By : Zahir

---

Case : Thromdrick v. Tuzic Mossbourne

Judge: Jorvin Starbreaker

Date: 9th of the Grand Harvest, Year 176 of the Second Age

Parties Present:

Accused: Thromdrick Irongut

Council: Darid Irongrinder

Accuser: Tuzic 

1. Tuzic's Testimony

Tuzic's testimony painted a vivid picture of his interactions with Lurdoic, conveying deep concern and regret as he witnessed his kin's descent into darkness. 

Despite earnest attempts to guide Lurdoic towards the teachings of the Brathmordakin, Tuzic faced resistance and defiance, grappling with the harrowing truth of Lurdoic's intentions.

2. Thromdrick's Defense

Thromdrick presented a confident and authoritative defense, adamantly refuting the accusations and challenging the integrity of Tuzic's claims. 

He meticulously recounted events, invoking the principles of the Brathmordakin to emphasize his dedication to dwarven tradition and morality, casting doubt on the validity of the accusations against him. 

As he is a respected member of dwarven society, it is  further complicating the narrative and casting doubt on the validity of the accusations against him.

3. Witness Testimonies

Hana Starbreaker corroborated Tuzic's testimony, providing first hand observations of Lurdoic's descent into darkness. 

However, Thromdrick remained steadfast in his defense, offering a rational explanation for his possession of the containment orb linked to Lurdoic's corruption. His calm demeanor and logical arguments cast doubt on the validity of the witness testimonies.

4. Expert Opinion 

Kazrin Starbreaker, an authority on voidal magic, offered valuable insights into the risks associated with Thromdrick's alleged teachings, guiding Jorvin towards a nuanced understanding of the case. King

5. King Grelu's Testimony

As the revered ruler of the dwarven kingdom, King Grelu's words carry immense weight in the throne room. His testimony served as a sobering reminder of the stakes involved in the trial, highlighting the profound implications of Thromdrick's alleged actions. King Grelu's unwavering commitment to dwarven values and traditions underscored the gravity of the situation, leaving a lasting impression on all who bear witness to his words.

6. The Decision

After deliberation, Jorvin rendered his judgment, ordering Thromdrick to pay a 500 mians fine to the Mossborn clan for gross negligence and conspiracy to subvert justice. He then posed a question to Thromdrick regarding the possibility of reversing the voidstalking ritual, to which Thromdrick responded negatively. Despite objections, Jorvin reiterated the necessity of ending voidistalking practices and urged Thromdrick to seek assistance for the reversal.

Bickering escalated as Darid Irongrinder raised concerns about the consequences of reversing the ritual. Jorvin defended his judgment as a mercy, aiming to prevent Thromdrick and others like him from becoming dangerous entities consumed by the void.

Thazzaer Grandaxe challenged the validity of the sentence, citing the need for adherence to the letter of the law. However, Jorvin asserted his authority to issue sentences as he deemed necessary, in consultation with the king.

Despite the objections, Jorvin reiterated the necessity of ending voidistalking practices and urged Thromdrick to seek assistance from fellow mages for the reversal. Thromdrick defiantly chose exile, condemning the kingdom's regulation of voidistalking.

Further bickering ensued, but nothing of that was scribed as the judgement was passed.

A full copy of the court’s transcript is available for purchase to the High Reckoners and the Grand Kingdom, a hefty fee will be charged to the parties.
