A few days ago, in Serpent's Hold, there was a meeting between the leaders of 4 major cities. Present were Mayor Saurun of Britain, Mayor Gargish Dragon of Yew, Mayor Orchid of Trinsic and Zym Dragon founder of Rivendell.
+
While strolling through the Counselor's Hall on Serpent's Hold last eve, I spied two figures speaking quietly in the center of the room. As I continued on my way, I realized one of the figures was covered in a green robe. A Seer! I backed into the shadows, curious as to what was being discussed.
  
A written report about that meeting can be found in the Town Cryer. Here I present you the full text of all that was said at that meeting.
+
As I watched these two converse about trivial issue, others started to arrive. The Seer even opened a gate for many of them to arrive. I knew not who these people were, but they were dressed in the finest garb. Something was definitely happening here, and I was determined to find out what.

+
Under the Seer's direction, the group divided up based on their dress and positioned themselves below me, toward the back of the room. The Seer walked to the table in front of the room, and announced, much to my surprise: "Ladies and Gentlemen, members of the councils...Your lord and liege, Lord British!"
  
Lord British: Allow me to introduce Lady Laura... she is a member of the castle guard and was assigned by Sir Geoffrey to accompany me tonight.
+
The king walked in, with a guard in tow, and greeted Seer Nikademus warmly. Nikademus then proceeded to introduce the town councils of Britain, Rivendell, Trinsic, and Yew to the king. I watched in stunned silence as the king warmly greeted the heads of each council, along with heroes and scholars that I've only known by name until that moment. Among those present were Saurun, Emerald, Ce'Nedra Willow, Zym Dragon, Orchid, Nickola, Gargish Dragon, Thrawn, Dayel Stormcrow, Silver Dryad, Keuldan Vraal, Sagramore, Draconis, Xena Dragon, Marcus... to list a few. Each council presented Lord British with a gift: clothes, master-crafted armor, and fruit and wines from their towns.
  
Lady Laura: *nods* A pleasure to meet such fine company.

Lord British: This meeting was called on behalf of the Merchants of Britain though 'tis always a pleasure to meet those who work so hard for the good of the realm. The reason the merchants and shopkeepers are concerned is due to the conflict between the councils of Trinsic and Yew.
+
After the introductions, the king addressed them, his words bringing dread to my heart. He addressed the trouble brewing between Trinsic and Yew, and did so on behalf of the concerned Merchants of Rivendell. He spoke of the visions that have been troubling him of late, and how, when told of the problems between his towns, one of the visions became clear to him.
  
Keuldan Vraal: *frowns*
+
"One that came into focus though, when I heard of thy plight, was that the wrong doing is not at the hands of any here nor of any of thy ilk. To be certain, 'tis an outside agent of some sort. I can say that with supreme certainty, but I cannot divine the source. It shall be up to thee to determine those who try to sabotage thy works, But the rift between thee only furthers their cause. So I strongly suggest ye put such behind ye and seek to discover thy true enemy. And to begin this...I would pardon Vice-Mayor Nickola [of Trinsic], who had no part in what she was accused."
 
+
Furor: Here Here!
+
 
+
Lord British: Caught in the middle, they are suffering. But, I have not come to lay blame nor to point fingers. Verily, I do not know enough of the events to attempt such a thing as councils of Honor and of Justice, I expect news of these troubles would be of great interest, and I do bring news, though I know not exactly what it means in the visions of the past week have been many strange and puzzling images one that came into focus though when I heard of they plight was that the wrong doing is not at the hands of any here nor of any of thy like.

+
Seer Nikademus: *raises eyebrows*

Keuldan Vraal: *listens close*

+
Lord British: To be certain, 'tis an outside agent of some sort I can say that with supreme certainty but I cannot divine the source.

Gargish Dragon: *looks astonished*

Dayel Stormcrow: *glances across the aisle*

Seer Nikademus: *frowns*

Lord British: It shall be up to thee to determine those who try to sabotage thy works. But the rift between thee only furthers their cause.

