Transcript:
Buzz Aldridge: I hereby call to order this, the 222nd Assembly of the 7th High Council.
Buzz Aldridge: *taps the halberd on the flagstones three times*
Buzz Aldridge: The first item on the agenda concerns the 4th seat.
Buzz Aldridge: This letter was delivered by a young drow girl named Xune.
Buzz Aldridge: It was written in September.
Thrand Graywolf: *blinks*
Buzz Aldridge: *Pulls out a scroll...*
Buzz Aldridge: It reads...
Buzz Aldridge: "To all of my fellow Council members, and friends...
Buzz Aldridge: If you are receiving this letter, it is likely that I am no longer among the
Buzz Aldridge: living.
Buzz Aldridge: I instructed my apprentice, Xune, to deliver this in the event that I
Elfbjorn: *gasp*
Buzz Aldridge: did not return from my journey.
Buzz Aldridge: As I write this, I am preparing to seek out the very source of the
Buzz Aldridge: darkness threatening our beloved world, and combat it directly.
Buzz Aldridge: As you are reading this letter, you can expect, that I have failed.
Buzz Aldridge: *frowns*
Buzz Aldridge: [still reading from the letter] I only pray that my efforts have
Buzz Aldridge: at least weakened our enemy,
Buzz Aldridge: and that my sacrifice will not be in vain.
Galen: *shaking his head*
Buzz Aldridge: [still reading from the letter] It goes without saying that
Buzz Aldridge: I have relinquished my position representing
Buzz Aldridge: the Seat of Humility, and Magincia, by having this delivered.
Buzz Aldridge: I ask that my adjutant, Dragon Edge, take my place.
Buzz Aldridge: *looks at Dragon Edge*
Dragon Edge: *gasp*
Buzz Aldridge: There is so much more I want to say, so much more I wanted to accomplish
Buzz Aldridge: in my lifetime, but it would seem my time has ended.
Buzz Aldridge: Please, win this war, do not let my death be meaningless.
Buzz Aldridge: Don't allow this evil to destroy our beautiful world...
Buzz Aldridge: Goodbye, hopefully not forever, my friends...”
[Letter ends.]
Buzz Aldridge: And it's signed...
Buzz Aldridge: Ariana Winyala. 4th Seat, Magincia
Buzz Aldridge: *Sigh*
Buzz Aldridge: *Looks up from the letter...*
Buzz Aldridge: Ladies and gentlemen of the council, you are again tasked with
Buzz Aldridge: replacing one of your own.
Buzz Aldridge: Lady Ariana foresaw her death and has nominated Lord Dragon Edge as
Buzz Aldridge: her replacement as is her right.
Buzz Aldridge: Your job now is to vote either to accept or not Lady Ariana's
Buzz Aldridge: choice to replace her on the High Council.
Buzz Aldridge: Please vote "Aye" to accept or "Nay" to refuse.
Thrand Graywolf: Is he willing?
Buzz Aldridge: Lord Thrand?
Buzz Aldridge: Ahhh... a good point
Buzz Aldridge: *Chuckles*
Galen: Well if he's not all he's gotta do is get up and walk away.,...
Buzz Aldridge: Lord Edge?
Dragon Edge: If I wasn't willing, I wouldn't be sitting here
Buzz Aldridge: *nods*
Buzz Aldridge: Very well
[Buzz then begins to poll the Councilors for their votes.]
Buzz Aldridge: Lord Thrand?
Thrand Graywolf: Magincia needs all the help it can get, so aye.
Buzz Aldridge: *Nods*
Buzz Aldridge: Lady Merlynna?
Merlynna: Compassion says Aye.
Buzz Aldridge: Lord Galen?
Galen: Aye
Buzz Aldridge: Joylah?
Joylah: Yew and Justice say aye.
Buzz Aldridge: Lady Leeda?
Leeda: Honor votes Aye
Buzz Aldridge: *Smiles Sadly*
Buzz Aldridge: I hereby call this vote official.
Buzz Aldridge: The vote is unanimous in favor of Lord Dragon Edge.
Buzz Aldridge: Congratulations M'Lord. Would you care to address the assembly?
IronHorse: *applauds*
Galen: *claps*
Dragon Edge: Sure
Maggie Stweart: *claps*
Merlynna: *claps*
Dragon Edge: I do wish the circumstances were better for me to recieve this position
Dragon Edge: But i also Believe Lady Ariana can be abit overdramatic
You see: Cooter
Dragon Edge: She is alot tougher then she gives herself credit for
Dragon Edge: Until I see a corpse, I refuse to believe she has passed on
Dragon Edge: but as for her wishes, I am honored to take the seat
Buzz Aldridge: I hope you're refusal bears fruit
Dragon Edge: Hopefully. My effort will help Magincia and all of Brittannia
Dragon Edge: thank you all
Buzz Aldridge: Thank you and congratulations again!
