Here be Paralepipedo Pluscuamperfecto's notes on the Debate for the Legature on Hray 23rd IY 7789.  Thank this Nadiri for his glorious service recording "The Process"! And don't forget to vote!  -Haknar

PART ONE

Candidate Buster seeks to invest labor into Arslan to exploit resources before they rot!

Candidate Dudley seeks to fortify Arslan first, rebuild infrastructure second.

Candidate Buster speaks of Shadows that emerged from Arslan.  Candidate Dudley calls him out on them!

Dame Onion loves the Drama.

Candidate Buster clarifies he means the Seekers After Death.

Onion Asks about Qaimmi attacks and what the Candidates intend to do about those.

Candidate Dudley says she'll build a DEATH RAY to SMITE the Qa'immi machine.  Exquisite answer.

She also says "More War" And "Figure Out who's been bringing all these listening devices."  No idea what that means!

Candidate Buster says war against Qa'im will not be fought with soldiers and war machine, but with histeria and stumbling!

Claims there is a conspiracy at the heart of governance, who is brining evil machines into the Well!  How Horrid!

We must poke out the probing eyes of weakness from our over-extending selves!  Yes.. Candidate Buster says he will fight Qa'immi fire with Tlonsiyan fire, and hire them to build him an even better death ray...

Author's commentary:
I kind of ship these two, I think they;d make a cute couple.  Onion asks about Taxes!

Candidate Buster says he'll cut down on Government titles.  Says they're silly and cost too much money.  An Apothar who's name I do not know drank a whole bottle of Rosewine, disgrunted by this.  The Author wishes he too, had alchohol.

Says the government exists to serve the people, and that Taxes can be as changing as the Win.  Very Poetic.

Candidate Dudley says she will lower property taxes so they get used, but says she needs to look at the numbers before moving anything around.  Gods, they're perfect for each other.  Like fried turnip chips and rat nacho cheese.

She's ambivalent on board taxes and title!.  Boring!  Unlike Buster, who is not boring.  Yin and Yang here, people!

Dudley says raise she'll raise the Voice!



PART TWO

Candidates seem to agree on giving voices to the people who went on an island trip together.
Very generous!  Also, maybe warming up to each other? Ho ho!

Buster says raising the voice is silly because it makes the rich richer and the poor uh, not have a good time.

Dudley says the poor do not bring Prosperity to Ephia's Well!  So much for the unwashed working masses, I guess!

The Governor of Arslan says "We got some Killer Adventurers here, we've got the Best Killers around, Everyone will have a Killer Adventurer when I'm governor..."

Buster says the Refugees do everything in the Well, Dudley says they're just lazy bums that don't deserve to live.

They gaze deeply into each others eyes...

Dudley asks what Buster thinks of the Creep!

Buster says they're part of the Well and ignoring them brings Catosrophe!

The audience said Dudley has a secret plan to gas the creepfolk. Dastardly...

The Audience yearns for the gas...

Dudly says nobody will be sad if they gas the Creep, because they're all wyrmists and necromancers.

The AUdience claims the merit earning of the Voice never actually happens before beneficiaries are assassinated before it can happen.

Two people lined up for questions.

A man called Kasu asked what the candidates would do for the people in the Stockades.

Dudley says she;ll hire them all.
Astounding!

Dudley also wants to move the Stockades inside the walls.  Ambitious!
Will need many porters.

Buster says he'll improve the Stockades with good project management practices, maybe some agile planning? 
Who knows.

An ashfolk in purple asked what do the candidates think Ephia's Role will be in the new Caliphate.

Buster says he thinks the Well should continue to gather refugees.

He also says it'll be a crossroads of trade, or something.  Great for my brews and wands!

Dudley says Ephia's Well got the Water, so they are the Caliphate. Bold!

Also She says she expects everyone to try to kill us for them.  Very convincing.
