The floor session is finally finished, so Fernando is rushing off to a late lunch.  It looks like Magic committee is canceled, he needs to find out about his other committees.

…and he needs to rethink his entire approach to the convention if it isn’t (primarily) a loyalty test and the Queen is actually going to implement all of its recommendations.  He can’t be obviously Evil and there is still the Judge to consider for the (hopefully distant if he buys a reincarnation) future, but he should look out for himself more if there isn’t an explicit reward for loyalty.

He gets food at a nearby cafe.  He should be revising his constitution (now that he knows there is a risk it could become actual law).  But instead he is staring kind of blankly.  There is an open seat at the small table he’s sitting at.
