Lucius Licinius Lucullus laughed at Cinna's perplexity,
"Whats this?" said Lucullus mockingly, "Do nothing? You mean the provinces can take care of themselves without constant intervention from the Senate? Oh my!"

"Indeed Cinna, either pass the legislation empowering Cimber with the powers of Propraetor while the fate of Atrebas is uncertain, or simply allow the change of command in Aegyptus to take its effect. I VASTLY prefer the former. With Aegyptus in such turmoil I believe it would be quite stabilizing for the Senate to proclaim that it recognizes Cimber as holding all the powers of Praetor until Atrebas is found. Indeed, I believe this to be of such importance that I ask, beg, the consul Aulius to put the Senatus Consultum Iulia de Propraetura Cimberis to immediate vote."
