Synthia:

--- Quote from: Lord Chief Justice of the Kaztropolis Civil Court ---Majesty, your judgement is required to solve a dispute in the courts.

"This Letter is Unexpected. The Details of the case are Confusing."
"Of course, Majesty"
"I shall obtain Advice, before making a Judgement"

[spoiler]
--- Quote ---Synthetic Cultist > Politics is Convoluted. There is a complex Political situation in Kaztropolis. I am Perplexed.
 Tiberious Thessalonia > Oh? Perhaps I can be of some aid.
 orion scimatarii > "May I be of assistance Synthia?"
 Synthetic Cultist > Yes. It is Confusing, Tiberious.
 Synthetic Cultist > Tiberious, Orion, the Situation that is Perplexing me relates to an Issue in the Kaztropol Civil Court.
 Tiberious Thessalonia > Go on.
 orion scimatarii > "Please, carry on."
 Synthetic Cultist > A Mancubine, belonging to Lady A, a Holder, escaped through a Poorly Maintained Fence, and seduced and impregnated Miss B, a wealthy Commoner, whose Holder is Lord C. I have Obscured the Names for Legal Reasons.
 Tiberious Thessalonia > Of course.
 orion scimatarii > "Of course, it is only fair."
 Synthetic Cultist > Lady A, claims that the Child should be Her property, because the father is her mancubine. Miss B claims the Child as her own, because she is the child's Mother. Lord C states that as Miss B is not a Holder, she may not own slaves. Lord C also states that the Fence is clearly Lady A's responsibility, which Lady A denies Most Strongly.
 Innocent Mind > Cut Lady A and Lord C in half. Its the only fair thing.
 Synthetic Cultist > Miss B also states Lady A owes her Compensation as the mancubine clearly seduced Miss B under False Pretences.
 Tiberious Thessalonia > I am not well versed in Kastropolan court protocol.
 Synthetic Cultist > I am Perplexed by This.
 Tiberious Thessalonia > First:  Is there property law, and if so is the fence legally Lady A's property?
 orion scimatarii > "The child, belongs to the mother as mother and offspring. the Mancubine must of course, pay off his debt as Miss B declares. It is his debt he has wrought himself, he must work it off."
 Tiberious Thessalonia > If so, it is her responsibility to maintain the fence.
 Urisuma Insaiji > Clean hands surely comes into action against Lady A, her property committed an offence which she should not have allowed therefore she is not legally able to demand the child, which really should be given to the mother as compensation for the offence.
 Tiberious Thessalonia > The Mancubine is a slave and hence is likely not allowed to own property, and has no social standing, so the child is Miss B's as the Mancubine is a non-person (This may not be the case) The fate of the child then rests on the idea of whether a wealthy commoner is considered property of their holder.
 Vincent Pryce > Execute the mancubine, abort the child and have Lady A fix her fence.
 Urisuma Insaiji > A commoner is a tennant not property. And the child legally does not have to be property due to it's mother.
 Tiberious Thessalonia > Urisuma, that depends on the specific laws of Kaztropol.
 Urisuma Insaiji > True, I was assuming they would be similar to Amarr standard law
 orion scimatarii > "No, the child stays with Miss B as compensation for the fence of ill repair, which is Lady A's duty to maintain her own land and property."
 Tiberious Thessalonia > Thats not much compensation "Here, you get to take care of this person for the next 20 years.  Good luck!"
 Urisuma Insaiji > She wants the child, so I do not think it unreasonable to let her keep it as at least part of compensation.
 Synthetic Cultist > The Law of Kaztropol is Complex.
 Tiberious Thessalonia > I think most of us are in agreement that the child is Ms. B's, and the question comes down to whether she is property or simply owes fealty to Lord C. And assuming that the poorly maintained fence is Lady A's property, it then comes down to the previous as to whom she owes financial consideration to.
 Synthetic Cultist > I See.
 orion scimatarii > "Hmmm, alright then, how about this; Miss B keeps child and receives money enough to pay for the childs upbringing from Lady A, Miss B is not a Holder, true, she may hire the Mancubine for the duration of the childs life as a servant. Again Lady A pays.
 Tiberious Thessalonia > So get out the property lawyers and start determining ownership. That may be fair but it may not be just, Orion. It depends on the laws.  Get out the lawyers, Synthia.
 orion scimatarii > "I try to be fair in all ways. Please do tell me where I am going wrong so we can ammend this."
 Tiberious Thessalonia > Lady A may not owe Miss B. any money. She may owe the money to her holder. At that point it is up to Lord C as to whether he will follow through with the noble obligation.
 orion scimatarii > "I see your wisdom in these matters."
 Tiberious Thessalonia > What is Just and what is Fair are not always the same. But "fairness" is a very poor operating policy for a society. Justice, on the other hand, can be a very good one.
 orion scimatarii > "I try and align toward more fairness. I'm a bit too soft for the courts it seems."
 Tiberious Thessalonia > The other option is to go the tyranny route
 Synthetic Cultist > The Tyranny Route ?
 Tiberious Thessalonia > And punish all four people involved, and take the baby to be trained as some sort of elite super bodyguard.
 orion scimatarii > "Or just, y'know, put all four into an arena, with weapons and have them all go gladiator on each other. Atleast have some amusement with the Tyrany route Tibs."
 Tiberious Thessalonia > Oh no,; amusement is not the point of the tyranny route
 orion scimatarii > "Fair point. But there have been many Tyrants to be amused at the suffering of others in such a public display."
 Tiberious Thessalonia > Oh sure, but the point is fear.  I think if I were to head that route the #1 thing I would want to portray myself as feeling annoyance.