Thrawn: *gasp*

Emerald: *smiles*

Razor: [The Phantom, TSG]

Nickola: *is speechless*

+
Keuldan Vraal: *looks relieved*
+
 
+
Gargish Dragon: *glances at Nickola*
+
 
+
Lord BritishSeer Nikademus shall be able to help thee, I'm certain
+
 
+
Seer Nikademus: *blushes* Thank ye, M'lord. I shall do my best to live up to that
+
 
+
Lord British: *smiles* I trust we can resolve this matter?
+
 
+
Seer Nikademus: *glances at the council leaders*
+
 
+
Saurun: Britain stands with you Majesty, as always.
+
 
+
Keuldan Vraal: Your will be done Liege!
+
 
+
Lord British: Ah.. the good seer has reminded me.. 'twas the Merchants of Rivendell
+
 
+
Emerald: *nods*
+
 
+
Thrawn: if the true culprit remains at large... I'm sure we can find them..
+
 
+
Orchid: I believe we can reach a sensible agreement
+
 
+
Lord British: Good good. I had no true doubt. Ye all seem strong in the virtues and seek them truly
+
 
+
Thrawn: though I am a bit embarassed at my decision to imprison Nickola now...
+
 
+
Lord British: I know not the details of that trial
+
 
+
Thrawn: *hangs his head*
+
 
+
Lord British: but I trust ye did what ye thought was necessary
+
 
+
Gargish Dragon: We were tricked by something evil, Justice
+
 
+
Thrawn: indeed, it seems...
+

Lord British: Aye, but now that you know that.. you may now pursue and defeat that evil
+
This caused quite a still among the councils, as the prisoner found guilty of murder was set free, and rejoined her fellow councilmen.
 
+
Orchid: I suppose we may have let our pride get in the way as well...
+
 
+
Lord British: Perhaps so
+
 
+
Saurun: Thou did as thy virtues lead you to believe was correct. No shame in that.
+
 
+
Lord British: Yet, to blindly follow is not the answer either. Each virtue tempers the rest
+
 
+
Saurun: *nods*
+
 
+
Seer Nikademus: *listens attentively*
+
 
+
Lord British: This is where true virtue lays, though 'tis not easily attained. Strive for such, and thou'lt not stray often nor far
+
 
+
Seer Nikademus: Mayhap more citizens will strive toward the Virtues, m'lord
+
 
+
Lord British: Aye
+
 
+
Seer Nikademus: T'would be a pleasure to see
+
 
+
Emerald: indeed it would
+
 
+
Keuldan Vraal: Verily tis our duty to teach them to do so
+
 
+
Xena Dragon: We need a common cause
+
 
+
Lord British: Indeed it would
+
 
+
Dayel Stormcrow: M'lord...do ye believe the evil come to Buc's Den is behind this conspiracy?
+
 
+
Lord British: Nay, that is larger and deeper than thy own foe, and feel relief that it is so
+
 
+
Dayel Stormcrow: *looks pensive*
+
 
+
Seer Nikademus: That isn't good to hear. The Councils must solve this then, before they are beset by two evils.
+
 
+
Emerald: *nods*
+
 
+
Lord British: *nods*
+
 
+
Xena Dragon: United we stand
+
 
+
Lord British: that would be my council to thee I thank all of thee for coming here
+
 
+
Keuldan Vraal: Our swords and lives are yours to command Lord to rid this land of evil
+
 
+
Lord British: Lady Laura and I must adjourn to duties elsewhere
+

Seer Nikademus: Thank ye for your time, m'lord

Jovar: Hail Lord British! Hail the King!

Lord British then put Seer Nikademus at the councils' disposal, to aid in the search for this secret organization. He warned that this matter should be quickly taken care of, lest they be faced with both this evil, and the trouble brewing in Buccaneer's Den. The king then took his leave, headed to Jhelom to settle some farmers' dispute over an animal.
