Footsteps ring out, bouncing off the high arched granite ceiling of the
building housing the seat of government in Avros.  Pages and assistants
queue in front of three windows where assistant clerks receive and stamp
proposed legislation, studies supporting the proposals and public surveys.
The clerk looks over some records as she waits on the person in line.
