章 73: Discussing War (2)

I requested that the secretary print pamphlets for the illustrious court so that the court would only need to spend its time reiterating what had been said to those individuals who might have trouble hearing or understanding the proceedings.

"Greetings, honorable members of the brilliant court of our powerful pack's mighty council. Today is the day we will talk about the current situation that we are facing. We are aware that there is a possibility that the hill countries of Nevea will bring war to us due to the recent murder of their nationals on our territory. May I please be presented with what are our options?"

That was my modest contribution to opening the court for the proceedings and bids scheduled for the day.

The orator, who was standing at the podium, was supposed to lead the court based on the dictations of the pamphlets, but  it would be better if I did it the usual way and let them say whatever was on their minds.
