{{name}} is a [[book]] added in patch 2.0.164.0 whose contents remain the same across runs. It is a written account of the 566th Annual Wardens' Moot. It was penned by [[Sheba Hagadias, Librarian of the Stilt]]. | |||
== Summary == | |||
The moot starts with several wardens giving reports of local attacks and fights between factions, recommending a course of action. One warden from the {{favilink|Rainbow Wood}} reported by request of the {{favilink|soupy sludge|plural}} there, but was driven away because of his {{favilink|waxflab}}. | |||
After the reports, the panel discussion ensued. Eight wardens led a discussion about " the ksars of the mountain folk and their employment of the spiked counterscarp". | |||
Once discussion has ended via "martial demonstration", the Chair allowed wardens to propose resolutions that must pass with majority vote. The initial proposal comes from a group who identifies themselves as the Quetzal Caucus. They propose only providing their services to "communities who are governed by democratic means, or who had communally voted to eschew such governance". Under this proposal, wardens who are in communities that do not fit these conditions will no longer be stationed there. This created a large controversy, eventually erupting into a fight between the Quetzal Caucus and an opposing group of wardens. The Chair deployed the sergeant-at-arms and their deputies to quell the dispute. | |||
The original resolution proposed by the Quetzal Caucus did not win majority vote and was not passed. The second resolution proposed by the opposing party to expel the members of the Quetzal Caucus also did not win majority vote and failed to pass. The resulting chaos forced the Chair to immediately end the 566th Annual Wardens' Moot. | |||

Twelve wardens ascended the rostrum and announced the formation of the 'Quetzal Caucus'. They proceeded to formulate their resolution, which called to restrict the provision of the Fellowship's services to only those communities who are governed by democratic means, or who had communally voted to eschew such governance. There was an uproar in the hall, and the Chair took several minutes to regain order. A point of information was requested as to the resolution's bearing on extant assignments. The speaker clarified that the proposal included the retraction of wardens from communities in violation of said criteria, at which point the hall erupted into bedlam once again.}} | Twelve wardens ascended the rostrum and announced the formation of the 'Quetzal Caucus'.
