Praetor Tarius indicated the scroll in his hand. “It’s a letter of recommendation, to be sent to the king in Lythnia upon my death. The role of Praetor is not a hereditary or elected position. The power of appointment lies with the king. But by tradition, he will almost certainly name whatever man I put forth as my successor. There are some among my advisors who suspect the seriousness of my condition and aspire to replace me when the time comes. They hope it is their name I will write here.”
