"I did not wave a gun at you, and I never threatened you," states Jacob levelly. "What's more, I was not convinced--and I am still not, in all honesty--that you are what you claim to be. In my personal experience, the FBI does not send two men teams to investigate motel rooms with no apparent...

"Not so fast," announces Jacob, watching 'Crockett' try to pull his weight. You want to play the BS game? Fine, but when you do the better BSer wins. "Sir, I don't know what these men have told you, but I think they're here on false circumstances. They may be FBI agents who've found a body...

Fantastic. Undercut by the authorities. God bless the sentimental--so worried about a woman crying, they'll throw her to the wolves to stop her. Jacob glances at Brown coldly, and speaks to him a confidential whisper. "Keep an eye on the girl, and don't let anyone take her. Corruption has...

Awaking from last night's sleep, Fevre smiles to himself as he reads Alessa's note, and then pens a reply. To my dear cousin, I found your reply delightful in its manner, and in its errors. It is charming that one so devious (a quality I hold a virtue) can be so naive. While I will follow...

Fevre writes a letter to Liem. To Liem, of House Leo, Regardless of your stance on this matter, I feel that this council must arrive with some backing of our own, or we will have no true authority in this matter. If you could request some troops from your house, it would aid us. My thanks...

Anguis heads to his quarters. His original plan was to get some much needed sleep, but the discussion had raised his choler, and made rest impossible. Finding Julius's letter, he decides to busy himself with writing a reply, and then writing to his cousin, and the Bishop. Julius: To Lord...

"Oh, not all of us," says Anguis with a thin smile. "Some of us fought on the side of right."

Anguis smiles subtly and sarcastically at Eimhin. "You show a most worthy trust in your superiors, sirrah, to think they cannot tell the difference between dwarfs staging a revolt, and dwarfs making a social call." His smile twists into a frown. "But I must make my mind clear. As I have...

Deacon Fevre glances up wearily at Sarrom. "The Hand of Orr guides all our affairs, woodsman, a fact that only a fool seeks to deny. And as I know my Creator liveth, I shall invoke His Wisdom and Power, and trust in His Ways, that He may take me on my death, and keep me in His loving embrace...

Anguis eyes the Corona Austrina member with just an edge of contempt. "Tell me, sirrah, when you heard they had stormed the barracks, did you imagine them gaily dancing up to the gates while strewing flowers? When you heard they'd taken the Captain's Quarters, did you imagine they did this to...

OOC: I was just setting it up... ;) Alan bleeds some more. (-2 hp) Caradoc rushes forward and strikes at the goblin. With a lucky strike, he skewers the wizard through with his blade. (20 +2/19+2=Crit. 13 points of damage.) Graevel manages to join him striking at the goblin. His blow is...

Obeah Swiftwing gives a sad sigh. "I'm afraid arrogance is often wed to wickedness, a coupling both unpleasant and dangerous." He shakes his head. "And besides, Vaaldusk almost succeeded--indeed, there are those who worship him and hold that he did not die in his mad attempt at Godhood, but...

"These dwarfs stepped outside our protection when they took up arms, expelled national troops, took an officer captive, and barricaded a street!" declaims Deacon Fevre hotly. "These are not people coming to court with a complaint! They are people up in arms against legitimate authority! I...

Obeah Swiftwing glances at the group and then bids them to follow him. "This way--this way--now then--the War of Twin Darks came asa thief in the night. After two awesome wars, the Eldari finally saw evil vanquished. But evil sprouts eternal..." He leads the group out of his tent to a...

Anguis turns to him. "If they had legitimate grievances, than we will deal with them, but I think they passed beyond being mere petitioners of the House's mercy when they started rioting in the streets." He clenches his fist. "If a man is robbed, he has a right to have the thieves brought to...

Anguis turns to the Corona Austria member. "And if we deal with them--do as they say--grant them their demands--we send a message that we are willing to forgive rebellion against the state. That terror and violence against the government are legitimate forms of negotiation. Am I alone in...

After his cousin speaks, Anguis glances at Liem, his eyes narrowing. "Also, sirrah, I should point out that when Bishop Scrope writes letters, the heaven's quail, the sea's rage, and the sun's thrown out of joint. Or at least, so runs the Bishop's opinion, which as his man, I am honorbound to...

A handsome young man dressed in red clerical robes enters the room. The combination of his robes and his dark red hair bring thoughts of foxes to those who see him--something his rather thin face only strengthens. "Ahh! Pardon all! Please excuse my lateness! Bishop Scrope had me writing...

Hmmm... The thing is, Anguis isn't out of favor with House Serpens--more politely moved to the side to pursue his ambitions elsewhere. How about this--Anguis's father needed to make a politically advantageous marriage, which Anguis would be an embarassment to, and so his father sent him to...
