Amid the rubble and the heavy guard, Kostan clears his throat.
"In light of the Regent's tendency to vanish above the waves for long periods of time, only to return and bring these troubles with him." Kostan straightens. "In light of his abandonment of his duties to Atlantis, I call for a vote of No Confidence."
