Official apology
In private I have already apologized to the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang for going too far with my suspicions about her maybe selfish status-oriented intentions; and now I want to offer my apologies in public as well.
Since the day the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang told me that she disapproved of my status as Honorary Initiate and wanted to appeal against it, to take away my rights to vote at national Assemblies and to act as an official representative of the Theocracy, I felt quite bitter. I feared - or rather expected - that the Awakened would succeed in pushing me back to regional politics only, and such would exclude the voices and suggestions of Hoi-Cho from national politics completely, as the Awakened Sartyrica unfortunately often lacks the time to attend national Assemblies in person.
Fortunately and to my utmost relief the Grand Sage Mabreka Cho was so magnanimous to approve of my status loud and clearly during the last national Assembly of the Circles in Zora; so the danger of being driven out of national politics has been averted. As for the new organization of the procedure for national Assemblies a compromise was decided by the Sages, for this some parts of Awakened Fey-Lin Liangs suggestions have been granted, and some of my contradictions have been considered too.
Still with these decisions coming into effect no national Assembly on Atys now grants free speech any longer, at each and every Assembly handsigns are now obligate - such the biggest difference between the Nations has been eliminated. As a novelty the seating-order is a little bit different now and each city can have 3 self-chosen votes at national Assemblies, Awakened and (honorary) Initiates for a new balance and fairness.
