Role

Chapter 4

The Galdonian guards gathered for the induction ceremony. Provincial
Sylvus, after receiving recommendations, has decided to appoint Atrael a
Magistrate of Galadon. Atrael was beaming with pride and stared in
disbelief at his new and shiny badge.

As he began his watch, however, Atrael started to sense that there was much
discord within the Spire. Nephinae, a talented shapeshifter and a
Magistrate, was itching for a promotion to a Provincial and began to make
demands from the Provost, threatening to leave the Blood Tribunal. Pysolos,
a former Magistrate, was calling for the removal of the Provost through an
election. Others spoke ill of the Provost. "None of this really belongs in
the Blood Tribunal," Atrael thought, "not in the place of strucutre and
quasi-militant hierarchy." Instead of being discouraged by this negativity,
Atrael took it upon himself to start bringing Magistrates closer together
and supporting the Provost - the leader of the Blood Tribunal. Squelch the
gossip, replace negativity with support. If someone made a mis-step, guide
them and do not expose the error as to avoid embarassment. Atrael hoped
that with this touch, things would start to glue together, brick by brick,
decision by decision.
