And indeed, the government of Succession has many layers. Most recently, magic has been outlawed without the permission of the crown, and while public displays are difficult to police, Deep [[dwarf]] guards on loan and wearing the livery of the [[Succession Kingdom]] are increasingly seen in the larger towns. Also, nearly all the large temples in the kingdom have been reassigned duties relating to civil life; most of the clergy have moved north or left the realm altogether. So far, no other rules have percolated north from Rael, but the populace as a whole seems wary and resigned that more regulation is coming. | And indeed, the government of Succession has many layers.
