1ST PLENARY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VENNA
06-02-2023(Earth time)

The first council of the city took place in the great hall inside the central palace of the Court.In the presence of the administrator Sir Minus, the Nameless Initiate, HoC Srcribe Sir Argos, HoC Si Edric, Hoc Sir Jakis, HoC of the builders was absent Sir Argos had the delegation, and many representatives of the lower castes and the entire population.

After the welcome presentation by Sir Minus. The nameless Initiate took the floor assuring that from now on the Temple will always be open, at each Hand we will have a public function, with the blessing and the whole population is invited.
 

In order of caste everyone took the floor ensuring the maximum commitment in the city, then when it seemed everything was over the HoC sir Edri of doctors took the floor saying he wanted to appoint as an assistant a woman named Hana, once she was a slave, but now become free and apprentice healer I myself as a Magistrate with Sir Argos we filled out the certificate,  but this aroused the opposition of both Sir Argos and the old doctor born in the north, but worked in many cities as a physician and healer, and after a long discussion, on the advice of the nameless initiate it was decided that the woman should finish the apprenticeship and then take an examination that is not biased,  Although she has shown to have good healing skills by treating a wounded man stabbed in the back.
 

-There has been much discussion about the role of women and their work, but sometimes we lose sight of what are the rules at the foundations of Gor, namely "the woman and free until the man decides that it is" even if in recent years many things have changed but the rules of Venna that provide not to appoint women in key roles as Sir Argos hopes that it is and that also the Initiate to reiterate,  this is confirmed by the fact that if a woman becomes a companion of a scribe she takes his caste, but she will never have an important assignment other than to work as an assistant or in the archive or to have an office in the Kennel palace for the registration of slaves.
 

I have recently seen slaves arrive in the city who after a few days have become free with slaves in tow, protected by warriors, and slaves who do not have adequate preparation and who do not respect the main bases, in the sense that they do not greet the free passing by, some do not kneel and sometimes face discussions as if they were free.
But it is not a problem of Venna, almost everywhere the same happens, in my travels I have seen many impossible situations for the good functioning of the city.
 

Another simple rule is this: if someone sees strange things of stealthy men who wander around or who do outlaw actions, they must report the incident to the guards who in turn warn the commander who will then report  to the Magistrato to issue an arrest warrant or to promote investigations, no one can take initiatives to safeguard their health and safety of the city.
