Fod awarded the Silver Quill to Jar Eel - not that it did him any good[1] (I think I managed ohh - about 10 seconds of conversation with her when there weren't at least two other people also talking to her, which did make it a bit tricky). Mind you, I think it took me until the post game briefing to award the prize anyway - most of the capitol seemed more concerned about the two diametrically opposed emperors that were competing to be recognised as Moonson....
While I would be happy to lend copies of any texts to serious students, the Cenobites of Danfive Xaron seem, for some reason, to take a dim view of certain texts being made available.... (though I did manage to avoid making any of them a judge for the Silver Quill)

I enjoyed playing that particular card, although maybe flaming a tax
inspector in front of the entire senate may not have been the wisest
move
[1] I did have more luck(?) with the Countess of Spol, in her disguise -
possibly being one of her first "conquests". She was played by Suzanne
Corteau, with great gusto and enthusiasm. The encounter took place in
the Corridor upstairs next to the panels, and cause one attendee to
stick his head out to see what was going on (and whether he could join
in....)
