As far as I understand, SHALL only means that failing to do the action
breaks the rule. Nowhere does it say that breaking rule 869 makes the
election invalid.

Sorry about this. CoE: Quorum was not specified on the first Agoran
Decision, therefore neither decision was initiated.
I wish I had noticed this earlier, but I was starting to count the
votes
and went to check quorum and saw that it was missing. Unfortunately, I
think this means that you can never intiate this decision because you
CAN only do so in a timely fashion.
I don't think that's true. Nothing says that an initiation is invalid
without a quorum. The rules are explicit that an incorrect quorum
invalidates a decision, but even without that, rule 879 is power 2 and
can't override a valid initiation at power 3 I think.
