own initiatives to find and capture criminals. Your powers would include making recommendations on sentences for the thieves and pirates we will be apprehending, coordinating the training schedules and mobilization of your Constables, and generally restoring the people's faith in Portshire's justice system.
As a Commander in the Sapphire Guard, however..." Riconus finally put down his glass for the first time in the meeting, and centered all attention towards his next words. "You will be a high-ranking member of the Aelyrian Empire's most prominent militia. You will be required to serve with the thousands of other Guardsmen when a community in our Empire requires our service, and be an example to all other soldiers under your command in Portshire. The example you must demonstrate will be simple- that you are an Aelyrian citizen, and you will do whatever it takes to defend what the Gods have granted you. Because you are part of the Guard, we will be able to provide for you reserve troops should you feel Portshire requires extra support for an operation, as well as a considerable stripend on any and all spoils we recover during our campaigns."
