You really should write it up! The PCs could be recruited by the Democracy movement to determine whether the King is telling the truth, maybe?According to the 1E Dungeon Master's Guide (the source I still use to define Alignment) Lawful Good is defined as:"Creatures of lawful good alignment view the cosmos with varying degrees of lawfulness or desire for good. They are convinced that order and law are absolutely necessary to assure good, and that good is best defined as whatever brings the most benefit to the greater number of decent, thinking creatures and the least woe to the rest."So going by that, I suppose any system which attempts to bring the most benefit to the greatest number while also bringing the least harm to the smallest number is Lawful Good.  Therefore, I retract my statement about Lawful Good.  I do, however, still think that most LG would prefer a more structered order to society.</blockquote>
