Regulation 0-A: The Preservation of the Sovereign Prime The structural integrity of the Sovereign Prime Capacitor and the continuity of the National Resonance Grid are designated as matters of Absolute Precedence. All other regulations, charters, and individual rights are considered subordinate to the preservation of the Prime Anchor. Any action, kinetic or thaumic, deemed necessary to ensure its stability is hereby authorized.
Alistair’s Translation: This is the regulation they wrote to replace God. It means that if the machine is in danger, they can erase a city, burn a book, or delete a person without filling out a form. It’s the final, perfect loophole.
