Congress of Chryse/1728 Session

The Seventh Session of the Congress of Chryse was scheduled to commence from the Festival of the Undaunted Atos (12.II.1728 AN) and conclude by High Roqpin (24.IX.1728 AN). The stated objective of the session was to appoint the High Presidium of the Benacian Union for the next four years and to determine that strategic agenda that the High Presidium would be obliged to follow and implement, particularly with regards to the balance of power on Benacia and the future of relations with Shireroth were it to exit the Raspur Pact.

Background

In keeping with established custom and precedent, the Imperial and Emirati Bank of the Sathrati Islands and the Imperial & Emirati Bank of Alalehzamin and Constancia were nominated as guarantors of the peace that would prevail in Chryse during the Congress.

Participants at the congress were obliged to surrender hostages and pay the fees required for blood indemnity bonds into escrow accounts, refundable only on condition that no murder or mayhem transpire during the congress. Zollinger Kirchner was hired to act as go-between and intermediary, negotiating fees and collecting nominated hostages for delivery to Tirlar where they would be placed under the protective custody of the guarantor banks for the duration of the congress.
