Treshure 5818 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Salazar makes his way up to a podium in Haelun'ors city square, clearing his throat before speaking out to the assembled crowd. "In recent wartime efforts, it has been realized by the Engineering Corps that more materials must be produced now than ever before. It was a fool's dream to believe that the entire Engineering Corps could provide for Haelun'or. Raw materials are needed, materials we alone do not have the manpower to collect. If this proposition is implemented, the Engineering Corps's labor division will transform into a craftsman division, highlighting alchemy, blacksmithing, tinkering, enchanting, and woodworking. We will act as the medium for refined goods. Our duties as architects (and stonemasons) shall not change. I propose to the Silver Council that the entire population of the blessed cihi of Haelun'or be taken into account for their particular skills in professions. Thus, they would be organized and tasked by quota to fulfill the input of raw material. This act exceeds my power as Evarir'Tuferir, so I plead with the Council to consider this. If implemented correctly, a proper flow will be instituted into our coffers and a potential economic crisis avoided. Us eternal Mali'aheral should not feel the need of mortal materials, but such things are necessary in these rising times. We live for the Maer'sae Hiylun'ehya. That is all." Salazar looks out to the crowd for any feedback on his proposed idea. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandan 1452 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Galan quickly raises his slender finger into the air, pointing upwards in an awkward attempt to grasp the attention of the few gathered mali’aheral. Clearing his throat harshly, he goes to question the request of the odd figure before him. “Quotas? For the entire population? You fail to realise that people are naturally demotivated, never mind the idea of ‘contributing towards the maehr’sae hiylun’ehya’ for on paper it may seem all but appropriate, yet come a time of practical usage it will only prove unsuccessful. People are not naturally motivated, nor does reward hold sufficient enough pulling power with the ambition sealed deep within our minds.. Only punishment, and the consequence of fear may motivate another.. Yet, how do you punish an entire nations workforce?” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Treshure 5818 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 -snip- "Oem must not allow for Mali'aheral to sit festering in the tavern, drinking tea and not contributing to the sanctity of our species. To enforce the means of productivity, to become a citizen of Haelun'or or stay a citizen of Haelun'or oem must partake in an association within the blessed cihi. Be it apart of the library, a potential Mages Guild, a workforce, a politician, or an Evarir'thilln. Otherwise, certain privileges like home ownership and access to the library can be revoked, and in a strong case of lethargy, even citizenship. This idea is based on the principle of the Eternal Library in Lin'everal. You cannot access the knowledge without contributing first. Mali'aheral who do not promote the Maer'sae Hiylun'ehya through productivity are no Mali'aheral to me." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sedentary lifestyle is antithetical to a healthy and robust lifestyle. I advise you move those joints lest they seal shut in aching atrophy.", Duvaindir remarked firmly.

Wendigo 786 Share Posted February 17, 2015 *Riondil chimes in from the back of the crowd "Perhaps instead of forcing citizens, and creating animosity uselessly ask for volunteers. I for instance would be much more willing to help if I volunteered, and would be much more diligent in my assigned task. Another untapped 'labor' force would be the Evariran'thillin. They themselves have vowed to protect our grand cities citizens, by collecting needed materials they are indirectly doing this." Riondil would step back waiting for a reply.

"Thus why I gave a suggestion that in my opinion would be more productive and fitting, instead of blatantly condemning an action that isn't obviously implemented as of yet. This could be a useful source of material income if used correctly." Riondil would say not bothering to turn his head. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
