(3) Any citizen who served as Pharaoh under the Scroll of Ma'at, or is currently serving or will serve as Pharaoh following enactment of this constitution, will automatically be appointed to the Council of Guardians following their service as Pharaoh. The Pharaoh may, with the approval of the Council of Scribes, remove such Guardians from office.
(4) Should any person described in Section 3 decline automatic appointment, resign from the Council of Guardians, or be removed from the office of Guardian, except to serve as Pharaoh or Heir Apparent, they will not be subject to future automatic appointment or its protections.
