Big news for the Véinsørmoot and for all of the Maroccidens:
Hireshmont is no longer Senator of Chesney. After getting everything done he needed to get done, he has finally stepped down. And pledged not to interfere in the election for his successor either.
Now time to make a few diplomatic circuits around the continent... and then we'll see if there's anything left in the character to be played with and, if not, I've already set up the backstory for my next Dwilight character.
