The very nature of Tartarus is a stain on the Republic reputation.
Tartarus isn't just a prison; it is a place where torture is employed not for the sake of extracting information or maintaining order, but as a means of intimidation and sadistic pleasure.
It is now quickly becoming a symbol of the darkest aspects of the Republic governance. And with it the fall of the image of the Republic
And if that is the only thing that happened because for the revelation of Tartarus then it could still be excused or pacified by other measures
But, there is another thing that happened after the revelation of Tartarus.
Within the grim confines of Tartarus resided a motley assortment of inmates.
Many were political adversaries of Boris, individuals who had dared to challenge the inner circle of the Senate.
Others were branded as enemies due to their perceived subversive actions against the Republic.
