King Blackthorn: Welcome governors and citizens to this month's Council meeting.
King Blackthorn: We have a lengthy agenda for this meeting, so let's get started.
King Blackthorn: If a governor will not be able to attend a meeting of the Council,
King Blackthorn: Contact my secretaries (Elizabella@uoem.net and Malachi@uoem.net.)
King Blackthorn: If you would like to make a request for assistance with an event,
King Blackthorn: it should be sent to Lord Raine (UORaine@gmail.com).
King Blackthorn: He has a cottage with a mailbox in northwest Britain, near the North Side Inn.
King Blackthorn: I see that two governors were unable to be here tonight.
Dr Jerred DeSule: *looks over his shoulder at scratching noises and rolls his eyes*
King Blackthorn: Would anyone like to speak for one of their towns this evening?
Misstery: *takes some popcorn from Mr E*
King Blackthorn: Now I invite each governor to give a State of the Town status report,
Qualark Ventes: *pats Skattles on the head*
King Blackthorn: With each governor yielding the floor to the next in line. the floor to the next in line.
You see: decorative carpet
King Blackthorn: We will start from Britain this meeting. Governor Warner, you have the floor.
Dot Warner: Thank you, Your Majesty.
Dot Warner: Britain enjoyed a merry Yuletide season, the citizens are content, and our coffers are full.
Dot Warner: I'll be hosting the Fifth Annual Trans-Britannia Derby on Wednesday, January 31st at 8pm starting in mainland Skara Brae.
Dot Warner: Hopefully, the brigand situation will be resolved by then...
Mr E: *flicks popcorn at Jennifer*
Dot Warner: This year's grand prize will be a choice of premium mounts: Lasher, Windrunner or a Charger of the Fallen.
Dot Warner: Please see the announcement on the Tribune for all the details.
Dot Warner: That is all I have for this session. Thank you, Your Majesty. I yield to Governor Jennifer-Marie.
Skattles II: *sniffs skull curiously*
Jennifer-Marie: *makes a mental note to have Mr E added to the "Wanted" list at the Trinsic jail*
Skattles II: *bites at the flames*
Kal'iksix Viaxus: *Side glances the dog*
Jennifer-Marie: *clears her throat* Trinsic enjoyed a lovely Yuletide, as well, and plans are in motion for this year's Governor's Easter Egg Hunt.
Skattles II: *sniffs Talith's robe*
Skattles II: *chews on table leg*
Skattles II: *tilts head and wags tail*
Skattles II: Bark!
Kal'iksix Viaxus: *tosses meat to the floor*
Jennifer-Marie: Governor Farrah has obligingly offered up Skara Brae for this year's Hunt, and we are working closely to ensure the second year goes smoothly.
Jennifer-Marie: More details will be presented both to His Majesty, all Governors, and the citizens closer to the celebration.
Jennifer-Marie: Beyond that, Trinsic is faring well, with trade deals up and our gold reserves sound.
Jennifer-Marie: With that, I yield to Governor Kittie. *nods*
Kittie: *wakes from her cat-nap*
Kittie: Oh! My!
Kal'iksix Viaxus: *rolls her eyes*
Mr E: *tosses up popcorn and catches it in mouth*
Kittie: Moonglow is doing quite well and plans are underway for the Verity Isle Holiday Ball!

Kittie: *scratches behind her ear a bit*
Kal'iksix Viaxus: *nods to Kalan'im*
Kittie: And for Jhelom, my brother has plans underway for the people. And in a recent poll, the people are thrilled to have their Governor again.
Kittie: That's all I really have. *yawns&
Kittie: I pass the floor to the lovely and fair Farrah.
Farrah: Good evening everyone *nods to the King* Skara enjoyed a lovely holiday season!
Farrah: The townfolk are in good spirits and doing well.
Farrah: As Jennifer has said, this year the Easter hunt event will
Farrah: be held in Skara

Farrah: *nods*
Qualark Ventes: *nods in thanks*
Qualark Ventes: Thank you. A pleasure to be among you all
Qualark Ventes: Vesper's financial situation, profits, and opportunities are in dire straits.
Qualark Ventes: The coffers have almost been completely depleted... no doubt due to governance by..
Qualark Ventes: well. a dog... not that I blame the dog, of course.
Qualark Ventes: He did his best? I'm sure?
Mr E: *chuckles*

Qualark Ventes: trade deals. It shall be at 7PM Central and gates will be provided.
Qualark Ventes: I am also writing tenants of trade and commerce by which I think our merchants should use

Tanda: I am looking forward to an active spring
Tanda: as I continue to research our
Tanda: history with Julia

Skattles II: mrwf?
Magnus Grey: *coughs*
Misstery: *snarls*
Magnus Grey: Your majesty. Governors.
Magnus Grey: We are currently looking into several matters on the northern route between Minoc and Yew.

Skattles II: *wags tail*
Kittie: *hisses at Skattles*

Skattles II: *paws at his chair and whines*
King Blackthorn: I look forward to reading the history that you and Julia are compiling,
King Blackthorn: though, of course, I realize that such research takes time.
