[QUOTE="Malacat, post: 1234764, member: 14528"] Tsaran finished writing a note to himself and spoke again. "I would be happy to begin work with our custodes. It is work to which I am well-suited by inclination as well as experience. As acting turb captain, I feel that it would be wise for me and a sizable group of our custodes to accompany Brigitta on her expedition. Her work there will be critically important, and it seems wise to do our best to ensure she is not interrupted." "I have a suggestion regarding certámen amongst ourselves. It seems a pity to spend vís when the match is between friends, particularly when the covenant is in such dire need of it for other matters. "I propose that before certámen is fought amongst us, the participants discuss with the Certámen Champion whether they will do so with or without raw vís. "Should either choose to participate with vís, they must both discuss with the Certámen Champion and the Keeper of Vís the quantity and type of vís they hold available to use in certámen. To the extent that they are evenly matched, let both parties yield up that much vís to the Keeper for the benefit of the Covenant. "Should one party then hold a sufficiently large advantage in terms of raw vís, the Certámen Champion may then rule that it is impossible for the other party to win. In such a case, the disadvantaged party may yield without dishonor, and the advantaged party's surplus of vís will be given to the Keeper for the use of the Covenant. "Should the disadvantaged party refuse to yield, the Primus may offer to buy the advantaged party's surplus of vís for the Covenant. The advantaged party may refuse this offer without dishonor and insist upon certámen. "Should this be the case, the Keeper of Vís shall have the right to require a trade of vís if the Covenant's supply of one sort of vís appropriate to the certámen for another, equally appropriate. "In all of this, of course, an appropriate replacement must be appointed for anyone who is personally involved in the certámen. "I also propose that certámen matches to determine the Certámen Champion be pure matches of certámen skill, and that we forbid the use of raw vís in such cases. "Finally, I will offer myself up as a contender for the Championship. Should any wish to challenge me for it, I will accept. Should any wish me to challenge them for it, I will be pleased to do so." With a friendly smile for all of us, Tsaran picked up his quill again. [/QUOTE]
