Lex Magica of the Martyr's Tree Consilium

Gold Law

1. Recognized by Supremacy: Their ubiquity in ancient law speaks their truth.
   1. Right of Crossing: Let no borders stop an Awakened with a clear heart.
      1. SLC: (Gaviston, NYC) Each cadre, order, path, consilium, or other assembly of the Awakened Recognized before the Lex Magica or comprised of individuals Recognized before the Lex Magica shall make public notice of the safe and permissible path through their territory in whatever realm of being such claims are Recognized before the Lex Magica.
      2. SLD: (Maxim, NYC) In some consillii, Recognition is on occasion granted to beings of the Fallen World who have proven their merit. Does the convocation suggest their territorial claims respected? The will of the lawyer is not the soul of the law. We answer no.
      3. SLD: (Pontiff, PHL) Any limitation of the Precept of Recognition is not codified in Silver Law concordance, neither by Harmony, nor Supremacy. If you wish to limit who is Recognized by your councilors because you fear the wisdom of their Recognition, raise up wiser councilors. We have the leaders we deserve. We say yes.
   2. Right of Emeritus: Those who have earned respect must be treated with respect.
      1. SLC: (Gaviston, NYC) Those Recognized by the consilium as members thereof shall afford respect and deference to officers of the consilium according to their status therein; they shall not impede their just and sanctioned activities, nor hinder their travel or liberty, nor tamper with their minds, patterns, or souls save they violate the Right of Sanctuary. In all other matters, the unwise owe respect to the wise; the initiate to the apprentice, the apprentice to the disciple, the disciple to the adept, the adept to the master, the master to the master of the second degree, etc. Each order may create what hierarchies seem sensible to them, or enforce none if it please them to do so.
      2. SLC: (Djinn, BST) Respect and deference is not fealty. Gaviston was writing during a time of nascent colonialism and unbridled white supremacist western expansion. Give me no reason to do otherwise, and yes. I will respect my wise betters. Come in the name of the consilium, and enjoy my cooperation. Demand submission for unwise ends and I am obliged to resist.
      3. SLC: (Kairos, PTD) You will be well regarded if you treat others well regardless of your power. How much wiser are those wise who treat others as they would wish to be treated?
   3. Right of Hospitality: Those who request hospitality must be granted it.
   4. Right of Nemesis: When vengeance is declared, let none stand in its way.
   5. Right of Sanctuary: Protect your home, and let no action cause it harm.
2. Recognized by Artifact: The artifacts of the ancients are the keys to understanding.
   1. Right of Execution: An awakened life is sacred but not inviolate. The mask of the Interfector, passed down to us from the time before, is a sacred tool of anonymity for the executioner. Its existence makes this truth manifest. The right and responsibility for execution belongs to the Guardians of the Veil and their chosen Interfector, the authority to issue such a sentence belongs to the council alone.
