Lady Floros invites the rest of the parties she has privately corresponded with to sign a contract to formalize their association.

Quote from: Charter of the Torchwood Adventuring Concern
We, the undersigned Companies and their Leaders (henceforth known as the Interested Parties) do hereby agree to form the Torchlight Adventuring Concern (henceforth known as the Group) to Manage and Invest in Resources on this Island collectively.

By Signing this Contract, each Interested Party agrees to be bound by these terms. If one of the Interested Parties breaks these terms, a variety of Punitive Measures (such as ejection from the Group, confiscation of their Assets held Collectively, and legal arbitration) may result.

SECTION 1 - DEFINITIONS:

Clause A: All Interested Parties, upon the Signing of this Contract, agree to invest a sum not exceeding Three Florins (3₣). In exchange, they receive Twenty (20) Shares, of which there are One Hundred (100) in existence during the immediate aftermath of the Signing of this Contract. Holding of Shares allows Interested Parties and Others with an Interest in the Group to exert Control on the Group and its Functions. A Company or Individual holding at least One (1) share is henceforth called a Shareholder.

Clause B: All Shareholders who Hold at least Ten (10) Shares are henceforth known as a Member.

Clause C: Some Sections of this Contract make reference to a Vote: In such a case, this is Collected by multiplying each Shareholder's stated Opinion by the Number of Shares they Hold. The only exception is Votes pertaining to the Sale of Shares (2.A) which is a simple majority (51%) of all Members with no Weighting.

SECTION 2 - RIGHTS OF MEMBERS AND SHAREHOLDERS:

Clause A: A Shareholder may agree to Sell their Shares for any Price they care to Name, either back to the Group or to a Private Individual; this Absolves them of any Rights and Responsibilities granted by the Holding of at least One (1) Share. Such a sale requires a simple majority (51%) Vote of all Members in the Group with no Preference for those Holding more Shares - this measure is intended to prevent hostile takeovers.

Clause B: A Shareholder, by their Status of Holding no less than One (1) Share, is entitled to a Proportion of all Profit produced by Adventurers whose Bondage is held Collectively by the Group relative to the Proportion of Shares they Hold.

Clause C: A Shareholder may call a Vote to Reinvest. In such an Event, provided the Vote succeeds, all Shareholders may contribute as many Florins as they Wish to the Collective Trust (3.A). After this, new Shares are Created and Distributed to Shareholders proportional to the Amount they Reinvested. In such a way, the Number of Total Shares may exceed the One Hundred (100) that were Distributed at the Signing of this Contract.

SECTION 3 - RIGHTS OF THE GROUP:

Clause A: The Group reserves the Right to Hold Funds and Adventurers in Trust for its Members and Shareholders. In such an Event, the use of these Assets in this Collective Trust is subject to a Vote.

SECTION 4 - CHANGES TO THIS CONTRACT:

Clause A: Any Section or Clause of this Contract may be Changed by a Vote.

I still want the D. The D is love, the D is life. The D is bully.
Rewind, can't keep going
My mind keeps replaying

But now I'm sinking

In any case it would be a battle of critical thinking and I refuse to fight an unarmed individual.

Lady Floros also presents the first modification to the Charter, as the TAC's first Vote:

Quote
Clause 3.B: The Group, in those Instances where it would be Unwieldy to call a Vote on a Matter of the Group's Interest, may use a Vote to Elect a Shareholder to a Position. In such an Event, the Holder of the Position may Use their Discretion to Exercise the Rights of the Group that were Delegated by the Shareholders of the Group without being Subject to a Vote.

Enterprise idea "Goo Clinic":
Development costs: 25 green goo, 2.5₣
Crunch: Adventurers may gain one hit point while in town for each green goo spent.
Fluff: Early experiments have shown that slime goo has disinfecting and minor analgesic properties if applied to the skin. Though it is impractical to stuff goo in your wounds, it is theorized that taking a bath in goo and saltwater solution will hasten recovery of wounds both combat and surgical.
