In subject of: Gildarts Averey Banned From All Commerce

_________________________________________________________________________
On that cold Decembris morning, two female figures - that of the Grand
Inquisitor, Empena dul Cybinese, and that of the Grand Magnate, Caterina dul
Decapua - stood side-by-side on the steps of the cathedral, drawing a small
crowd.

But it was the latter who stepped forward to speak to the throng, her usually
soft voice raised so that she might be heard.

"People of Lithmore City. Know that the former Poet Knight, Gildarts Averey,
has been officially and formally banned from all commerce within Lithmore.
Anyone found to be helping Mage Gildarts circumvent this ban will be reported
to the Order and will be placed upon the Merchants' Blacklist themselves.

"In addition, anyone who comes forward and offers solid information to the
Order which then leads to the arrest of Mage Gildarts will be rewarded quite
handsomely from my own personal coffers.

"The Guild of Merchants stands fully behind the Order in our mutual desire to
see this man captured and cleansed. Any and all information which might lead
to his capture would be appreciated. But, as ever, do not try to engage him
yourself. Mage Gildarts is highly dangerous, being both strong and
deceptive.

"For those who are unaware of what he looks like: he is a handsome man,
Lithmorran with a beard and well-groomed hair. Blonde-haired and blue-eyed.
He is also quite tall, perhaps around six feet and three or four inches. He
will probably be cloaked if he reveals himself at all, wearing either a
bardic cloak dyed a shade of blue or a long linen cloak in black. He may
also be in possession of the late Lord Earl Marshall's helmet with the visor
which has the fiery eyes painted upon it."

After a pause, the Grand Magnate then offered a quiet, "Thank you for your
assistance," before she returned to her place at the Grand Inquisitor's side.
The two women conversed amongst themselves for a moment before they then
parted ways - Her Holy Honor slipping back within the cathedral while
Mistress dul Decapua moved through the square to mount her snow-white
palfrey.

_________________________________________________________________________
On a cold morning in Januarius the Earl Marshall Arielle le Kekoa made an
announcement to the city of Lithmore. It was as follows:

"Dear People of Lithmore. It is with regret that I inform you that the Baron
of Maides Zhar ab Arianrhod has been dishonourable discharged from the
knights Lithmorran. The reasons for such were as follows, showing extreme
rudeness to a superior officer, insubordination, threats made against a
superior officer, false claims regarding what he has accomplished,
dereliction of duty... He made claims that the mages and heretics within
Lithmore were no longer his problem.

This is not even taking into account the various reports from others I have
received regarding him as a knight. I deemed it clear that he did not know
what it meant to be a knight and his attitude was dishonourable and not
following the knightly tenets. He was offered various chances but continued
with his rude behaviour and so I had no choice but to expel him from the
knights.

Please be assured citizens that noone who does not deserve to be a knight
will remain as one. Your safety is paramount to us and we cannot do this if
we have knights whom act in ways that damage the order or cause danger to the
population. The order is here to protect all of you and protect you we
shall. Anyone who has concerns or issues regarding my knights should feel
free and safe to speak to me about them, I will take each and every one
seriously.

Lord bless you all."

_________________________________________________________________________
On a cool evening, shortly after the Earl Marshall's speech, the former Earl
Marshall, and former Knight, Zhar ab Arianrhod, addressed a gathering of
people at the crossroads.

"Lithmore, the Earl Marshall has discharged me from the Knights Lithmorran on
erroneous reasons. She never identified herself as the Earl Marshall, when
she was giving me orders, thus I did not follow them. When she told me that
I was not doing my duty, I told her that in the four weeks I was the Earl
Marshall, I have driven out or captured nearly all the heretics and mages in
Lithmore. The keyword is 'nearly'. I question why she is in the position
she is in, if she cannot understand basic Lithmorran. Following this, she
called me a liar, and I told her that a Tubori has no place to call a
Lithmorran noble a liar. Since she based her opinion of me based on rumors,
I told her that the rumors about how swiftly I can correct a lack of
etiquette are indeed true, and she took this as a threat, which led to my
discharge. In the interest of full disclosure, I also said that this city is
no longer my concern, as I was preparing to leave for the Farin Pass once
more. I had originally assumed that she was planning to promote me to
Grandmaster, to manage the Lithmorran Chapter of the Knights- my words were
meant to reflect this. I never said mages or heretics were not my concern.
The Earl Marshall is the one who is lying here, and distorting my words. The
Queen's is full of witnesses who saw our exchange. The Earl Marshall
returned my coldly polite words with hostility and made no attempt to hide
her dissatisfaction of me, clearly in violation of the Knightly tenents that
she holds so dear.