"I have received Advice. Inform the Lord Chief Justice, that he shall receive my Judgement momentarily."
"At once, your Majesty".


--- Quote from: The Judgement of Queen Synthia ---The Mancubine is to Repair the Fence.
Lord C is to construct a Fence or other Barrier running Parallel to the existing Fence, and maintain it, at his Expense.
Lady A and Lord C are to make a New Agreement regarding the Definition of the Boundary.
Miss B's Child is to be a Free Commoner, and shall receive an Education of their Choice. Lady A is to pay the Expense.
This is Because the Unexpected nature of the Child may be a Sign. Signs should Not be Ignored. It is Written.

"I am sure the citizens of Kaztropolis will be pleased at your judgement, Majesty"
"Yes."

Synthia:
"Majesty, the Archbishop of Kaztropolis is here."
"Then, Show him In."

"Your Majesty, yesterday, as I was walking through the streets, I observed a lady purposefully drop an item on the ground, for her slave to pick up."
"I See."
"It was positively scandalous. The slave man was one of those muscly types, and did not even have a shirt on, and when he bent down, the lady was practically leering at him in a most suggestive manner!"
"!"
"I beseech you, as Empress, to take action against this unrighteous behaviour!"

To Whom it may Concern:
By Order of Queen Synthia 1, All personal assistance Slaves are to be issued Grabby Sticks in order to retrieve dropped Items from the Ground. Slaves are Prohibited from Bending Over.

Synthia:
"KCFP! Nobody move, this is a raid!"
"All right, everyone, over here, hands on the wall"
"Oh-hoh, what's this then? Sergeant, take her away and book her. One count of wearing an Unrighteous dress."


"Majesty, the Fashion Police report that several Unrighteous dresses were recovered during raids on a number of dance halls. The suspects are in custody as we speak."
"Excellent, I shall address these Suspect Women, and Explain about the Importance of Dressing Appropriately."
"As you wish, Majesty"

Katrina Oniseki:


synthia face.

Synthia:
The Ant War

"You rang the alarm bell, your Majesty ?"
"Yes. There is an Intruder. Observe."
"Ah, it is an ant, Majesty, they get into the Palace from time to time. They come from the gardens usually."
"These Incursions are Unacceptable. Summon the Chiefs of Staff."
"The Chiefs of Staff, Majesty?"
"Yes."

"These Ant Intrusions into the Palace are Unacceptable. I request Solutions. Grand Admiral, what is your Opinion?"
"I'm, err, not entirely sure anything in the Navy inventory would be of use here, your Majesty"
"I See. Field Marshal, what is your Analysis?"
"Well, I think the Admiral has forgotten the Navy has some rubber boats, I think he could set one up on the duck pond, for naval fire support."
"An Excellent Suggestion. Grand Admiral, you will command this Inflatable Boat."
"As you wish, your Majesty, however, may I point out that the Army has a fine Engineer Corps, who I am quite certain would be useful to contain the ant menace."
"Yes. Field Marshal, you will take Personal Command of the Engineers, and construct a Defensive Perimeter."
"I, err. Yes, your Majesty"

"The Grand Admiral looks quite solemn in his rubber boat on the duck pond, your Majesty."
"Yes, I believe it is because he Realises the Importance of his Duty."
"And the Field Marshal seems to be enjoying digging a trench around the palace."
"Yes. Exercise promotes Well Being. Healthy Body, Healthy Mind, Healthy Soul. It is Written."
"Indeed, your Majesty."

"There is a message from the Natural History Institute, your Majesty."
"What does it Say ?"
"It says that ants communicate with pheromones, and that they might be persuaded to move away from the Palace by careful placement of artificial ant pheromones."
"That is an Interesting Suggestion"

To Whom it May Concern:
By Order of Queen Synthia, the Armed Forces of Kaztropol will be holding a Parade, to commemorate the Victory in the Ant War.
