What Did Tiberius Accomplish

To Titus Tiberius Lupus

Welcome to Rome, the Eternal city. In a place where the streets are running thick with wine, blood, scandal, ambition, and lust, events happen so quickly that rising to power one day and falling the next is expected. Sweet words, honeyed speeches, and purses of money might milk your way to the top, but one wrong move and it's all over. This is a place where one forges alliances to survive and where enemies can seem as friends until they stab your back. A place where lust and wine are entwined so quickly that marriages are made and dissolved in months. A place where Caesar fights the Senate for his power while trying to find those he can trust. 
Welcome to Rome, the Eternal City.
Where will you go in such a place as this? Laden with correspondence obligations though he was, Manius always found the time to write his letters with care. This applied to existing and potential allies alike, choice of words being of double importance when one lacked the advantage of face-to-face communication. The note that was intended for Titus Tiberius Lupus was no exception. It was brought to Brittanica by a stoic and gruff-looking courier, fitting as it was for a former man of the legions to deliver a message meant for the eyes of a general. I, Manius Rutilius Cyprianus, served under you briefly as a junior officer when I first entered the legions. Then, as now, I was impressed with your talents as an officer, for which I am of the opinion that no one could be better suited to the task of overseeing the military aspects of romanizing Brittanica. Thus I hereby congratulate on your prestigious assignment as Defactor commander of our forces in Brittanica. I wish you speedy success in stabilizing and expanding the region and in conquering any barbarians that stand in your path. Speaking of success, your already considerable progress in civilizing the north has made yours a popular name throughout the empire as of late.
