Dear zekeVC,
Despite his aversion to fantasy ventures, Rockefeller has sent it up to the animals in the Terminal for further adjudication. Best of luck!

Set in a royal "adjudication chamber" various low echelon locals defend their improper use of magic before some magistrate. Not unlike those matters which local 220 SEIU took to arbitration after the 3 stages of grievance had inevitably failed to resolve back when I chaired for the union at Sunnyside Home. Like sleeping on the job, refusing to wear white shoes, or putting old residents into too-hot baths. Here, in this fantasy yarn, the powers that be like to keep a tight rein on spirit summoning and other unnatural meddling. It's well written, with clean prose and fine description. Some nice medieval world building rife with credible vernacular and occasional ties to the modern world with terms like "birth by knife" for Cesarean. Given my oft confessed aversion to the fantasy genre and borderline YA cap, I'm inclined to porthole it with appreciation. But now, suddenly, I feel a twinge of guilt that my personal biases and dislikes might be standing in the way of work with potential. So, let it ascend that those with keener eyes and opener minds may adjudicate.
Saw the odd quote tag punctuation thing:
“Like every citizen.” Aitan admitted.
