A Meeting of Clan Mekhet. The meeting was held on 05 October 2012[1]

  • Herald Martha Villiers is the one who organized things at the conference chamber this night, citrus lemonade, notebooks, her famous Flip-Chart, all is ready. Soon the Shadows start to arrive, one by one. For Aileen McFarlane and Teodor Raluca this is their first meeting in Sacramento.
  • PriscusConner Greyson does all the introductions this time.[2] With their numbers still growing, and more matters to discuss, no one minds the Shadow Priscus to speed things up. After the usual welcoming words of every meeting, Regent Brady tells the two new arrivals that they are privileged to feed in Citrus Heights for as long as she is Regent there.[3]
  • Then the big announcement comes, Conner Greyson steps down as Priscus. It has been long enough, he believes someone else should take on the role. He suggests that the new Priscus should be nominated by the Clan.
""Today is my six hundredth and first day* as Mekhet Priscus. And it is my last. I have decided that it is time to step aside, and for another member of the family to step into this role. It has been my honor to serve the family as Clan Priscus. I hope that I have represented this family with honor and respect. And I hope that the next Priscus will do the same."' - Conner Greyson[4]
  • Before anything else, Catherine Keyes questions Conner Greyson's decision to step down, but the former Priscus replies with extensive arguments and good reasoning.
"Many of our clan have important roles in the domain, as you do, Priscus. Would it be right to heap another set of duties on those who work so diligently for the domain at large?" - Catherine Keyes[5]
"Before I say anything else, I must thank you for every single day you served as my Priscus, Reeve Greyson. I agree with you. Trust, I think like all other things, must be earned. I don't think any doubt exists that we will continue to listen to your respected voice, no matter what positions you have. Therefore, also, the more appropriate it is for you to nominate a Priscus, as we are all capable of doing."[6] - Chris Wooding
  • While congratulations for Neil Kingsley are already being made, Chris Wooding is not done speaking, for he nominates Grand WyrmMax Heinz. However, the Dragon turns down the nomination, believing two nominees are enough to choose between.[7] While Neil Kingsley is ready to convince the Clan he'll be a capable Priscus, Teodor Raluca needs to be convinced of his own nomination first, by Martha Villiers.
"Deeper purpose? Other than to see you advance? Not really, Brother! I might as easily offered a nomination to Dr Kingsley, but I wished to speak with him about another possible role in the Domain...it seemed to me that the Priscus was attentive to having those in a senior role too overburdened with activity. To offer a nomination to Mr Wooding, as he is also the Heirophant, seemed to be likewise silly. I see no reason why you should be excluded. Besides, what I said about your qualifications were my true thoughts. Nevertheless, if you wish to reject the nomination, so be it! Just make certain that in doing so you don't make me seem a total dunce for offering you the opportunity." - Martha Villiers[8]
  • All of the sudden, Regent Erika Brady also nominates Chris Wooding, she is not convinced that the two nominees will be an asset to the Clan, as leaders. [9].
  • Then the real voting begins, and Neil Kingsley seems to be on the winning hand. Were it not that he suddenly decided to leave the room, and then the Domain.[10]
  • Eventually, Chris Wooding becomes Priscus of Clan Mekhet. He tries to discuss several matters, but it's been a long meeting already. [11] So teaching Auspex outside the Clan is still forbidden, and the Clan remains without Whip. Then it is time for goodbyes.
