Motierre and Titus have all the time they need to argue, as the Dread Father feeds on the energy of their souls. >:D

Amaund was a member of the Elder Council. Surely he wanted to influence the law and such things, and thought the emperor too powerful. So, he had him killed. Perfect oportunity for the Dragonborn to assume the throne of the empire, actually. UP WITH THE DRAGONBLOOD EMPERORS!
