Cyra thinks for a bit in the intervening silence. Eventually, she closes her book with a sharp snap, standing upright, and looking over the crowd gathered.
"Actually, I have more to add. Kalameet, I have observed you for a deal of time, and the period I have allotted to tolerating your presence has come to it's close. I shall expose this farce debate here and now, before you cause more instability."
She speaks aloud to the audience. Her voice is magnified several times by illusion magic, and her tone shifts to one of dire importance.
"Lliran, Lauriran, People of Haelun'or, there is something that you must know. The Medi'ir on the podium today, Kalameet Izalith, is not as he seems. In fact, I could safely call him the most dire threat to our purity to stand within our walls in recent memory. His entire life has been one of corruption and taint- taint that today he would try to bring upon our venerable Cihi, accompanied by Orenian political tricks, and slanderous lies.
Kalameet is no recent arrival to Atheria, as many of you may know. Before his time here, he led a dark past, living his life amongst necromancers, and blood mages. He himself is indeed a user of Shade Magic, the most corrupting of all dark magic, that literally turns the mind into a thing of Iblees. His taint not only brings rage, and madness to his own mind, but at merely a whim he is easily capable of spreading this same, dark disease to any member of our city. Even worse, to this day he maintains strong ties with dark mages outside the city, and intends to use these connections to set our venerable city onto a path of war. Up until now, out of respect for Seth's wishes, I have kept this matter private and he can attest to this. We wished his punishment and potential banishment could be discussed properly with Okarir'tir Asul'athri. However, in light of the danger he now presents, I can hold my tongue no longer."
Cyra would shift her gaze to Kalameet. Her voice lowers, into a tone that comes as close to distaste as Cyra has ever been.
"I have long predicted your attempts to gain power within this Cihi, Kalameet. It does not take a mental mage to realize how. Your tactics mimic the Oren nobles that you served, hand and foot, before your arrival here. The deplorable politics employed outside these mighty walls will not work within our Venerable Cihi, Kalameet. I suggest you try elsewhere."
Cyra exhales, and the magic magnifying her voice slowly fades. She closes her eyes, and sits down, finding that at last, she has said enough.
"The floor is yours, Sohaer."
