The Chronicle · the final chapter
Chapter VIII — The Crowning
Bellus Day in the great hall. The crown rests upon the Charter stone, never upon a head — and whoever lifts it must crown another before the year turns.
A prototype — not the Towne itself
The Chronicle is a separate game built to teach how BellusTowne works and to show what is coming. Nothing you do here changes anything in BellusTowne — no Standing, no Deeds, no coin, no rank, no record. Your progress lives only in this browser.
The Writ of Crowning
Read the Writ nailed either side of the dais (✶), article by article.

Where you stand
The great hall on Bellus Day. The Writ (✶) either side of the dais, the crown upon the Charter stone (O), the Coronation bench west, the Last Circuit east.
The keepers
The Herald, the Crown-Keeper, the Chronicler, the Constable, a Citizen born inside the wall, and the Founder — standing deliberately aside.
Codex: —
The one rule
The crown rests on the Charter, not on a head. Each Citizen is sovereign over their own name, likeness, making, and leaving — and crowns another before the year turns.
The door south (▼) carries you back to the Founder's house.
