The Code of Visare is not to be confused with the Ornsiire Accords, the Accords are a joint project with the Kingdom of Helva to construct a comprehensive list of Workings that should be outlawed to all but those given special permissions. Code of Visare is the more general outline of what is not permitted by the previous and current Visare, an outline of Ornsiire Law at large. The codification of the law by the Ornsiire City-state Pre-imperialism is said to be one of the major contributors to the nations future success.
Common Law
Preface to the first book of the Code of Visare, Common Law
It is believed by those of good temperament and grace that such codes as listed below belong to a philosophical family deemed by the Visare as Common Law. Common Law is that which applies to all Shambaal as they are defined by the Crystal Guard. It aids in the living of a good and just life, protecting the peace of the nation and its sovereignty, and protecting the justice of the Soul bearing.
Addendums
This section has rapidly outgrown the other books within the Code of Visare, full of the whims and wishes of the many Visare that have come and gone during the Time of Rest’s many centuries. It has grown so unchecked that many laws within it contradict previous additions and more than once have large portions been rewritten to the liking of the current Visare. An Addendum when created is labeled as such:
Addendum <current addendum number or subnumber>, Visare <visare writing the addendum>, <addendum purpose>
Addendum content
Addendum 617, Visare Dominika Jonas, To Protect Wellbeing and Sanitation
It is forbidden to excessively rub, lick, swallow, or carry for extended periods metal currencies sold in markets, imported through trade, or otherwise acquired secondhand through any means. Violators are to have the currency in question confiscated with no intention of return in entirety or in partial. If it is deemed necessary by an Attsaga during a hearing the violator’s place of residence, and immediate family’s place of residence if it so differs are to be searched thoroughly for the purpose of complete confiscation.
Upon repeat violations the individual is to be put to work for a number greater than 6 months or exiled if in such extreme circumstances that quantities of metal exceed acceptable and proper amounts.
The above Addendum came about thanks to a remarkable number of individuals suffering from strange long-term illness. After much investigation its timing was traced back to a large surge in merchant’s selling largely useless metal currencies in exchange for Chips as a kind of investment that would pay off as more vendors in the city would begin to accept the small metal discs. Thus Dominika as a kind of emergency countermeasure created Addendum 617 which she by mistake never repealed even after the problem was solved by the Banning of Toxic Metals.
