Summary

For a while, everything was going just fine in Marielda. Sure, there was some dissent among the citizens—but what city is free of that? In general, people were coming together, rebuilding, taking care of each other. Canopy Row wasn't thriving, but it was definitely surviving. Knowledge was spreading throughout the city. Even them Cobbins had begun to find their place. And then, sometime in the middle of the year, everything seemed to turn. First, the marble-faced pala-din came marching from the sea, half-alive extensions of Samothes' personal brand of justice. Then... well, as we'd soon learn, the pala-din weren't even the half of it.

0:00.0	Palladine. I heard somewhere that in the old tongue it meant to serve, but those things, those
0:07.9	men of living marble, they didn't serve Mariela. They severed it. Before they'd arrived with the different districts, blended
0:15.6	one to the next. You'd spend a morning under the canopies, slide noontime to a lunch near
0:20.8	Christopher's humble parish, and moving the eve towards a balmy get together
0:24.8	at the black sand beaches of Slow Point. But once the Palladine arrived, those vague borderlines became distinct, drawn in bold by patrol routes, etched in by the hard stone glares of our new voiceless overseers.
0:40.0	Now that didn't stop some folks from moving when they needed to.
0:45.0	But for most of us, we learned our place, kept quiet.
0:50.0	What about our business?
0:52.0	The Paladine didn't need to touch us direct.
0:55.0	They disciplined us by presence alone. the Oh, The Oh, Oh, you know, I'm going to be.

2:10.0	Oh, What do next? next? What's, what's, what do you do, Nick? What else is up with your turn?
2:27.0	Oh boy, well that changes some of my ideas. Yeah. I would like to have a discussion about, all right, I'm going to ask a question. The question is, what do you think we should do about these
2:45.6	stone men, if anything?
