Replying to Nobody

I don't really subscribe to Machiavellian morals, so it would have to be loved even if I lost the title/role... At least the plebs probably wouldn't kill me in my way out of office.

That's a good point, being loved may be a safer bet for a peaceful retirement.

Being feared could mean you have more power for longer.

I don't care for power or doing the kids of things that one needs to do to keep it.

Ride in on a wave of popularity 😉 haha... Actually that doesn't sound at all likely either.

Maybe it was an unwanted succession, father died and left you with the keys to the kingdom.
