BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

Another day, another drama, here at the Chamber of the Great Council. You might think that these great men with their great responsibilities would have great concerns, but you would of course be wrong, for who but the obscenely powerful can afford to be petty? They do their deeds without scrutiny and so, behind the gilt doors of the palace, the darkest vices of their human emotion can have free reign.

Take this example that has chanced upon your correspondent’s ears: one of the attendees is rumoured to be furious at themselves, for the grevious crime of spending their time in idle wastefulness rather than in scheming and politicing, and is blackening their own name to all within earshot. Can you imagine!

If the lives of the wealthy and powerful seem remote and absurd to you then at least you should be pleased that I, your guide, will continue to faithfully serve you with the latest gossip from the Great Hall. But who am I? That’s one secret I’ll never tell.
