Union News Turn 2

Have you heard the Acting Chancellor of the college killed his predecessor? I knew the college was cut throat, but I think that’s taking things a bit too far.

It appears the Marshall has been investigating the death of the previous chancellor. While there has been no official word from the office of Marshalls, the depth and length of the investigation means most people are classifying the death as suspicious. Naturally people are saying the acting Chancellor was the one who done it, cause you know he’s got the most to gain.

Please put in your turnsheet how you plan to vote on these bills. One vote per clan!

A Proposal For Election to the Closed Council

Chancellor Bastian Velen of the College of Horizons wishes to make known his application to the Closed Council of the Union. Using his scientific and administrative knowledge, he promised to help guide the Union towards a modern, safe and effective future.

Amendment 1: Proposed by Madison Bourne

Though Clan Leader Madison Bourne of the New Dawn Party respects the Chancellor's scientific knowledge and integrity, he proposes that the administration of the Union is inherently flawed and invites corruption. He proposes that the common person needs someone representing them upon the Closed Council, and volunteers himself for that position. If elected, he promises to cut out corruption and waste from the Union.

-Extract from a pamphlet printed with the new presses.

There has been printing in the Union for a long time, and although it has been acceptable for most small scale jobs, the output of these presses has not been enough for mass publication of any sort of document.

It appears that Madison Bourne has acquired advanced printing presses from the fallen. These presses will be able to print documents in large numbers. It has been suggested that the closed council is none to happy about this development, that the circulation of information need to be carefully controlled , and that newly formed sensationalist newssheets are only going to spread panic and discord amongst the Union.

Does Viet Vujagig, proprietor of the Union's greatest and most comprehensive library, know something that we don't?
