We don't need one all-powerful leader. We need a collaborative group in which everyone has a voice. We need rules that people can agree on and a way to enforce them.
What we have to work with is a group of randomly assembled individuals, a portion of whom get insulted if you look at them funny and who come from places where decapitation is an acceptable response to an insult. That won't change if someone tries to take charge.
Perhaps this is the place I ought to mention that I am a subject of His Royal Highness King Edward's realm. One may have a monarch and a parliament together. The monarch is needed to establish the parliament in the first place, though.
Politics are to one side, though. I'll take care of Renart in what ways I can, detective, I would beg your creativity to imagine life as an officer with Mr. Merlyn.
[Else he really will have to try throwing himself at the other man's feet again. Or devising some method to murder him. Permanently.]
