1st Helena Livery Board (1768)

[sergisala 3451]

First Helena Livery Board, 1768

 

 

Having been elected as Lord Mayor by popular vote of the citizenry of the Imperial City of Helena, Philip Louis Pruvia-Albarosa takes the stand alongside the City Clerk. As the Livery Masters find their seats in Varoche Hall, he begins at once.

 

“Honorable Masters,

 

Today we shall call to order the first sitting of the Helena Livery Board for the mayoral term 1768-1772. I shall now commence with the roll.”

 

An administrative clerk walks with his head lowered towards the Lord Mayor, providing him a scroll with the names of the attendees. He begins to recite them in order of precedence:

 

“The Lord Mayor of Helena @Fnik

The City Clerk of Helena @BobBox

The Master of the Honorable Company of Mercers @DISCOLIQUID

The Master of the Honorable Company of Vintners, Brewers and Innkeepers @Merqurie

The Master of the Honorable Company of Ironmongers, Blacksmiths and Founders @howard

The Master of the Honorable Company of Grocers and Cooks @Ozziemine

The Master of the Honorable Company of Tylers, Bricklayers and Paviors @Wbuus

The Master of the Honorable Company of Barbers and Surgeons @TheGayGuardian2

The Master of the Honorable Company of Drapers and Haberdashers @MentalStatus

The Master of the Honorable Company of Thespians and Revelers @TreeSmoothie

The Master of the Honorable Company of Scriveners @Neon123

The Master of the Honorable Company of Publicans @Anore

 

As is our obligation at the beginning of every livery board, each Livery Master must recite the ancient Nauzican Oath of fealty to the Crown in order to sit.”

 

The Lord Mayor raises his hand as he stands alongside the City Clerk before the lectern, imploring all of his colleagues to follow suit: at once the Livery Masters rise, as individual assistants scramble to provide their superiors with the proper paperwork. Once all were ready, they collectively spoke:

 

”I swear to be true to the Emperor and the realm and not to maintain silence about any evil that I may know which is being contemplated against them. I swear to work tirelessly to the betterment of the Empire and the Orenian people that comprise it. I swear also not to eat or drink with traitors and not to have anything in common with them, and always to defend the honor of the gentlemen I serve. This I swear by the Holy Scrolls.”

 

Once the oath was concluded, all the Livery Masters and the City Clerk returned to their seats - except for the Lord Mayor, who then opened the floor to the business of the Helena Livery Board.

OOC: I genuinely have no idea what's going on. I'm sick OOCLY and thus cannot get on to do anything, and after getting yelled for misunderstanding the post before I decided to just vote Aye because I'm frankly not sure what Sergi wants me to do, lol.
