Venerable Spellguard Order,
I have to say, very impressive work with the animatron watchman, my congratulations to Agent Miller and Elapidae for their success, this will certainly do much for the city and the Spellguard's cause! I imagine the Council is going to want a full report on the limitations and functions of this animatron. Hopefully the animatron/s will prove themselves to the city very soon, although I must say, your timing is late.
If these animatrons demonstrate their effectiveness before the opening discussion of the budget, we may be able to see an increase in the funds allocated to the Order, even without a majority. However, if the animatrons are perceived to be costly and a waste of city gold, other Councillors may move for a decrease in Spellguard funding. Councillor Jacelyn Cheval
