+## Creating a Motion in Governance
+
+As mentioned above, the Polkadot v1 Governance is used and the current
+SORA Council uses the Polkadot.JS interface. This section will cover
+what the different governance features are and how to create a motion
+in SORA v2.
+
+### SORA Council
+
+The SORA council can be found in the Council section of the Governace
+drop down menu in
+[Polkadot.js](https://polkadot.js.org/apps/#/council). The main
+council interface will have the names of current members as well as
+runner-up candidates.
+
+![](.gitbook/assets/sora-governance-council.png)
+
+#### SORA Council Motions
+
+Governance proposals in SORA begin as council motions. There are two
+ways to make a motion, by proposing the motion directly or proposing
+an external, by using a [preimage](#preimages) hash that has been created
+already.
+This tutorial will show you how to make a preimage to
+[increase network fees](#increase-network-fees) and [mint
+tokens](#mint-tokens). Then, it will cover [submitting the preimage for council vote](#propose-external).
+
+![](.gitbook/assets/sora-governance-council-motion.png)
+
+##### Propose Motion
+
+This button allows you to create any governance motion from all the
+available options.
+
+::: info
+Only an account within the Council members can create a Council
+motion. Users can create motions, but it will take 45 days to enact.
+:::
+
+###### Increase Network Fees
+
+::: info
+The network fee multiplier depends on the current price of XOR. Fees
+must be increased to match the set amount of ¢20 per transaction.
+:::
+
+To increase SORA network fees;
+
+- Find out what the current network fee is. To do that navigate to the
+  Developer tab, then Chain State drop down. For the selected state
+  query pick `xorFee`and make sure the multiplier is set to
+  `multiplier():u128`. Click on the + sign to query.
+
+  ![](.gitbook/assets/sora-governance-council-fee-calculate.png)
+
+- Now that we know the current fee multiplier is
+  `67,200,000,000,000,000,000,000,000` it is time to make the proposal
+  to double the fee.
+- Navigate to the Governance tab, the Council, then Motions and click on propose motion, then in the proposal section select
+  `xorFee`and from the option choose `updateMultiplier(new
+Multiplier)`this will add the option to input a fee multiplier
+  amount in numbers. In this case we have added `134400000000000000000000000`as it is double the current fee.
+
+![](.gitbook/assets/sora-governance-council-fee-multiply.png)
+
+After you click propose, and confirm the transaction, it will generate
+a [preimage](#preimages). You need this to create your motion.
+
+###### Mint Tokens
+
+In this case, the motion to be proposed is to mint an amount of tokens
+to a given address. To do that;
+
+- Click on propose motion, then in the
+  proposal section select `assets` and from the option section choose
+  `updateBalance`this will add the option to add an address from your
+  address book or you can input the address manually.
+
+- Then add the currency ID (you can find this in Polkaswap within the
+  [Explore Tokens section](https://polkaswap.io/#/explore/token).
+
+- Finally, add the amount in 10^18 precision of tokens to be sent (the number of tokens followed by 18 zeroes).
+
+![](.gitbook/assets/sora-governance-council-propose.png)
+
+After you click propose, and confirm the transaction, it will generate
+a [preimage](#preimages). You need this to create your motion.
+
+###### Preimages
+
+These are proposal drafts that have not been requested to
+governance. After following the above steps, you will find your
+proposal among the list within the Preimage section of the Governance
+drop dowm menu in
+[Polkadot.js](https://polkadot.js.org/apps/#/preimages)
+
+:::info
+Anyone can create a preimage from the [preimage](https://polkadot.js.org/apps/#/preimages). section, but you
+cannot propose it in the Council.
+:::
+
+![](.gitbook/assets/sora-governance-council-preimage.png)
+
+##### Propose External
+
+Now that you have your preimage, copy the hash and back in the Motions
+subsection of the Council option in the Governance dropdown in
+[Polkadot.js](https://polkadot.js.org/apps/#/council) select Propose
+External.
+
+The pop up will ask you for the preimage hash and length. Paste the
+hash and the length will populate automatically. Click propose and
+confirm the transaction. Congratulations, you have created a Council
+Motion.
+
+![](.gitbook/assets/sora-governance-council-external.png)
+
+All that is left is for the Council to vote on it, then, if approved
+it will become a Democracy Referenda that the entire community can
+vote on. **This is the first step to governance!**