Buzz Aldridge: The second announcement is that I will be sending out application
Buzz Aldridge: instructions for the position of Grand Marshal of the High Guard
Buzz Aldridge: on the Stratics' LS Boards within the next day or two.
Buzz Aldridge: (My apologies for the delay - technical difficulties)
Buzz Aldridge: Do any Councilors have any items that did not make tonight's agenda?
Galen: *raises hand*
Buzz Aldridge: Lord Galen?
Galen: [I give Joylah a poke as I pass by her to the front of the table.]
Joylah: *giggles*
Galen: I saw an odd and....mildly disturbing sight the other day.
Galen: At the Yew Moongate in Felucca, I saw a recruitment book
Galen: for....A Trammel-based brigand guild.
Buzz Aldridge: Hmmm....
Thoron Sul: Damned brigands
Galen: The thought of criminals in our land recruiting the
Galen: kin and friends of criminals in the OTHER land is mildly disturbing,
Galen: and I figured worth a mention.
Cora: Its a shame at this time the last GM resigned
Buzz Aldridge: That's a bit on the brash side...
Galen: Perhaps Chancellor but....Well it's not without precedent.
Galen: But not typical.
Buzz Aldridge: Aye
Galen: Hence my....mild warning to everyone about the occurrence.
Galen: And I'm sure we'll have another Grand Marshal....
Galen: And in the meantime,
Cora: Why dont you lead a defense against them Lord Galen
Galen: there's no shortage of people in the lands with fighting skills.
Galen: Leading a defense against a guild that maybe hasn't formed yet and definitely
Galen: hasn't attacked seems a bit much.
Galen: Thank you Chancellor.
Cora: Just seems like something you woul.d do
Cora: thats all
Buzz Aldridge: Thank you for the warning...
Buzz Aldridge: Any other announcements from the Council?
Buzz Aldridge: Very well
Buzz Aldridge: Would anyone else care to address the assembly?
Elfbjorn: Perhaps you could dispatch the guard to confirm Ariana's passing?
Dragon Edge: what guard
IronHorse: what guard would that be?
[There was a single Guardsman in attendance. The first duty of the new Grand Marshal, whomever it may be, is effectively going to be to rebuild the Guard.]
Galen: Since we don't know where she went.....
Galen: And if she went where I'd guess she went,
Cora: the guard doesnt exist anymore
Galen: no way in Hell am I sending anybody in there.
Buzz Aldridge: Once we have a Field Marshall again, that will be an excellent idea
Galen: Actually before we adjurn..
Buzz Aldridge: Yes?
Cora: Galen you would fit in just perfect
Cora: if that is where she went
Galen: Anybody else with the idea of fighting evil at its source....
Cora: you could lend somepeople in
Galen: That is a laudable idea but.....Not the best one.
Cora: Im sure noone would miss you if you was to die
Galen: Evil doesn't really have a source per se, it's just there.
Joylah: I'm sure you would be mistaken.
Galen: You could kill The Devil himself and it'd still exist.
Cora: well except for your wife
Galen: That's all Chancellor.
Cora: *Smirks*
Buzz Aldridge: Very well
Leeda: Raises hand
Elfbjorn: Lightness, Darkness, one cannot exist without the other.
Buzz Aldridge: Yes Leeda?
Leeda: I just remembered
Leeda: that before
Leeda: we were attacked
Leeda: that
Leeda: farmer Ham
Cora: Look you have two gurads now
Leeda: was acussed
Leeda: of stealing
Leeda: I feel we should follow up on that in the furure
Buzz Aldridge: A good point
Thrand Graywolf: I thought it was the pig
Merlynna: *chuckles*
IronHorse: send ham to me
IronHorse: I have need of labor on my new mansion
Joylah: *lifts a slender brow mildly*
Buzz Aldridge: Oh...?
Leeda: Not sure he is guilty
Cora: *Stares at Joylah*
Merlynna: *snorts like a pig*
IronHorse: well 30 days on the rock pile wouldn't hurt him regardless
Branwyn ap Gwien: What about the pig?
Cora: Gut it
IronHorse: I'll take care of the pig
Dragon Edge: Dinner for 9?
Cora: filthy swine
Buzz Aldridge: *shakes head*
Buzz Aldridge: I sense the meeting is de-evolving...
Buzz Aldridge: *Chuckles*
Leeda: hehehe
Maggie Stweart: *chuckles*
IronHorse: plenty of charcoal about these days
Buzz Aldridge: Anyone else care to speak?
Buzz Aldridge: (Versus ordering from a menu)
Buzz Aldridge: Very well
Buzz Aldridge: I hereby bring this, the 222nd Assembly of the 7th High Council to a close.
Buzz Aldridge: Long Live Britannia!
