17th Imperial Decree:
The Festival of Reward
The
Imperial Throne, having heard the words spoken by the Goddess
Seline, decrees that the nearest weekend to the 18th of June shall
be a Festival, when all civilian owners of slaves shall reverse rolls with their slaves from Dawn on the Saturday until
Sunset on the Sunday.
Temple
slaves are to be free of work on this Festival, and are to be
served by other members of their temple throughout the Festival.
Military
owned slaves are to be free of work on this Festival, and
non-commissioned ranks, appointed by their officer owners are to
serve them throughout the Festival.
Corporate
owned slaves are to be free of work during this Festival, and
citizens employed by their company are to serve them throughout
the Festival.
Gladiators
shall not fight during the Festival, and their owners and trainers
are to serve them throughout the Festival.
After
the conclusion of the Festival, no slave or Gladiator may be
punished or in any way penalised for any actions or activities
which take place during the Festival. This Festival is their
Reward, and their justice, for their lot in society.
