The Captain's trial...[/gm]The party is summoned to a public hearing, in the Tower of Justice. The Courtroom is on the fifth floor of an 8-floor, square, stone tower. In the southern part of the courtroom are 15-foot-wide double doors. The seating areas in the courtroom are spacious and comfortable. All those in attendance, who are not part of the prosecution or the defense, are seated in fenced "galleries" that are surrounded by 3 foot high courtesy fences. (This includes spectators, and the jury also.)The Judge (Sir Benton Fenwick) and the Lord Mayor (Margull) are sitting in tall, leather chairs, behind the judge's bench. According to Dyvers Law, although the judge's decision is final and binding, the mayor may sit next to him in an advisory capacity, as he is doing now. You all notice that Margull's face is entirely hidden by the huge, black cowl that hangs over his face. Margull's staff is laying length-wise on top of the judge's bench.The Prosecuting Attorney (Sir Leonard Faulk) sits to left side, behind a bench. The Defense Attorney (Sir Harold Vinnalos) and his two charges (The Captain, and The False Guard) sit to the right side, behind a bench.On the right wall, the panel of ten Citizen Jurors is seated in one of the fenced galleries.A Sergeant At Arms, and three City Watchmen guard the courtroom, two by the judge's bench, two by the doors.The window in this place, which is 15 feet wide, and 8 feet tall, is open-air, and drops 50 feet to the street below.Also present, in the right-side gallery, are 5 Citizen Observers, and Father Xavier.Lastly, the party occupies the left-side gallery.[gm]HERE IS THE EXACT LAYOUT:[ATTACH]82573[/ATTACH][/gm]MORE TO COME...</blockquote>
