  • In section 2.4 it says that ''a period of 17 days must pass before the Petition shall be brought up again'', I assume you mean that as a waiting period until it can be brought before the government. Not that it cannot be mentioned? Should it be changed to something along the lines of "a period of 17 days must pass before the Petition shall be brought before the government again"?

    <+IH> There needs to be some constant to life that we can hold onto, something extremely difficult to find if we are constantly on the move.
    <@Vidarr> I hold onto the constant of change
    <+IH> How delightfully paradoxical.

    <@IH> Omega also suits you, it’s the symbol for electrical resistance.
    <@Delta> Are you saying I'm slow? :P
    <@IH> You were a component (see what I did there?) of the resistance in Wintreath, were you not?