Let it be known that you have invited a Tubori worm in your midst- one who
does not understand the meaning of Noblesse Oblige-- that those with power
should use it for the benefit of others. And I apologize for making little
to no effort in avoiding this turn of events. Why? Because the Knights of
Lithmore are not the Knights of the frontlines. I have no interest in
wasting my time here. Up until now, I have disregarded the vile words some
of you have said about me, and it is exactly because of my virtue that I did
so. But the latest ones, and spoken so publicly, I cannot ignore.

We are at war, Lithmore. From within and without, the taint of magery and
sin erodes our faith and our souls. The Daravi have been a thorn in our side
for a considerable amount of time, and we have already suffered one tragedy-
and lost one capital to them. They are relentless. They will not stop. If
they are let through the Pass, they will come and they will slay you, your
loved ones, and take away everything from you- and what little they do not
get their hands on, they will toss to the demons to play with. Make no
mistake, Lithmore: Every time you fight your brothers and sisters, and every
time you strike your guardians, you are that much closer to the path that
leads to unimaginable torment in the Abyss.

Therefore, before I leave to fight in Your name, and for Your sake, allow me
to share with you some words that have helped me on the frontlines:

Fight. Resist. Do not hesitate. Fight with the Arms of cold steel against
those who would seek to destroy your Faith and your Soul. And if you have
not the Arms, then use your fists. And if they take away your fists, use
your feet. Resist. If you cannot use your feet, then use your bones. And
if you have no more bones, then finally, use your life. Fight. Fight and
endure, Lithmore. One day a morning shall rise over our Realm, and we shall
have no more enemies. For our Kingdom is like the field tended to by good
men. And those men, goodness and mercy shall follow forever. Their cup
shall overflow.

That is all."

In the depths of winter, to the surprise of the cold and weary in southside,
those carts bearing the Le Serre Crest were spotted once more down the
streets of southside, headed for the almshouse.

While the carts come late this year, it would seem the delay is due to the
Seneschal and Grand Magnate offering their own services for the procural of
firewood, resulting in more wood being delivered than had in previous years
when it was just Le Serre.

While belated, The people of Southside, especially those who were unable to
procure enough wood to last the winter, are delighted by this delivery as it
hopefully means more shall survive through the winter.

The Lady Seneschal Margaux ab Aguarossa stated, "These two people before you
have betrayed their Queen, and through a combination of selfishness and
greed, came very close to throwing the kingdom and Her Royal Majesty's
marriage into turmoil." A breath is taken before she launches more fully into
matters, "This lady here is Zoraida de Levdis, daughter of the poor baron of
Levdis in Farin, who must surely despair for the path his blood has chosen to
take. Long had she pined for the heart and attentions of our good and noble
royal Rogelio de Montford- now His Majesty and Our Queen's Consort- and thus
she conceived a plan. She found this man- Jacinto Belmonte- whose skills as
an actor and lust for coin far exceeded the strength of his morals, and
together the two of them hatched a scheme to trick the Queen, her court and
her people that they had married in secret beneath the Farin sun and was even
attempting to back it with a false pregnancy. If this plot had succeeded,
the royal marriage would have been shattered and ties between Farin and
Lithmore would have fallen apart with potentially disastrous consequences."

"Thanks to the efforts of our diligent Reeves, loyal citizens and members of
the nobility, this plot was uncovered and the confessions duly presented to
Her Royal Majesty. In her wisdom, she has granted leave for them both to be
executed for Treason, each as befits the class of their birth and the
severity of their crime. Let it be known that crimes of this nature against
our beloved Crown and Queen will always be met with the severity that they
deserve," said the Lady Seneschal.

