The Concern of the Conclave

@@ Line 37: / Line 37: @@
 A number of magisters in Reikos have examined the effect that has swept across the territory and expressed some guarded concern. They judge that given the nature of the magic used, the widespread effects they are seeing should ''not'' be possible without first passing a [[Declaration#Declaration of Amity|Declaration]] granting [[Amity and enmity|amity]] to Llofir. Which it has clearly not.
 The powers of enmity and amity are a powerful tool in the hands of the Conclave, which grant them additional powers to serve as intermediaries between the Empire and the Eternal realms. If it has been compromised, or someone or something has found a way to work around it, then it is probably Wise and Vigilant for the Conclave to investigate quite how Llofir has managed this.
