The new zulkir of Transmutation, the enormously fat Samas Kul, wasted no time seeking revenge for the blow taken by his school when its zulkir, Druxus Rhym, was assassinated in the fortress tower of his predecessor on the outskirts of the ‘free’ city of Amruthar.
As his very first act, he introduced a decree to the assembled council of the zulkirs that Amruthar be taken be force, ‘cleansed’, and made a true Thayan city. The debate was fierce and heated with the zulkirs bickering for hours.
Several had called an entourage to attend them. Of those assembled, most belonged to Aznar Thrul and the Priador - Melody Singer as the bard with the golden tongue, Juliet a'Careth for an outsiders perspective, and the legionnaires Duston Conners, Azura, Anastashia Shadoe to show just how ready and bloodthirsty his legion was.
Other than Thrul’s entourage, Nikos Galambos attended his then-tharchion Dimon, the apprentice Shara Bross was conscripted to attend her zulkir Nevron, and Kessa Sepret who managed to survive her Red Wizard trials through the aid of her zulkir Lauzoril who was able to ‘cheat’ her through while the Red Wizards were focused on the council. In exchange, she lied brilliantly on his behalf.
After the zulkirs spoke and their entourages predictably spoke in favor of their zulkir’s view, the vote was finally called. Kul found allies in zulkirs Aznar Thrul, Nevron, and Lauzoril. While Szass Tam, Yaphyll, and Lallara opposed such a heavy-handed and rash decision. With all eyes turning to Mythrell’aa, the zulkir of Illusion, the final vote to decide the fate of Amruthar went:
Mythrell'aa: deciding a decree of such magnitude -6 meals per day for every Thayan- is not a waste of time, *nor* a decision to be taken lightly *shakes her head vehemently*
Aznar Thrul: *shakes his head and looks to the others almost pleadingly, like -can we slay her now and get it over with?-*
Samas Kul: *sputters in rage, his entire body quivering* no you fool! what to do about Amruthar?
Szass Tam: *looks over at Mythrell'aa with a beneficent smile* Zulkir Thrul Awaits your vote on the "esteemed" new Zulkir Kul's proposal to end the "threat of the tiny city state of Amruthar...
Aznar Thrul: Crazy vote, please. This century.
Szass Tam: *sits easily in his throne*
Mythrell'aa: amruthar? oh...that... *looks over to Tam and nods in agreement* well of course i agree with you, as always...
Aznar Thrul: *sighs and rolls his eyes, starting to get up in anger*
Mythrell'aa: we must attack *stands and stretches* and with that, i am truly bored. perhaps next time one of you dies i shall pay more attention at the next council. goodbye...
Mythrell'aa simply disappears from view
Szass Tam: *nods smilingly* Well the council has spoken..
Aznar Thrul: I told you this was a waste of t-
Szass Tam: WHAT?
Aznar Thrul: Hah!
Melody Singer: *blinks*
Azura: *raises eyebrow*
Samas Kul: *smiles fiercely* it is done!
Aznar Thrul: Crazy vote wins. We attack. *smiles menacingly at anyone who dares to look*
Nikos Galambos: *glances to the empty throne, then to Tam, then looks to Tharchion Dimos and nods*
Szass Tam: Obviously Mythrell'aa was joking...she agreed with me.
Duston Conners: *blinks, quite awestruck*
Samas Kul: i shall of course be working with my fellow zulkirs to plan the attack. those who voted correctly, you have done well. know that
Szass Tam: SHe can not have meant to go to war...she supported 6 meals a day at firs..
Aznar Thrul: Her vote was as lucid as she gets.
Juliet a'Careth: *As Mythrell'aa vanishes, she can't help but surpress an amused smile and show of respect for the womans command of illusion; Juliet remains silent, as usual.*
Szass Tam: You cannot intend to go forward with this MADNESS?
Yaphyll: disappointing. Kul, not a good way to start...
Anastashia Shadoe: *looks around her mouth agape at the vote but keeps quiet *
Azura: **frowns slightly but then regains compposure*
Melody Singer: *brown eyes look around the table, then back at Lallara*
Nevron: *sneers at Tam* the council is decided
Nevron: thrul, kul. we shall meet soon to decide the course of action
Lallara Mediocros: *scowling* Insanity has ruled this day, I am certain the people of Thay will not appreciate what you are about to do.
Szass Tam: *His easy smile drops and his face contorts in unnatural ways* You doom thousands to slaughter with this madness....the people will be punished for YOUR arrogance.
Lallara Mediocros: Not all agree with your warmongering Thrul. Your legionnares are loyal only because they fear you, I can see in their eyes they do not agree with this decision.
Lauzoril: Insanity? that is the definition of most of what we do. should something be needed *looks across the table and points to Kessa* she is my proxy in this
Juliet a'Careth: *Despite herself, she flinches from the wizards angry responses.*
Juliet a'Careth: *Particularly Szass Tam's show of anger.*
Szass Tam: *glances at the soldiers behind Thrul* Your loyalty commends you....I hope it serves to drown out the screams of the innocent thayans you slaughter in the name of this folly.

