A CHALLENGER APPEARS!

TRAINER VONGENF want's to fight!

VONGENF CHOOSES PIERRE!

JEVONDAIR CHOOSES RYNN!

PIERRE uses DIPLOMATIC TIES...CRITICAL HIT!

RYNN prepares LOCAL POPULARITY. The attack will hit in 2 TURNS. RYNN'S DEFENSE INCREASES SUBSTANTIALLY!

PIERRE uses BLOODSTARS...but the hit is unable to disrupt RYNN'S concentration.

RYNN is GLOWING!

PIERRE uses RALLY THE LORDS. PIERRE'S OFFENSE INCREASES SUBSTANTIALLY!

RYNN casts LOCAL POPULARITY. It is SUPER EFFECTIVE!

PIERRE FAINTS!

JEVONDAIR has WON the match!

JEVONDAIR WINS the PRIME MINISTER BADGE!

Wow. I just about died.

What was the final vote count, by the way?

Unfortunately, that amount of abstentions is rather the norm for politics in D'Hara. So of you ever get tired of Terran, you are welcome to come and liven things up.

I think it counts as an abstention if you don't cast a second and third vote. Considering the situations where one would want to do that are very rare, there are always loads of abstentions.

It's the "did not votes" that are the issue.

On that topic, Aurvandil had a surprisingly riveting electoral month, no one said anything, but a lot of people ran in the elections.

Just one more item in the "what's wrong with Aurvandil" list...

One person not voting generates , I think, 7 "did not votes".

Maybe when Aurvandil defeats us and Hireshmont is disgraced he will come partay in DHara for a while.

What is the electoral scene like in Aurvandil? I was under the impression a couple of positions were up for grabs. Are names just dropped in a hat or do people actually campaign to win like they do in D'Hara? Honsetly, that's been one of my favorite parts about D'Hara so far!

That was a fun election, very close. The cascade of endorsements for Pierre made Ismail come out swinging for Rynn.

And yes, there is a bit of voter apathy in D'Hara... a lot of the Knights are pretty much AFK. But I hope things get more interesting with talks of a new Dragon King popping up again.

Knights don't get to vote, though, do they?
