Cyrus, listening to the speech and argument quietly for some time finally speaks up.
"It would seem that this Mali'ame who desires the position of Sohaer is the best choice of any mali'ame that I have seen. He knows the values that our state seeks to uphold, he speaks with soft tongue, but yet is not mali'aheral."
Cyrus pauses for a moment, breathing in again.
"For years we have deemed other peoples as lesser, because they simply could not comprehend nor efficiently complete our sacred ideal of progress. As painful as it may seem... we now know that at least one mali'ame has progressed upon his own volition to have the ability to uphold this value like any average mali'aheral. It is thus proven that mali'ame are capable of ascension in some regard and perhaps... for the sake of progress... we should consider Phaedrus for office of Sohaer in the event of no better candidate."
"Please, consider the reason why all of this- for lack of a better term- racism came to be. It was justified in the past- but are we so mentally crystallized that we now follow our old ways like religious zealots? Let it not be so! Let us consider all outcomes and options before coming to judgement. Let not predisposition gum up progress."
"There is much more that I can say... but I'll stop here for now." Cyrus finishes, awaiting either welcome responses or the wrath of those around him.
