Default Re: The Council of Wyrms

No exaggeration at all. While I love the phrase "legislative grace," I was not creative in my use of it. Google the phrase, and you will see that it is a term in American and probably British law (for example, tax deductions are matters of "legislative grace" and can be abolished by the legislature, opposed to the right to free expression which is protected by the 1st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.)

Nonetheless, I can't help but smile whenever I say it... "legislative grace"... I think everyone would start their day a little happier if they said it as a short mantra three times after drinking their first cup of morning coffee.
