Quorum Adjudication

The Adjudication

The formal ruling session, delayed by Ferdinand in the rafters, during which Victory checked the financial feed.

Story so far

Baroness Victory used the adjudication as cover: while everyone waited for Sir Ferdinand to come down out of the rafters, she checked the financial feed and confirmed that a transaction large enough to buy two ships had cleared in the Nagas system despite the apparent chaos there.

She stresses to Rosetta that this does not compromise her duties as adjutant — she will not cheat nor help anyone else cheat, and any information she gives about in-dungeon rulings must go through warlords Carl or Princess Donut. Nobody outside can see what is really happening anymore, but transactions and their amounts remain visible.