The Lady Justiciar Rimilde von Rievirkrintz specified on the execution and
said, "As Zoriada de Levdis is noble born, she will be granted some grace,
and given a lesser execution and will be beheaded by sword, while Jacinto
Belmont will be drawn and quartered and his limbs will be sent to the corners
of the Kingdom to demonstrate to all the severity of their crimes. This will
ensure that all of the Kingdom knows their horrendous acts and the Queen's
justice that was served here today."

"I saw it all," Begins the drunken ramble of a merchant at the Queen's inn.
"Great, terrible vines in the guild hall and a voice claiming to be the
Rubeus Manus shouting from beyond them. Bofaha was there, threatening to
give them what-for. Soon we hear this massive thunderclap and silence, and
Bofaha goes to find the Grand Inquisitor..."

His friend chimes in then - a spice seller from the Vavardi quarter. "That's
when I'm moving through the crossroads. A massive crowd was gathered there,
all stopped up and forming a circle around the Grand Inquisitor Cybinese, the
hillman and the High Inquisitor Astartes... And worse yet, a great, terrible
wolf. It was no trick of the ear when the creature began to talk, calling
itself the Rubeus of the Rubeus Manus. I think that's the leader of the
damned witch cult."

The spice seller takes another swig of an ale bought to her by the avid
listeners. "The Grand Inquisitor made to parley with the creature, though
the other two wanted to outright kill it. Just as well, because it said some
things - most of which went over my head. But it said they were in the
Merchants guild hall looking for things that belonged to Mechislav Krysov,
the dead mage, and that they were writing to the Grand Magnate and didn't get
the answers they wanted. It said they're not responsible for all the rogue
mage attacks... (believe that if you will), and The Grand Inquisitor warned
the Rubeus of a particularly dangerous mage, like she wanted to strike a
deal."

"So then they fought?" Asks a bloke at the bar, "Get to the fighting
part."

"No, that was the strangest thing - I mean other than a talking wolf and the
leader of the Rubeus Manus making an appearance. The wolf just talked and
then made to leave. It'd be heresy to think it was any other reason than
because it was outnumbered, but it genuinely didn't seem to want to
attack."

"Nonsense." Calls someone from the other side of the bar, "It probably had
babies to sacrifice at an altar and it was growing late past the witching
hour."

"I heard they killed everyone in the merchants, even you -" Says a florist in
surprise, prodding a finger at the spice seller.

The conjecture and disagreement grows louder and more speculative as the
conversation continues, leaving little left to be gleaned from the
discussion.

_________________________________________________________________________
Standing in front of the Hollow Globe Theater, The new Poet Knight, Belamy
Balan, stood in front of a gathering of troubadours and the city folk alike,
speaking in a clear Lithmorran with the hint of an accent home to the Islands
of Tubor.

"Greetings to all of you. It is my great honor to be accepted to the City of
Lithmore with such a welcome crowd. As many of you know, we have been
without a Poet Knight for quite some time, and while The poet Laudate Veilus
op Tethno has filled the roll with what I believe to be a spectacular
excellence, it has been long held that he should have a supporter, and
someone to assist the Laudate in their duties. I am so glad to be able to
fulfill this role, and am humbled by the opportunity. It is what I have
aspired to, and hope to fill the office with Excellence. For we in the
troubadours wish to bring you all the entertainment, culture, and news of the
city with our best foot forward. We currently have some of the finest
actors, dancers, and musicians with us, and it is my hope to assist them in
the planning of events, and bringing what the people need directly to them;
Morale, in the service of Her Royal Majesty, and for you the cherished
citizens of our fine land.

I will not take up anymore of your time, but again, with all sincerity, and
my deepest gratitude, thank you. Thank you for placing your trust in me, and
thank you for supporting us as we seek to bolster all of you whilst you
proceed through your day to day activities."

Once finished, the bronze-skinned Tubori, gave a courtly bow before
performing a series of sults, and flips for the crowds entertainment, heading
into the theater with an enthusiastic wave while onlookers clapped and
cheered.
