Conseil du Royaume

[ULC]

Gaetan's eye's narrow at Thierry's words.

"Only fools do not watch their tongues, de Rochefort"

[Andres]

Thierry stares back at Gaethan.

You should watch yours closely Gaethan, if you don't want to find it on your plate for diner.

Thierry looks at the King and then stares back at Gaethan.

But maybe we should continue our discussion about extravagant gastronomy another time.

[Ramses II CP]

Prince Louis bows his head before the King's advice and issues his amendment so changed:

Amendment 1.2 The nation of France does not acknowledge the authority or existence of heathen nations. As such no diplomatic agreements of any kind are permitted with Muslim factions, and nobles shall have the right to petition the King for a declaration of war at any provocation from the heathens, most especially including the tresspass of agents or armies onto French soil.

I also second edict 1.11 (As altered).

I see that the matter of de Neufville's nonsesnse has been resolved to the King's evident satisfaction, and so I withdraw my complaint. Be warned though (The Prince pauses to glare at Gaspard and Beretin as his voices hardens) that further abridgements of propriety will not be met so lightly for my part. We are not a sty full of squabbling pigs but a noble body, and it is our obligation to observe the natural chain of authority. History is littered with states which failed due to rebelliousness and a lack of respect for authority. The Frankish people do not deserve to be allowed to fall into such vile ignominy.

I will not allow it! No matter the cost.

As soon as he returns to his seat the Prince's face clears of anger, however, and on seeing Duke de Rohan's thwacking of the page's bottom he gives the man an appreciative nod.

[TinCow]

I second Amendment 1.2

[AussieGiant]

Smiling cheekily at the Dauphin, Alain mouths the words:

"All my page boy's are actually wenches."

Quickly straightening his face and standing.

"I second Amendment 1.2!!"

Sitting back down he slaps Medoc on the nose for no apparent reason, the great hound simply ignores his master and stares at the rump of the departing pageboy, his tongue hanging a little further out of his mouth than normal.

[Rowan]

A man stands up from the benches at the sides

I second Amendment 1.2, he shouts and then promptly sits down again.

[_Tristan_]

Though it is not neccessary, I will also second Amendment 1.2

Philippe gives a brief nod to his son, full of respect.
