The War Council convened in full session for the first time in the kingdom's history.
Previous councils had been partial — the King consulting with selected advisors, the military briefing specific commanders, the intelligence services informing relevant decision-makers. A *full* War Council assembled every institutional voice with authority over the kingdom's wartime posture: the Crown, the Crucible, the Military Command, the Grand Dukes, the Provincial Garrison Commanders, the Naval Command, and the Ministry directors whose departments would sustain the war effort.
