Transcript of the Trial of Tomas Savos


This record had been edited for clarity: The childish babblings of certain individuals in the Counselor's Hall have been removed, yet pertinent discussion amongst the mature observers has been retained. The trial itself has not been edited in any way.



Gregor Corosi the Scribe: *quietly* It appears that the trial is starting...
a male voice: All rise! Hear ye, hear ye!
a male voice: This court is now open for the trial of criminal cases with jury.
a male voice: All those having anything to do before the Honorable Justice Verina, Justice of the Court
a male voice: draw near and attend.
a male voice: This court is now in session. Please be seated.
a female voice: Britannia versus Tomas.
Justice Verina: Good evening. The clerk shall announce counsel.
a female voice: Douglass Edwards as the Plaintiff, representing the government of Britannia.
Douglass Edwards: Good evening, Your Honor.
a female voice: George Palmer, for the defense.
George Palmer: Good evening, Your Honor.
Justice Verina: The clerk shall read the charges against the Defendant and report his pleas.
a female voice: The Defendant, Tomas Savos, has pleaded Not Guilty to the following charges:
a female voice: Conspiracy, in the poisoning of Britannian crops
a female voice: Treason, in the use of Britannian Royal Guard resources to incite Orcish Attacks
Justice Verina: Very well, and again, good evening to you all.
Justice Verina: Art thou prepared to open?
Douglass Edwards: Indeed, Your Honor.
Justice Verina: Thou mayest do so.
Douglass Edwards: Ladies and gentlemen of the court. I wish to tell you a couple of stories.
Douglass Edwards: First, I wish to tell you of a little boy.
Douglass Edwards: This young boy was wandering through the farms of West Britain not too long ago
Douglass Edwards: Exploring, as young boys do. Seeking fun in what would normally be a safe adventure
Douglass Edwards: The boy was minding his own business, until out of nowhere came an arrow.
Douglass Edwards: This arrow was fired by an orcish scout...
Douglass Edwards: A scout provoked into attacking an area that once was safe.
Douglass Edwards: His wounds are healing now, but if it weren't for that attack...
Douglass Edwards: The boy would not be missing school lessons, and would be playing with his friends
Douglass Edwards: And it may only be a matter of time before another enraged orc comes to another
Douglass Edwards: normally peaceful area of Britannia... provoked into violence more extreme than even orcs are
Douglass Edwards: usually capable of
Douglass Edwards: And next time, it may be more than a wound.
Douglass Edwards: The other story I would like to tell you, is of a farmer...
Douglass Edwards: Or former farmer, perhaps I should say
Douglass Edwards: Koressa used to have quite a few cows
Douglass Edwards: He used their milk to pay for everything he owned
Douglass Edwards: It is no wonder he has been driven to madness
Douglass Edwards: His cows all perished a little over a month ago
Douglass Edwards: Died to a poison concocted by Tomas and his cohorts
Douglass Edwards: Forgive me, my friends, for these graphic renditions.
Douglass Edwards: I only wish to convey the horrors that have been endured from the terrible occurances
Duglass Edwards: in the heart of our wonderful kingdom.
Douglass Edwards: The prosecution will show beyond any reasonable doubt that Tomas' poisoning of orcish crops was
Douglass Edwards: the direct cause of orcish attacks.
Douglass Edwards: We will further show that Tomas actively attempted to hide the truth behind the poisonings
Douglass Edwards: And that he had plans to spread this poison throughout Britannia.
Douglass Edwards: Our wish is that the jury carefully hear all evidence presented from this point forward.
Douglass Edwards: That they decide only upon the facts of this case. Thank you.
Justice Verina: The Prosecution hath concluded its opening statement.
Justice Verina: Is the Defense prepared?
George Palmer: Indeed, Your Honor.
George Palmer: Tomas is a victim of circumstance, and a clever plot to frame him.
George Palmer: He took charge of the investigations in the farm out of request from Magnus Grey
George Palmer: Minister of Agriculture
George Palmer: And that is the only connection to the poisonings he has.
George Palmer: It is with regret that I say we do not know who has framed Tomas, or who is behind the poison
George Palmer: Only that Keeping him locked up prevents Tomas from performing his duties
George Palmer: and finding the real culprit behind these foul acts
George Palmer: Like our Plaintiff, I too wish that the jury carefully hear all evidence.
