COMMENTS MADE FREELY BY PARTICIPANTS:

I. "I cannot speak for many of the secretaries' actions during their time in the Regalian government due to my recent arrival in Regalia, but I have seen a little unease in regards to the new treason and finance laws. Whilst I can understand the need for amendments in the face of error, I only hope we will not see an occurrence where the decisions of an individual in power are not fully thought through again. Perhaps a return to traditional values and leadership might be considered in the near future, before we are met with further consequences." - Klaus Typhonus

II. "The Corsair Lord's actions in placing personal racial vendetta over the greater good of the Empire when attempting to strip Altalar of their citizenship rights has been woefully underpunished and underpublicized; many other nobles would fulfill Frisque's function as Secretary of Heritage to the same or even greater levels, without the added controversy of intending to disenfranchise a key ally in this time of war. While I have, in the least, some trust in most government officials, I adhere fully to the opinion that the Corsair Lord has proven himself incapable of maintaining his post in any unbiased fashion that risks no detriment to the Regalian Empire; he is inactive at best, and selfishly harmful to the interests of Regalia at worst." - Aeralaanys Rhylovhas

III. "Our Chancellor has made her priorities painfully clear with her new Treason Laws, and this has had consequences throughout the Empire. Rather than walk them back, she has adjusted their wording in an attempt to avoid further criticism, but maintain the ability to charge any opponent of hers with treason. Let's not fool ourselves; she is holding onto power like a drowning man to a log. I fear many will drown before she has the courage to let go. 

 If I am thrown in prison, again, for merely voicing my disapproval of her actions, she confirms what many already know. Tyranny begins with an obsession for control. Let us hope it does not end as it did with the Usurper Anahera, or the Tyrannical Lo." - Ser Jared Kade
