Games Night With Alexander (Part-7)

With Gelene and Cambyses finally piping down, Alexander finally had the opportunity to declare his verdict on the issue of the application of the former's special power, something the two girls seemed to have completely forgotten. 

So bringing their attention back to the game at hand, Alexander decreed, 

"While it is true Gelene's circumstances are special, her piece is also a noble. And in real life, any judgment on a noble can only be meted out by the king. And offering to sell a property to repay a tax would be more than acceptable to a reasonable king. So I think Gelene can indeed use her powers."

"Master is the best." Gelene immediately flashed a virtuous grin at this verdict, nodding her head and cheering.

And then turned to Cambyses to smugly comment, "Heh.. hear that… and besides who is to say this rule was not just a special rule for tax evasion? One that I can break!"

It seemed she was still hung up on that argument.
