* 2nd Phase: Choose a New Person
** If you do not have available space in any palaces, you must discard a different person before placing your new person.
* 3rd Phase: Event
** After the event resolves, any palaces which are unoccupied lose 1 floor.
* 4th Phase: Scoring

=== End-of-round Scoring ===
