"Thank you, Select."

"You're welcome."

Off Jaume goes, looking for someone he knows to be on Rights.

Not the paladin. He doesn't really want the conversation to be about how he's Evil. Probably paladins who have been doing assizes in Cheliax for a year and a half don't make every conversation about how everyone is Evil - it'd become wearisome even for paladins - and he probably doesn't even detect, but - at any rate, not the paladin. He'd probably feel differently if they were Abadaran paladins, but Abadar is not so given to paladins as is Iomedae.

"Sower."

"...I don't recall if you fellows have your own word for yourselves besides Chosen."

"It's Fiducia."

"Well, what's on your mind, Fiducia?"

"I hope to see introduced to the convention a bill to grant an exception on the grounds of conscience from military conscription. They do the same in Lastwall, for anyone who has been chosen for or elected to join a noncombatant order, or who have other moral objections to participating in the army."

"What's this got to do with me?"

"I think the members of the Rights committee may find it an interesting proposition, though I've also reached out to members of Virtuous Churches and the Army committee. The Army committee may be the most natural place to incubate the bill itself but its success will depend on it being well-crafted and not meeting fatal objections on the floor. Would you be willing to bring it up in your committee meeting, and direct any replies to the idea to me?"

"I dunno when we'll get a moment, there's some talkative ladies in the committee, but if I can, all right."

"Thank you, Sower."
