Calenthang cocks an eyebrow at Teleri's apprehensive behavior.
"No one faults you," he says laughing.

The interrogation over, Andreas quickly makes his way out of the cell. He looks both sickened by Applebottom's casual disregard for those he sent down the well, and uncomfortable with the discussion of the former mayor's fate.
"I would rather he was not killed, even after all he has done. To kill a man in cold blood like that..." He shifts awkwardly from standing on one foot to the other. "I'm glad I don't have to make that decision..."
He makes his way outside, and leans back against a wall to stare up at the sky.

She breaths in relief as they exit the cell and into open air and grimaces in agreement with Andreas. "Aye. Self defense is one thing. Execution?" she shook her head. "There are other ways to deal with such, ways that benifit everyone, including the guilty." she grinned, feeling a bit more like her old self. "Eventually anyway,"

Growing up under the crown laws, Ayden did not share the views of his companions concerning Applebottom's fate, but could not fault them for their personal beliefs.
"As you all know, the Wyvernspurs have always followed the rules of the crown, and as such, we have seen men who committed treason against the land sent to their death in the gallows. While there was no honor in their passing, none could argue about the effectiveness of the punishment to the masses who assembled to watch it, and to be honest, if Applebottom had committed such an act within Cormyr's borders, he would have already been sentenced by the crown and met his death. While I do respect your beliefs, the fact remains that Applebottom sought the possible destruction of a peaceful people, and for that the town council has every right to hang him, or give him over to Naamani, as is their right."

"Perhaps. But it is not quite as poeticly just as making him do hard labor for the rest of his life, helping others rebuild their lives and homes, in retribution for his destroying so many lives and wanting to destroy so many homes,"
She grinned at her fellow priest as they made their way towards Mayor Trond's house. "But as you say, ultimately his fate is no longer in our hands. We can only suggest a possible... Alternative,"

"Very sentient. And very opinionated," she grins lopsidedly. "Applebottom was right in saying that she has a strong will. But it seems she at least sees some sort of potential in me, otherwise she would have repelled me. And I'm afraid I didn't impress her much when she first contacted my mind. I was rather in shock at the time and babbled like an idiot," she said dryly.
"In any case, the lady Chasity has confirmed that she is not evil. And besides, I have heard that such swords do not willingly let anyone who does not at least share a... similar viewpoint bear them. That is, if an evil person picks up a item possessed by a good soul, there will be rather unpleasant consequences. And like-wise, vice-versa." she told him.

"Am intelligent sword? Now that is a find!" Andreas looks back down from the sky to Teleri's new blade, the enthusiastic curiosity that is becoming familiar to his friends clear in his eyes.
"Do you know it's name yet? It's history? What powers does it carry? This must explain it's muddled aura..." He mutters to himself as he walks around Teleri, examining the sword from every angle he can.

And you thought I was annoying. Teleri grins mentally at the sword. Now you have another person who says Can you do this and this and this....
"She told me her name is Princess Dror StormArmour. She died in battle, fighting beside her father and he imbued her soul in the sword," she told him, giving Andreas an abbreviated version of the swords history. "I don't have any idea as to what her powers may be. I suspect that she will reveil them gradually when she believes me ready."
She grins at the over eager mage. "Considering that she is made of mithril, Isuspect that she is really dangerous to certain evil outsiders and things like shapeshifters." Teleri shrugged. "I don't know for sure though,"
