Big day in the Dunes, everyone!

• Queen Shay has taken up residence in the Dunes Guild Plot
• The owners of the Guild Plot have been given 5-minute-jail whips to be used at their discretion

Emergency Rules

• Do NOT get in the way of the Lords if they're in the Dunes and busy with stuff.
• Do NOT get in the way of the guild plot builders if they ask you to leave the plot or move out of a specific area of the build!

Dunes Council will be discussing recent happenings and will have more to say soon. Stay safe, dear friends! We as Dunes Council are here to serve our community to the very best of our ability. We love y'all!

Q & A

Q: Will Queen Shay be our lord?

A: We don't know, nothing has been announced. She may just be staying in the Dunes/Barrens for now until she moves on.

Q: What about the Barrens?

A: If Queen Shay does end up representing us sand folk, it will almost certainly be Barrens and Dunes together. Lord Willakers made a mistake in one of his announcements after Queen Shay arrived, saying she was staying in the "Barrens Guild Plot". This isn't just mistaking Dunes for Barrens, it's a misidentification of the Guild Plot, because the Barrens has one that's totally different! However, it does show that many of the Lords still consider us the same district -- which is convenient for our friendship and political alliance!

Q: Will Dunes and Barrens be merged like Cloud Kingdom, Paupers, and Slum Tower?

A: Technically we're already in exactly the same situation... we share Region! The term "subdistrict" is being used in that setting, and has been used by many regarding the Dunes for awhile. This in no way prevents separate governance, though. Cloud, Paupers, and Slum Tower will continue to have their own Councils the way the Dunes and Barrens do, and the nuances of "subdistrict" can be navigated without too much trouble. We will continue to have separate representation at Cross-District Meetings, and Dunes Council will continue to lobby for Dunes inclusion/representation at cross-district events like the upcoming Coe's Birthday Anniversary celebration.
