Role

Chapter 1

Well, not long after I were made Provost Magistrate I messed up pretty big.
I marked these two real young adventurers for taking this guy's things from
the urn in Hamsah Mu'tazz, and my guards killed one of them. Well, the one
that was a criminal then gave his stuff to the one that was a ghost and
surrendered. Right in front of me the one that was a ghost gave all that
armor he'd stolen back to the one that had just died. I argued with them
lots and eventually marked them again, killing the first one to die a second
time.

Lord Grurk heard about this and ordered me to the Spire. I think by now he
might've known I wasn't real pleased with him, and he's got a way of talking
to you where he'll twist whatever you'll say into the worst possible
interpretation and then get real angry if you try to clarify at all. He told

might've known I wasn't real pleased with him, and he's got a way of talking
to you where he'll twist whatever you'll say into the worst possible
interpretation and then get real angry if you try to clarify at all. He told
me I was going to fall from my post as soon as he got done talking with the
Great Ki-Rin and Lord Drunsthol because I'd marked these two twice for the
same crime and had killed an 'innocent.' Couldn't help but think of him
kiling the Badeker right after we'd done business with him at that moment.

Well, I came back, and hadn't been cast down yet. Lord Grurk didn't seem to
have much to say about it all, but eventually he and the Great Ki-Rin ordered
me into the Memorial Hall, where I told my version of the story to Lord
Velkurah.

The Grandmaster let me tell my story without interrupting me, and offer why I
thought I had been doing the right thing. I felt and still do feel that
those two were mocking the Law by evading the spirit of it like that. Lord
Velkurah seemed to agree with me, but said I must still be punished and asked
what I thought should be done.

I told him I could see why I should be cast out, but also could see reasons
for me to stay as Provost. In the end, I felt that I was still the most
capable to lead, and hadn't been acting to help myself at all, so I should
remain Provost at least until one more suitable to lead could be found.Lord
Velkurah seemed to agree, but said I must still be punished as was the way of
the Spire. He asked me what I thought a reasonable punishment would be, and
I offered forbidding me to call my lieutenants for some time. The Ki-Rin
told me I couldn't call them for one elven eve.One! That was pretty much
the weakest slap on the wrist I could've gotten, and I was both shocked and
honored that he thought my proposed punishment were suitable.

Lord Grurk didn't look too pleased about this at all, and I gotta say it made
him a lot less scary in my eyes to see him get overruled by the Great Ki-Rin.
Wonder if there ain't gonna be a big conflict between those two soon though.
