Minor correction is a military punishment within the Accessory disciplinary apparatus, administered by [[Ollery|Chief Accessory 'Butcher' Ollery]] and delivered in a fixed, graded scale of four, six, or twelve lashes - House of Open Wounds, ch 6. Its name deliberately understates the physical violence it denotes, a naming convention consistent with the broader Accessory culture of bureaucratic euphemism.

The punishment's defining structural feature is the three-tier severity scale and the requirement that the exact lash count be verified by the Tally Officer before the sentence is carried out - House of Open Wounds, ch 6. This verification step distinguishes minor correction from an unregulated beating: it is a procedural act, logged and measured, embedded in the institutional machinery rather than left to the momentary temper of the punisher.

The system appears only once in the surviving record, during Ollery's tenure as Chief Accessory, and its appearance establishes it as a defined, routine component of military discipline rather than an ad hoc or extraordinary measure - House of Open Wounds, ch 6.

== The System ==
=== How It Works ===
Minor correction is a flogging carried out in one of three fixed severities: four lashes, six lashes, or twelve lashes - House of Open Wounds, ch 6. Before the punishment is physically administered, the Tally Officer verifies the exact count that has been assigned, ensuring the sentence matches the grade prescribed - House of Open Wounds, ch 6. The punishment is then delivered by [[Ollery|Chief Accessory 'Butcher' Ollery]] - House of Open Wounds, ch 6.

=== Who Operates It ===
[[Ollery|Chief Accessory 'Butcher' Ollery]] is the named administrator of minor correction - House of Open Wounds, ch 6. The Tally Officer performs the count-verification step, confirming the prescribed number of lashes before the sentence proceeds - House of Open Wounds, ch 6. The source does not identify who imposes the sentence, who the recipient may be, or what range of offences triggers the punishment.

=== Limits & Costs ===
The system is bounded by its three-grade scale; the maximum severity recorded is twelve lashes - House of Open Wounds, ch 6. The requirement of Tally Officer verification before delivery constrains the administering officer from exceeding or under-delivering the prescribed count - House of Open Wounds, ch 6. Beyond these structural limits, the source does not describe further constraints, exemptions, or physical consequences beyond the lashes themselves.