George Palmer: Pay attention to the curious nature of it all, and realize how thin the
George Palmer: evidence against Tomas really is. Thank you.
Justice Verina: Let the record show that we hath concluded opening statements.
Justice Verina: Douglass Edwards, thou mayest begin.
Douglass Edwards: Thank you, Your Honor.
Douglass Edwards: The People calls Gregor Corosi to the stand.
Douglass Edwards: Gregor Corosi, are you currently employed by the Lycaeum?
Gregor Corosi: I am.
Douglass Edwards: And what is your job?
Gregor Corosi: I make copies of books, and examine books to verify the authors.
Douglass Edwards: To clarify, you are responsible for determining if books are forgeries or not?
Gregor Corosi: That is correct.
Douglass Edwards: You were recently asked to compare the handwriting of two notes, is that correct?
Gregor Corosi: I was.
Douglass Edwards: Are these the notes you examined?
Gregor Corosi: Yes, those appear to be the ones.
Douglass Edwards: The Prosecution wishes to submit these notes as Peoples Exhibit the First.
a female voice: I have received it.
Douglass Edwards: Could the clerk please read the second note?
a female voice: Marcosi, I have some new orders from the Empress. First, we need to keep
a female voice: an eye on Casca better. His actions have slowed us down too much.
a female voice: Second, we need to get Magnus Grey distracted more.
a female voice: Third, the orcs have learned a little too much, and news might spread to Britannia
a female voice: about what we're doing. We need to work towards getting rid of some of their headache.
a female voice: Good luck, and keep me informed. TS
Douglass Edwards: You compared this note to the first, a report of a Casca speech written by Tomas Savos,correct?
Gregor Corosi: Yes
Douglass Edwards: And your findings?
Gregor Corosi: To the best of my abilities, I found nothing to indicate that they either note was a forgery.
Douglass Edwards: The Prosecution wishes to submit a damaged parchmant as Peoples Exhibit the Second.
Douglass Edwards: This was found by the mountains north of the Britain Farms.
Douglass Edwards: Could you please examine this item, and tell us what you can make of it?
Gregor Corosi: It is very damaged... but... it appears to be a list of some sort.
Gregor Corosi: I think... yes... one of them items on the list is Casca, and Castle Blackthorn
Gregor Corosi: is listed next to his name
Gregor Corosi: I'd guess that it is a list of people and their residences... but it is hard to read.
Douglass Edwards: That is all, thank you.
Douglass Edwards: Your witness.
George Palmer: Can you assert that both notes were written by Tomas Savos?
Gregor Corosi: It is extremely unlikely that the notes were written by two people
Gregor Corosi: but I did not witness Tomas write either.
George Palmer: So would it be possible that two different people wrote the notes?
Gregor Corosi: It would take a lot of skill, time, and luck... but yes, it would be possible.
George Palmer: Is it also possible that both notes were forgeries by the same individual?
Gregor Corosi: Yes, that would certainly be possible.
George Palmer: Do you know how the second note was obtained?
Gregor Corosi: I heard that it was found on the corpse of a man that I understand
Gregor Corosi: was killed by Im...
Douglass Edwards: Objection, hearsay!
Justice Verina: Sustained.
George Palmer: Thank you. That is all.
Justice Verina: Plaintiff, your next witness?
Douglass Edwards: The People calls Carina to the stand.
Douglass Edwards: You helped a boy about a month ago. Tell us about him.
Carina: Boy? Right! He was a young boy, he got shot by an orcish arrow in the leg.
Douglass Edwards: Why do you believe that orc was there?
George Palmer: Objection. Calls for speculation.
Justice Verina: Sustained.
Douglass Edwards: Have you ever seen Tomas Savos near your home?
Carina: es. After the orc truce nonsense, he was searching around by the mountains
Carina: north of my home.
Douglass Edwards: Perhaps searching for his list of residences of important people.
Douglass Edwards: No more questions.
Justice Verina: Your witness, Mr Palmer.
George Palmer: No questions, Your Honor.
Justice Verina: Mr Edwards, doest thou have any further witnesses?
Douglass Edwards: Yes. Your Honor. The People call *the crystal fades into muffled voices*



Gem: hmm indeed
Lianna: very interesting
Alina: *wonders about muffled voices*
Gem: perhaps we should go to the court?
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: I suspect someone 'as interfered wi' th' crystal's ability t' transmit.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: An' whome'er that witness was goin' t' be...
