In the Esfodi city of ogn* there is one officer they call the prototalemelier, whose job it is to keep count of how many times the mayor will shake hands. When that count reaches a thousand the mayor is replaced.
In merichochylium when the prototalemelier has counted to five hundred and one, they cut off the mayor’s hand with a sword. After that the mayor can resign or get a second term. In gambacivit, they elect a new mayor once every nine years. On the ninth day of the victorious candidate’s term they cut off one of his feet: the left one, if the new mayor has indicated a preference for a conservative type of leadership; the right one, if he promised a lot of changes (people take bets.)
In patich only a mute can become their mayor.
