			However, there is a Council of Lords:

			In the sturdy bedrock of the oldest part of the castle lay the chamber where the Council of Lords convened. That respected body of venerated citizens, mostly men, was no mere symbol. While their formal power was limited, the people saw the Council as a leash from which the Viceroy could not, or at least, would not, stray.

			This public perception, while having a flimsy foundation in the law, had altered the course of history several times over the centuries. Viceroys who had pressed on with policies and actions absent the Council's tacit approval had found themselves dealing with popular revolts, or, more embarrassingly, deposed via royal fiat.
