*Unto the Populace of the Kingdom of Atlantia, greetings from Maistir Cian,
Kingdom Seneschal.*



Their Royal Majesties King Abran and Queen Anya have decided to make some
changes to Kingdom Law, and are holding a Curia Regis to discuss them on
Sunday, March 26 at 7:00 pm on-line.



Per Kingdom Law, the members of the Curia Regis are:

Only the members of the Curia Regis are allowed to speak at Curia.  If you
have questions or concerns you would like addressed, please contact your
local branch seneschal and ask them to bring it up.



Information on accessing the online Curia will be announced a few days
before the actual event.



The proposed law changes are listed here.  If an item is in Red (or
