The Death Of August

[Jordan1921 373]

Pieces of paper from a Grand Kingdom address are nailed to posts across the kingdom of Urguan detailing its workings as well as a extract from it being slapped up in the Standing Inn, it reads:

"Narvak oz Urguan"

Let it be known that August, the barkeep at the Standing Inn, was brought in for trial two stone days ago. His charges were for the murder of Fili Grandaxe, and attempted murder of Raknol Grandaxe, Lori Ireheart and Hogarth Irongut. August was given a speedy trial, where the state prosecution presented its case and August and appropriate accomplices and legal aids were allowed to present their defence.

The Court of the Mountains was presided over by Sharr Irongut representing the Clergy, Thurland Grandaxe representing the Clans and Hogarth Irongut representing the Grand King. The Court of the Mountains, in its wisdom, found August guilty of the murder of Fili Grandaxe and attempted murder of Hogarth Irongut and Raknol Grandaxe.

The plaintiff reasoned that within the Standing Inn his own laws are carried out, however, regardless of nation the murder of respected Dwarves and Thanes of the Grand Kingdom is an offense and the punishment is capital.

August was executed shortly after the trail, the High Prophet reading him a last prayer as it occurred.

Let this be a lesson to those who murder and torture innocents, no matter if they are Dwed, Uruk, Elger or Humros. The Grand Kingdom shall not tolerate those who fly in the face of morals and decency such as August did.

Justice of the Court of the Mountains Hogarth Irongut has made a public release today, and commented on the matter “I knew August personally and my sympathies go out to his friends and loved ones, sadly this is a necessary evil in order to make Athera a better place from those with the Khorvadic intent on murder and torture. He was well known for murder and torture of innocents, including a six year old Elven girl.”

Demagol raises a brow "Anthos? Aren' weh in Athera..lioke..ah twu realms aweh frum Anthos?"

[Fitermon 668]

Glacio Nereus has a solemn expression at seeing the news, and he murmurs, "Poor August," under his breath softly. He then goes somewhere private and begins to celebrate and cheer.

A scream of rage and of loss comes from Xirena as she reads over one such paper, quickly tearing it to shreds.

[Burkester 1247]

Rex Rusk'Dom nods in approval "Krug willz id!"

[The Elder Eye 101]

If one listened...

In the far distance, you may hear the sound...

Of Dwarves rejoicing.

[Heff 2460]

On the distant wind the sounds of halflings drinking in merriment is heard
