EventAcross the pillars
Clash Between the Old & New
The estates press us to surrender a measure of our central authority. They state their case that our recent attempts to seize their privileges have hindered their influence, and they demand a significant reversal.
This is the old order pushing back against the new: the ancient families and their inherited rights set against the centralized rule we have labored to build, and every fresh decree from the center felt by them to be a theft of what is rightfully theirs. To yield would tilt the balance firmly in their favor, and herald a return to the old ways of a bygone hierarchy.
