1 - The Gala

Celebrations of the grand day of exaltation.
There is a motion to repeal the Primogenitor law that says only men can succeed the throne.

Prior to this week, the lady Martella Lotheed sent a letter to each of us.

Inviting us all to the exaltation gala, formally as her aides but more broadly as her guests
Each given a family crest for the Voratas family, long extinct. Must be publicly displayed. lets us communicate.

She has tasks she requires of each of us.
Her relatives will be there, of outdated political views.

• Stavian is to sour her brothers fancy wine
• Marius is to spy on the Strategos Pythareus, worry that his opposition to this vote might lead him to do something drastic.
• Pomeroy is to convince Baron Okerra to side with the progressives, he's currently a swing vote.
• Clement is to talk to the Countess Pace and Duke Centimus

There are rules at the senate, where the party is held. No heavy armor, magical items require approval. Ceremonial swords are fine, but will be bound. No animals and stay out of the offices.

Stavian put in some influence in the servants quarters.

Commotion in the courtyard as the princess herself arrives. She gives a speech
There's a server leaving the crowd, hand clenched on something. Moving toward the aviaries.
Basically a smelling salt to piss off the bees.

Wooed the crowd in the Senate Floor, can now use Diplomacy anywhere
Perdita impressed Judge Mercenian, got a ring.

Marius overheard a concerning bit from Pythareus -- after tonight all of our succession troubles will be over, now I must depart.

Martella invited us to the gallery to check in.
