Count Teema eyes the newcomer. Interesting, this one shows much potential.
"Let me formally introduce myself. I am Count Teema of Serenno. I have come to Cardia to formally pledge my alligance to the Empire. Since their seems to be no Imperial political wing, I have taken it upon myself to create and lead one. Of course, I will need protection from anti-Empire influences, but I will need more than one man. Perhaps you could train a consortion of 8 soldiers who would be contracted exclusively to me. What do you say? I am a man of high standing in the Empire, and I need protection. I feel confident in your abilties. Now tell me more about this strike force."
