Iota's party is going strong but the time has come for it to switch from Iota's birthday to celebrations for Dante Balboni. You see RF knew that Dante was a very low key character so if he told CLs and GFs to come for Dante he would not of got half the turn out he has tonight.

Dante, the night is dragging on and I must make it worthwhile. I am tired as hell, hungry as hell - we should never have got Burger King to eat.

Now that is a life not all can say they have experienced. For better or for worse it hasn't been a bad one. He has not only stepped into an underboss role but he has flourished in it. And the man that recommended him for this role also has something to say, but it appears he has been drinking the booze and has informed me he is going for the shorter option.

Jim welcome back to the stage.

This lad he has worked hard for New Orleans - no wait wrong city - Chicago. We worked together in Iota's family and then as underbosses when I was with that city has my respect, and I'm sure he will achieve greater things in time to come.

Short, sweet and to the point. This is going better than I anticipated. Iota you care to share a few words?

I won't keep you long, as everyone knows these days I am well busy. Having had the pleasure of working with many fine people in Chicago, Dante is certainly up there with the best of them. Reaching a year is no easy task and it is a testament to your qualities as a person and a Leader. Dating back all the way to when Deimne first took us in when we were young pups, we have risen through the ranks simultaneously and it is a pleasure to stand beside you today having come so far.

I take my Burger King hat off to you!

Since all you people are either too drunk RF glares at Deimne or on the prowl for a new "acquaintance" - Mercury - I will wrap it up early. And open the floor once again for any well wishes towards my mate, no, our mate Dante "Under the Radar" Balboni

"This is a great day for Chicago, not just one but two birthdays. You deserve this moment Dante, you are a great man and I enjoyed working in Chicago with you and look forward to the future. Happy Birthday mate and I wish you all the best on your big day."

Saul smiles.

"So lets celebrate!"

A great day for chi I hope you two celebrate to the max and wish many more

Happy Birthday Dante, I am honored to be working along side one of Chicago's finest! Continued success on everything you work to achieve, Happy Birthday!

Happy birthday Dante and Iota, to achieve this milestone is no small feat congratulations to you both and i wish you all the very best for the future :)

Don Dante,,  I had the privilege of moving to back to Chicago and working as your RH while Don Raptor was taking care of some personal business and during my time I found you to be a very intelligent, caring, passionate and generous Don, and Chicago is better for having you there.  You have made it to a milestone in this business and I wish you nothing but more success for years to come.

"Dante, I surely didn't see this coming my friend. Our ancestors have exchanged words in the past and It makes me happy to see yet another old been reach their one year. Congratulations my friend nicely excecuted as I am pretty sure only yourself and a few of your friends were aware that your year birthday was coming".

Diablos takes a breath

"But I am sure that many of us definitely wasn't expecting it. Well done and well deserved my friend".

A figure moves in the shadows listening to the words said today. Taking a moment he decides against his better judgement to step out into the street

Ah yes the past year has been interesting enough to say the least. Many wars and lots of death, god knows how I managed to miss it all.

Now if you'll all excuse me, I've been out in the open for far too long now and need to go back to my shadows.

After listening to Dante speak, Fallen decides to share a few words.

Being in this family for quite ahwile now, and it's an honor working alongside you. I'm very proud to call you my boss and a friend, Dante. Congratulations on the milestone, hope to see many more in future, well done!