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: ye can bet that th' crystal was cut fer a reason.
Gem: Does anyone have a rune to the court?
Alina: no
Martyna Z'muir: Its not at the court
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: We dinnae e'en know which court this trial occurs in.
Gem: where is it?
Thanatos Angelos: It's a secret trial
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: For all we know, it could be takin' place in Casca's basement.
Gem: This bodes ill
Aridas: the scribe said it was a secret location
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: We should hae conked 'im an' taken th' rune.
Gem: Aye
Striker: pitty theres not a wway to trace the link from the crystals
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: I am willin' t' bet though...
Gem: Mayhaps the scribe will find a way back
Galen: Hmm.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: th' crystal will restore itself shortly, an' just in time fer either th' Defense...
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: or th' Verdict.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: An' we'll be left blind an' deaf t' who it was that testified.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: But if ye ask me...
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: It was Casca 'imself.
Martyna Z'muir: Thats a tad unlikely
Striker: No, I bleive Ra'Dian may have a pooint
Gem: Dopes anyone here trust Casca?
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Oh, I trust Casca.
Striker: if casca is on the stand
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: I trust 'im t' fill 'is coffers wi' Britannian spoils.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: I trust 'im t' drag us into war.
Flindo: should we go to Yew?
Striker: All of us here would be listening for him to incrimmonate himself
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: An' I trust 'im t' desecrate what is left o' Virtue.
Galen: *softly*
Galen: Martyna...
Martyna Z'muir: Aye?
Galen: You said it wasn't the Court of Truth....You had someone check?
Martyna Z'muir: The scribe said it was in a secret location..
Galen: I'll check a few places....
Martyna Z'muir: I have a rune to the courtroom however
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: An' while it may nae 'ae been Casca up next, whome'er it was was someone that Edwards wasnae
Aridas: come back and let us know
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: certain if 'e was goin' t' get t' take th' stand.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Th' long pause in response indicates 'e was likely shufflin' around t' get th' next witness.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Per'aps it was Grey, but I doubt they'd use 'im as a witness now that 'e is in exile.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: An' some'ow I doubt that a Britannian Court would...
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *strokes his chin thoughtfully*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Then ag'in...
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: It could ver' well be Imperus Noxum on th' stand.



Justice Verina: *voices begin to become less muffled* ...wards, doest thou have any further witnesses?
Douglass Edwards: No, Your Honor. The Prosecution rests.
Justice Verina: Very well. George Palmer, thou mayest proceed.
George Palmer: The Defense calls Tomas Savos to the stand.
George Palmer: Did you agree to peace with the Orcs?
Tomas Savos: I agreed to a truce, under the condition that they cease their attacks.
George Palmer: Why did you agree to the truce?
Tomas Savos: We dealt a devistating blow to the orcs in our recent attacks, both on this matter and others.
Tomas Savos: It was clear they were weakened by it all, and likely learned they would be foolish to attack again..
Tomas Savos: at least for a while.
Tomas Savos: We also found evidence in the orc caves that suggested the orcs were not
Tomas Savos: the source of the poison, as was brought forth by Mr. Edwards earlier.
Tomas Savos: Taking this all into concideration, I decided it was best to agree to the truce with the orcs
Tomas Savos: So that we could focus, at least in the short term, on more important problems.
Tomas Savos: I do not believe the orcs will stay to themselves forever, and do not
Tomas Savos: trust their end of the agreement in the long term...
Tomas Savos: But I do believe they are too scared to act, and will remain that way for a while at least.
George Palmer: Did you revoke the truce with the orcs?
Tomas Savos: I did, after being ordered to do so by Lord Casca. But no attacks have been made
Tomas Savos: against orcs, or by orcs since then, as far as I am aware.
George Palmer: Were you searching the woods north of Carina's house?
Tomas Savos: Yes
George Palmer: What were you looking for?
Tomas Savos: At first, I was ensuring that the orcs had indeed left the area
Tomas Savos: During this search, however, I lost an important document.
Tomas Savos: It was a list of the current Royal Council and their homes.
George Palmer: And you returned to search for this list?
Tomas Savos: Yes. I am quite relieved to know it was damaged before any could find it,
Tomas Savos: and that it was first found by Britannian eyes.
Tomas Savos: It was foolish of me to take it out of the Royal Guard offices
George Palmer: Thank you. Your witness.
