Auris & Imperius
Auris Auris
I see you’re surrounded by those antique maps—do you ever imagine how a medieval cartographer’s perspective could help us draft a winning courtroom strategy?
Imperius Imperius
The map shows the battlefield, so the courtroom is just another field. Treat the judge as terrain, the opposing counsel as the enemy, and the client’s facts as your troop. Anticipate three moves ahead: 1) lay the evidence like a supply line, 2) block the opponent’s key argument, 3) seize the jury’s attention at the decisive moment. If you treat the case as a strategy, victory is inevitable.
Auris Auris
Your chessboard is well plotted, but remember the judge’s pawns can shift unexpectedly—keep a backup line in your ledger for those silent moves.
Imperius Imperius
Acknowledged. I’ll slot a contingency into the ledger and keep the other pawns in reserve for when the judge’s hand moves. No surprises, just a calculated shift.
Auris Auris
Ledger’s updated, good. Keep an eye on the judge’s bluff—he rarely follows the script. If the jury shifts, remember: a silent move can still win the game. Score: 8/10 for the strategy, 7/10 for the contingency.
