The Triad
Tharkad System
Lyran Commonwealth
January, 3098
[Estates General floor...]
On a normal day's session, maybe 20% of the legislature of the Lyran Commonwealth even bothered to show up.

Andrew mounted the Dais, and looked at the seats.
"Mister Speaker?  I see we may have to wait until tomorrow." he said.  Just a count of delegates present was under sixty percent of the whole body.
"Your Highness?"
"I asked for a full session. There are more than one hundred and..." he waved a finger in a counting motion.  "Forty seats empty. This is not a full session.  It can wait until tomorrow."  He stepped down, and walked out of the chamber.