Hezess Nymar: *extends his hand to Kul and shakes it* i have long desired to see Amruthar as a true city of the Lapendrar. as tharchion, i shall do whatever is required *bows and leaves*
Juliet a'Careth: *She forces a stoic expression, apathy clouding her expression.*
Szass Tam: *Sneers at Thrul with undisguised contempt*, You have won the vote...I hope you are satisfied with the results.
Melody Singer: *gulp*
Azura: *looks once more at Lallara then turns her attention to Thrul*
Aznar Thrul: *nodding* The only sensible decision, not the ninny pandering of doddering old politicians.
The Tharchioness: *looks over at thrul and Kul with undisguised loathing and turns to Tam and bows low* at your service, omnipotence. Eltabbar troops shall remain far from this debacle

Kessa Sepret: Actually, you may wish to find another to lead your troops.
Kessa Sepret: I plan to take Nikos as my Knight.
Shara Bross: *small smile*

Duston Conners: *gives a bow* As you wish, Omnipotence.
Dimon: well, as a Thayan Knight i trust you will have him follow your zulkir's wishes and assist in leading the troops in battle, aye?
Kessa Sepret: Of course.
Dimon: just as good then
Dimon: congratulations then, captain
Nikos Galambos: *nods to Kessa, then turns to the Tharchion*Thank you
Aznar Thrul: It seems Tyraturos will be without its leadership, so make due in that case.
Shara Bross: *mouths congratulations to Nikos*
Nikos Galambos: And congratulations to you, Omnipotence Kessa
Nikos Galambos: If this session is over, shall we visit the Knight Commander

------------------------------
As Samas Kul looked over Aznar Thrul and Nevron across the table from him in his tower, he thanked the gods neither of them were Yaphyll or very capable of reading minds. If they knew what was coming as a result of their actions, they would not hesitate to slay him on the spot.
Such as it was, the battle plans for Amruthar were nearly complete. The Lapendrar, Tyraturos, and Priador tharchs were all committing troops to the battle, and Red Wizards with their Thayan Knights of Evocation, Conjuration, Transmutation, and Enchantment would be leading the attack.
If the Heirarch knew what was coming, he gave no indication of it. Regardless of whether or not he did know, thought Samas Kul, was irrelevant. The real purpose of the attack would be revealed only when the battle had begun. Then, he knew, the zulkirs would begin to get what they deserved.
True damnation.
Thanks to everyone who participated in this momentous event. I personally had a great time with the first-ever full council of the zulkirs witnessed by players! And I especially I want to give a very big thanks to Purulent Carcass and Vortar the Mad for their assistance playing several of the zulkirs and tharchions. Without them, this event wouldn’t have been possible.
Thank you everyone for making this council a reality!
