Greetings

Squire Erdboren,

I know its not a surrender.... but it merely be a chat between yourself and Mister Belfast.

I am merely going along to ensure tempers attempt to remain calm for all parties concerned. Should anything come of the discussion, it will be addressed at the current time.

Brother Belfast,

Should something come of the discussion and IF charges filed, Mister Haroldson is quite adept at Baronial Law and such. You could do far, far worse for a public defender.

Brother Aldric,
I've heard tales of the Tellinghasts of Yore... and you have absolutely no idea on their level of zeal based upon the sources of my information. When ye get a chance, speak with some of the remaining Templars and clergy from then.... or some of the long time residents. You might be entertained or horrified- I know not which.
Fact remains, Haroldson offered to help the man despite differences in ideologies- at least acknowledge teh man's offer to assist instead of baiting.

Greetings Gentlemen and Gentlewomen,

Before this gets out of hand and devolves more so into a religious or legal conversation I remind all that this is simply a matter of Order. There is a necromantic criminal, assumed to be in the Inverted Tower, and lawfulness must be maintained.

Brother Belfast is agreeable to handing himself over to be investigated and this matter is now in the hands of the Baronial Guards. I suggest none interfere with their investigation and speak no more. If you have words to say about it you may do so in a formal setting as a legal testimonial to the Baronial Guard. Any further words, for or against this man, will only add to misconception in the matter and your desire to cause unrest should be noted.

Good Illyrin Soral, if you happen to retrieve the notes you mentioned please allow me to assist the Witch Hunter you intend to hand them over to with the investigation. Before we all decide to cast ourselves into the fires of this necromancer’s abyss it is best to learn what we will be fighting against. I mean no offense to good Grimkjell Eirson, but I feel a blunt assault will only lead to more bodies for this criminal to use. An acknowledgement is deserving of those who brought this matter to head. I offer myself to be of any service required to research this necromancer or reconnoiter the Inverted Tower.

Allow the law to maintain Order. Allow those who wish to track down this necromancer criminal to do so. Take whatever does not help in these two tasks and find some other use for yourself.

With all respect, enough.

Mr. Belfast has been kind enough to cooperate. The guard is involved as are multiple persons of repute. The situation will be resolved in person,

We have a skilled necromancer to deal with. Now is not the time for arguing.

There's work to do. Lets each get back to it. Please.

Thank you Ms. GraLucia. Your clarity is a breath of fresh air.

Br. Belfast has not admitted to killing in cold blood, he has admitted to taking the life of those refusing to surrender while acting in defence of himself and others. If we pressed charges every time a criminal was killed by a citizen instead of being brought to the prisons, even just every time I have witnessed this myself, the cells would be overflowing with our friends. As Br. Belfast is willingly submitting to questioning on this, I will defer to Bishop Chance and Templar Cooper whether they feel this is within the purview of the Church of Valos rather than the Baronial Guard. In addition, I do not feel these extreme measures are necessary, and an escort by Squire Erdboren should suffice, if the Church still wishes Br. Belfast to be questioned as such.

Mister Mapo, if you wish to preach your heresy in this Barony, I will ask you to present to me or another member of Nobility your Royal Writ of Existence. If you do not have one, as all formerly suspended laws have been reinstated at the decree of Count Everest, you will immediately surrender yourself to the Baronial Guard for the appropriate punishment. If you refuse or resist, I will not stop the Church from acting accordingly.

Haroldson, do not insult my family again. This is a warning.


I still have not received a report on this situation with this Necromancer and our dear ally William. Once I am informed, I will be able to shed some light on this. I will withhold commentary until then. However, I will ask that discussion involving religion and Br. Belfast be ended, with the exception of Bishop Chance or Templar Cooper's decision on how it should be handled.

As I have stated before, this necromancer needs to be handled as soon as possible. As a mage I do not want this fiend to be walking free. I ask any information on this Necromancer be passed onto the mages so we can handle this fiend and stop it from harming others.

Mister Belfast,

It sounds to me like you found something you believe in and you're willing to fight for it. That's good! I wish you luck in the future.

[strike]Miss[/strike]Lady [strike]Tarter[/strike]Tartaros and Mister Dumourne,

If my new mage teacher lets me, I would be happy to help you break whoever's making nightmare things. My mage teacher told me that kind of bad magic is where they come from... so I want to help. I could even try to help keep them out of your land, if you wanted.