Douglass Edwards: Can you confirm that you were the author of the report on Casca's speech
Douglass Edwards: analyzed by Gregor Corosi?
Tomas Savos: I did write a report on Casca's speech, and that copy appears to be the one I wrote, bu...
Douglass Edwards: Do you frequent Castle British as you perform your duties as Royal Guard Commander?
Tomas Savos: Yes, among many, many other places.
Douglass Edwards: Did you lead an attack against a mage that goes by the name Imperus Noxum?
Tomas Savos: Yes. He thr...
Douglass Edwards: And you believed him to be killed in this attack?
Tomas Savos: Yes.
Douglass Edwards: You must not have been happy to learn he was still alive.
Tomas Savos: Not particularly.
Douglass Edwards: The Prosecution wishes to submit two additional notes as Peoples Exhibit the Fifth
a female voice: I have receieved them.
Douglass Edwards: These notes were found within Castle British.
Douglass Edwards: Could the clerk please read the notes?
a female voice: The first note reads:
a female voice: TS. From now on, I shall write as Imperus Noxum.
a female voice: Put out that journal of his so people can see his writing style. They've probably forgotten him.
a female voice: In. Nice forgery, eh?
a female voice: The second note reads:
a female voice: TS. Peace with the orcs... lovely.
a female voice: I do wish you hadn't gotten my best alchemist killed though.
a female voice: Don't forget the meeting in the castle courtyard tomorrow.
a female voice: I have some bad news Imperus Noxum is alive.
a female voice: In.
Douglass Edwards: After the evidence we have seen so far, it comes as no suprise to find out why.
Douglass Edwards: No more questions.
Justice Verina: George Palmer, your next witness?
George Palmer: Your Honor, my remaining witness seems to be absent.
Justice Verina: This is unfortunate, dost thou have any further witnesses?
George Palmer: No, Your Honor.
Justice Verina: Then we will proceed to closing statements. Douglass Edwards?
Douglass Edwards: The Prosecution has submitted its case to the court quite plainly.
Douglass Edwards: It is clear that Tomas has conspired with another to bring poison to Britannia,
Douglass Edwards: and incite orcish attacks on our farms.
Douglass Edwards: No one can doubt that it was the poisoning of the orcish crops that incited their attacks
Douglass Edwards: against Britannian farms.
Douglass Edwards: We cannot allow this man to be free, and use his influence to harm more
Douglass Edwards: young boys, farmers, or other Britannian citizens
Douglass Edwards: He must be stopped before his poisons can spread to more crops.
Douglass Edwards: Next, these poisons might be strong enough to kill humans and elves, instead of just livestock.
George Palmer: The Prosecution has brough forth a lot of evidence against Tomas,
George Palmer: but there is sufficient doubt on their links to Tomas.
George Palmer: You cannot deny the possibility that the notes presented are forgeries.
George Palmer: You cannot deny that the notes were all found in ways that could easily have been planted.
George Palmer: Tomas was investigating this case. If he were guilty, surely he wouldn't have
George Palmer: led those assisting him to search more.
George Palmer: The whole incident could easily have been blamed on the orcs and swept under the rug...
George Palmer: But no, Tomas urged that the investigation continue, so that the source
George Palmer: of the problem could be found.
Justice Verina: The jury will now decide the facts of this case, and render a verdict of Guilty or Innocent
Justice Verina: for the charges of Conspiracy and Treason.
Justice Verina: Court will reconvene in four Britannian ho... *a loud crunch is heard, and the crystal goes silent*



Thanatos Angelos: Uh oh.
Alina: hmmm
Galen: Hmm.
Gem: of course
Galen: Muffled voices is one thing...
Rouge: someone stepped on it
Flindo: perhaps the Scribe sat on the crystal?
Lianna: seems that Corina couldn't remember the boy very well
Thanatos Angelos: I don't know... if it was discovered wouldn't someone have said something about finding it first?
Thanatos Angelos: Oh hello
Galen: Good point Than....At the very least, 'what in the Abyss is this...'
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Hello everybody
Alina: hello
Flindo: Hail
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: So...
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Hopefully it all came through clear...
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Until I stepped on it...
Gem: Not all
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: But that was at the end
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: No?
Gem: who was the last prosecution witness?
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Who testified after Carina, an' what were Peoples Exhibits th' Third an' Fourth?
Aridas: we missed one of the witnesses
Lianna: Imperus?
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Yes... well...
