A story of a fabled land (in many parts) part II


Here is the fabled town hall of Avalon. This is the ancient, yet rotten borough presided over by those forces we refered to yesterday.
We told you of how the people of the borough, fed up with not being able to park their horse and carts anywhere in Avalon rose up in revolt and overturned Steven the large and replaced him with Prince James.
We also spoke of the famous battle of St Peter's. This was where Gary Mandrake took on Steve the large in open combat, sword in hand, and defeated Steve the large.
The workers and peasants of Avalon were deeply thrilled.
They united as never before, but as was later discovered, although there had been an internal palace coup, still the advisors to the Great Counsel stayed the same.
When there was a meeting of the full counsel, despite a reduced number of noblepersons, Prince James had the same advisors.
The Oblong Table, around which sat seven knights :
Counsellor Terry of the East
Counsellor Lucy of the Cannons
Counsellor George of Clerkenwell
Counsellor Andrew, he of St George's
Counsellor John--also of the east
Counsellor Marisha--also of Clerkenwell
Counsellor Ursula from the Junction
These prepared to do battle with the barons of the opposition.
More later
