Whisper vote: Exile of Mercanus and Mirabilis Dargent

Political event

Takesday, Beggarmoon, 1289

A whisper vote on Takesday, Beggarmoon arranged for Mercanus and Mirabilis Dargent to be exiled from the Noble Court.
Vote called by Richard Dargent.


Believing his parents did not have enough vision, Richard Dargent arranged a Whisper Vote to excile his parents, Mercanus and Mirabilis, from the Noble Court. The vote, which was officially called by Richard, reached an almost unanimous verdit of exile (including from the Lord Captain Emissary), although the Ratrider and Jackalslicer families did vote to forgive. The Underhand, Bakerstreet and Shajara families abstained (one of the few times the Shajara's have voted differently from Richard). Although they were clearly ambitious (and, as far as the world is concerned, human), the difference in how far they were willing to go in their attaining of human power led to some kind of family split.