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: There was a Royal Guard member as one witness
Alina: there were muffled voices after Corina and blank for awhile
Flindo: *eyes the scribe*
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: As he was testifying, books from orcs were put forth as evidence
Galen: ....
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: They suggested that the orcs poisoned Britannian crops in retaliation
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: And the Royal Guard member confirmed how they were found
Galen: Where was it? The Trial?
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: I really don't know where it was...
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Did this member 'ave a name?
Flindo: was it cold
Aridas: where are the witnesses for the defense? Do you know?
Flindo: was it underground
Gem: how will we know the verdict?
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: It was in a building that I did not recognize
Flindo: *nods*
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: And I was not able to get near a window to see outside
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: It may have been underground...
Flindo: *nods*
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: But as I said... I didn't recognize it
Lianna: who was supposed to be the last defense witness?
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: And wasn't able to look around much
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: I do not know, only that he was absent
Johnny Yuma: if it was underground their would be no windows
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: The plaintiff also called Casca as a witness
Flindo: not true, ever been to wind?
Galen: ...
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *looks to Martyna*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: An' ye thought I was crazy.
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Well I did not actually see a window
Flindo: Casca?
Flindo: so did you see the villian?
Striker: *chuckles as he looks to radian*
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Yes, I saw him
Gem: He testified?
Thanatos Angelos: What did Casca even witness that was pertinent to this trial?
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: He testified about how Tomas became Commander
Thanatos Angelos: Ah.
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: A bit odd if you ask me...
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: A bit?
Lianna: i think so too
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Having such a high ranking position, with so few knowing why he was suggested
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: To be there
Martyna Z'muir: Its not even relevent to the trial..
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: So a member o' th' Royal Guard, Casca, an' someone unknown who was absent.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Were th' people's exhibits three and four both th' Orcish notes, or was that one, an' somethin'
Gem: How will we learn of the verdict?
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: else was th' other?
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Right... no
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: One was three sets of orcish notes
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: And one was a bottle of poison
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Both found in the orcish caves
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Curious.
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: *looks at his pocketwatch*
Lianna: how long till the verdict?
Flindo: the Scribe was speaking about the trial
Alina: will you be placing another crystal so we can hear the verdict?
Flindo: Sir, if you would please continue
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Two hours and twenty minutes, Britannian time
Kaydon Bhey: Now you KNOW the verdict is already in... innocent.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *chuckles*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: I suspect 'e'll be found guilty.
Martyna Z'muir: Aye
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Regardless o' what we believe t' be set up in advance, I suspect Savos is bein' railroaded t'some
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: extent, regardless o' 'is involvement.
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: I would call him innocent... but not because I believe him to be
Alina: will another crystal be placed so we can hear the verdict?
Flindo: i hope the verdict is innocent, but hang'em anyway
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: I do not know enough of the situation to judge fully... there was not enough
Lianna: Carina couldn't remember the boy.
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: evidence presented at this trial
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: If 'e's innocent, 'e'll still be found guilty, an' if this is all conspiracy, 'e'll be discarded as a liability
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: t' whomever is pullin' 'is strings.
Flindo: *nods*
Lianna: aye
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: In either case, we're about t' see how Britannia's new "Justice" really works.
Flindo: Justice works only for the wealthy and powerful
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Untrue...
Lianna: You did not answer. Will you place another communication crystal???
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Yes, I have another with me
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Let me sync them up now before I forget
Lianna: excellent
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: *grumbles*
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: This would be easier without getting hit by pies...
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: There
Flindo: *grins*
Striker: im afraid gregor that some people have no understandign of resepct
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: I would expect a baker would sell pies
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: But ones that are good for throwing...
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: I'm not particularly sure
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Were there any other parts that you missed?
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Other than anythin' said after th' court would reconvene in what sounded like four 'ours...
Thanatos Angelos: How should we know? We missed them.
Thanatos Angelos: *grins*
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Nothing noteworthy was said after that
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: I think ye've well covered it fer us... unless th' Royal Guard member 'ad a name.
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Well, if there was silence, you'd know there was something
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Oh... his name was John Teruli
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Or something like that
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: It was strange sounding
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *nods*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: So it sounds.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *chuckles*
Alina: will we be able to hear the verdict?
Flindo: *looks at pocketwatch*
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Yes, I'll have another crystal out
Lianna: can we get a copy of your rune?
