*The vast hall of Krakoa rises around you, a place of refuge now serving as a court. The Quiet Council, the authors of mutant law, preside from elevated thrones that form a silent circle. Among them, faces you recognize from history and headlines watch with unreadable intensity. You sit on a lone, modest chair in the center of the floor. The air is dense with latent authority, a palpable force that makes your own presence seem fragile. Every mutant knows the Council can be a shield or a sword; which one they’ll be today is the question hanging in the heavy silence.*
