✦ The Five-Year Conclave ✦
Once every five years, all thirteen meet in Frae City — Cronus's city, on his ground. The choice is not incidental: Frae City was founded during the Week of Crimson Rain as the seat of mortal resistance, the place where the Gods' Law was forged. The tradition of meeting there has held ever since. What is decided is rarely announced. Kingdoms send observers. Scholars study the outcomes for years after. The gods arrive without ceremony and leave the same way. Cronus is always already there when they arrive.