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: I do not know where he works, only that he is a Royal Guard
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: I'm afraid not... the rune is bound to me by some magic
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: I suspect 'e's unwillin' t' risk contempt o' court just so we can all go rabble-rouse.
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: I can't even drop it
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: An' since I'm dead, showin' up there might nae be a good idea on m' part.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *chuckles*
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: *looks at his pocketwatch*
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Well... I should get back
Striker: Aye, and with a warrent for my aresst
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: I'll set the crystal on before the verdict
Striker: might be unwise for me to be there as well
Galen: Thank you for doing this.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Thank ye.
Martyna Z'muir: You need to learn stealth Striker...
Martyna Z'muir: Then you can ignore pesky arrest warrants with ease..
Striker: Stealth is for those whom are fearful
Striker: there is no honor in fear
Martyna Z'muir: Stealth is prudent in these times...



Justice Verina: Would the jury foreman please stand.
Justice Verina: Have you reached a verdict on the charges?
a female voice: Yes, Your Honor.
Justice Verina: On the charge of Conspiracy, how does the jury find the defendant?
a female voice: Guilty.
Justice Verina: On the charge of Treason, how does the jury find the defendant?
a female voice: Guilty
Justice Verina: The court finds the defendant guilty on both charges.
Justice Verina: Mr Savos, as you pleaded innocent, you are hereby remanded to the State for execution.
Justice Verina: Baliff, take this man away.
Justice Verina: Court dismissed.



Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: As I feared...
Lianna: Ra'Dian told us what was going to happen
Flindo: *nods*
Martyna Z'muir: Willard, do hush..
Max von Bayer: Compassion must nay be a virtue of the judge
Galen: Is the feed still active?
Kaydon Bhey: Expediency is a new virtue, methinks.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *looks to Max*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Compassion 'as been redefined.
Lianna: so what's next?
Willard Wonker: but the virtues cannot be corrupted in such a manner
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Cascan Compassion means that we are all bound by law t' 'elp others.
Willard Wonker: *smirks*
Willard Wonker: the horror
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: And ye'll find nothin' o' th' Principles o' Truth, Love, nor Courage in Cascan Virtue.
Martyna Z'muir: Tomas did not plead guilty, thus his punishment is harsher.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *nods*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Cascan Justice.
Thanatos Angelos: As if the punishment for treason would be anything other than execution?
Martyna Z'muir: Actually, Tomas is more than likely guilty...
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Plead guilty or yer punishment is worse if yer found guilty.
Willard Wonker: at least let us watch the execution
Galen: *hand very quietly and subtly on the sword*
Galen: Ah.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: I'd be curious t' know who th' jurors wer, an' 'ow many o' them there were.
Galen: So much for subltelty
Galen: Doesn't really help much does it.
Willard Wonker: *scratches head*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Aye... a 'erd o' unnecessary dragons be invadin'.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Typical.
Lianna: Where is Tomas to be held?
Alina: shhh he is back
Striker: either way get it out
Striker: rule is no pets
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: You heard the verdict, aye?
Willard Wonker: *nods*
Willard Wonker: completely expected
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Unfortunate...
Lianna: I smell conspiracy
Max von Bayer: Aye, and I must say that judge is nay one that practices the virtues
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Though I can't say if it is good that the trial was faulty
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: Or not... because I do not know who actually did any of this
Willard Wonker: *nods*
Willard Wonker: no closer to the truth
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: It sounded like the execution would not be for a while though...
Martyna Z'muir: The penalty for treason has always been death...
Willard Wonker: Isn't that supposed to be the job of the High Council?
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: after I turned the crystal off, I heard somebody mention that sentences
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: have been acted upon rather slowly
Lianna: But what if it was a set up?
Rouge: he in trinsic jail like ricardo was?
Willard Wonker: someone wants Tomas out of the way
Galen: We have to assume he'll be tortured first, though..
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: High Treason is death... treason is not always I do not believe
Gem: They said "execution"
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: May I ask...
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: I do not know where they took Tomas, and I still do not know where that area is
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: I looked around a little more...
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: No windows, only magic to get in or out
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Was Lord Casca there fer th' verdict an' sentencing?
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: No, Casca seemed to have left
Lianna: He knew it was a done deal.
Aridas: any furnishings?
Willard Wonker: confident that everything would turn out as scripted
Aridas: decorations?
Gregor Corosi the Scribe: It looked rather similar to the Court of Truth... I guess
