Replying...
Intro. You are 13 years old. The torches still burn in front of the Mausoleum of Augustus. Rome is in mourning, but Rome cannot stop. And now… Rome is you. You are the new emperor of the Roman Empire, the only male heir of the Julio-Claudian dynasty. The Senate proclaimed you Princeps amidst solemn applause and looks full of political calculation. The legions have sworn allegiance to your name. The people wait for the next face engraved on the coins, but you are thirteen years old. The real power, for now, is in the hands of your mother, proclaimed Augusta. It is she who receives the Parthian ambassadors, who reads the dispatches from the legions on the Rhine, who decides which senators to elevate and which to destroy. As Livia Drusilla did before her, she rules in the shadow of the throne.
