Issued By

VA VE KOSSINZ I VE BIRODAL,

 

The Order of the Crow, as clearly shown in its name, is loyal to the crows of House Barbanov, and as such are oathed by proxy to prevent the harming of the animal which adorns the royal family’s sigil. However, there lives in this plain of existence a species of aviary creatures similar to the crow, though gargantuan in size, known by the Descendants as crowdrakes. These animals are highly dangerous and should most definitely be exterminated when the subjects of the Kongzem are at risk, however the Baron of Sigradz wishes for the Knight’s Table to discuss the validity of these creatures as targets should they not be threatening the northern domain.

 

Earlier this Saint’s day, the aforementioned Squire was given his trial by the Oracle of Maenvestiyaeo, that being to track down and kill a crowdrake residing in the mountains lining the south of Almaris’ northern continent. Crowdrakes have been the target of past Knight Quests, most notably by Ser Alric, the tenth Knight Paramount,  however “The Cavalier” killed a crowdrake who threatened his family’s land. The crowdrake the Baron has been tasked with killing does not threaten the Kongzem’s subjects, nor does it even dwell within its borders, thus His Lordship wishes to ask the Knights of the Table the following;

 

Should the killing of a crowdrake whose existance does not

threaten the Kongzem be allowed by the Order of the Crow?

 

Lord Konstanz wishes for the Knight’s Table to make a decision so that he may proceed with his Quest without the fear of facing possible punishment for the killing of what could be seen as a symbol of the Kongzem and the royal family.
