I feel like I want to ask questions about the Counted. Like, would Sayuri have any sway in speaking up in regards to Droplets being in the Hall?
Good poke! Not sure why I didn't get notified. If Sayuri isn't Counted herself, she could probably get permission to speak by sending a messenger to one of the members of your family who is to request it on your behalf.
So, she can't openly speak in this moment to support Droplets?Good poke! Not sure why I didn't get notified. If Sayuri isn't Counted herself, she could probably get permission to speak by sending a messenger to one of the members of your family who is to request it on your behalf.
Culturally it would be inappropriate to speak without being called upon, but you can just stunt you sending the runner and your family member calling upon you into your speech.So, she can't openly speak in this moment to support Droplets?
How would that work in the moment? Sorry, just trying to fully understand lol.Culturally it would be inappropriate to speak without being called upon, but you can just stunt you sending the runner and your family member calling upon you into your speech.
I do have a Loquacious Courtier Technique charm, but I don't know if that would be a help at all.
Oops! Sorry, I need to write more clearly. Let me try to add proper definitions for my made up words:Her gaze lingered on the boxes where the Counted were seated and she took a breath to suppress the chill up her spine and the rise of her nerves at the sight of them. This surely was an event of great importance in they had deemed it fit to attend.
At the moment the Speaker is calling on Sjet to report on the state of the fortress-manse, but we could retroactively insert your address before he called on Sjet?She sat in silence, her hands clasped in her lap as she listened to the others speak. She frowned in concern as the Speaker was interrupted by the Saint of Lore, who seemed not to pleased with Droplets' presence in the Hall. Within the next moment the room was in an uproar and Sayuri found herself reaching forward for her own bell, it's silvery tone echoing into the chamber as her eyes turned urgently onto the Speaker.
Oh, I didn't see you had posted. Sure if that makes sense.At the moment the Speaker is calling on Sjet to report on the state of the fortress-manse, but we could retroactively insert your address before he called on Sjet?
I think soOops! Sorry, I need to write more clearly. Let me try to add proper definitions for my made up words:
Counted: The name for the mortal body of legislators who make laws for Ombrelune. There's about 100 of them. The seats are auctioned every 5 years, and the proceeds used to fund public works. Most important families have at least one member amongst the Counted.
The Great Ancestors/Saints: The six powerful ancestor ghosts who have worked to protect Ombrelune for at least a millenia. They're venerated by large cults, and when necessary they possess specially prepared mortal Vessels to walk during the day or participate in ceremonies. So far the Saints of Valour, Venture, and Lore have been declared, but there are three others.
The Choir: The ghosts within the great mirror in the Hall of the Counted. These ghosts are a rowdy collection of ancestors whose half-mad whispers are only interpreted by certain trained priests of a special ancestor cult. They are said to have prophetic powers and great wisdom, and are consulted on important matters.
The four powerful ghosts in attendance (the ones I think you thought were the Counted) don't have a collective name - they're just powers in the Underworld of Ombrelune. They usually send representatives to watch the proceedings of the Counted, but tonight they've all come in person, which is a big deal.
Does that make sense?
Then go ahead and consider Sayuri acknowledged, perhaps called upon by one of her allies amongst the Counted, and edit that into your post. I can add any retroactive reactions if necessary.Oh, I didn't see you had posted. Sure if that makes sense.
Okay, would it be the Speaker that calls Sayuri to speak?Then go ahead and consider Sayuri acknowledged, perhaps called upon by one of her allies amongst the Counted, and edit that into your post. I can add any retroactive reactions if necessary.
