  1. Descartes
  2. Le Grand-Pressigny
  3. Ligueil
  4. Loches
  5. Montrésor
  6. Preuilly-sur-Claise

gollark: Maybe throw in a free reusable water bottle too, people like those.
gollark: There's no reason you couldn't do both.
gollark: Isn't the personhood thing about being able to sue them? It's not like they're meaningfully people in that they can directly vote or whatever.
