General Government
Chaucerin has been unanimously appointed cabinet advisor, a testament to his years of service to Equilism. We hope that he will be willing to take on a ministerial position following the next elections. The Equilism Commonwealth of Nations hopes that this display of forgiveness towards one who was once an enemy will contrast with the spite of Imperial Equilism.
This week, Westwind named new No.2 Tse Moana as his successor, prompting some members to speculate about his future in Equilism. His rejection of Chaucerin for simple disagreement is another example of the arbitrary justice of Westwind’s Imperial Equilism.
