Trial By Fire
IN THE ALTERNIAN HIGH COURT OF COMBAT
HER IMPERIOUS CONDESCENSION, ) Plaintiff, ) v. ) No. 431 CR 8282 ARANEA SERKET, ) n/k/a MINDFANG, a/k/a ) Cal. Q MARQUISE SPINNERET MINDFANG, ) Defendant. ) NOW COMES our glorious empress, represented by her legislacerator, Neophyte Redglare, and for her complaint states as follows: CLASSIFIED |
The up-and-coming Legisacerator Neophyte Redglare, a talented teal-blood, was the pritmary prosecutor and persecutor of the Marquise. Aided by her dragon lusus (who would later be an iconic tool of the Summoner's rebellion), Redglare managed to track down, seriously wound, and arrest Mindfang, an unprecedented and unrepeated feat. Although the setup to Mindfang's trial looked ideal for Redglare (and grim for Mindfang), the Marquise used her psychic mind-controlling abilities to turn the lowblood court observers against Redglare, leading in her gruesome death by hanging.
Thought to be engineered entirely by Mindfang, there is evidence that Redglare's membership, or at least sympathy, to the banned heretical Cult of the Signless led to manipulation of the trial by higher powers. Read Redglare's original case notes... Neophyte Redglare was fully licensed by the ALDC, the Alternian Legislaceration and Destructarbitration Committee.
