Best use of a commoner he had ever known.   At least Crues Dree did not survive the night.  Mistanna killed him with the magic she unleashed.  Magic bodyguards are expensive but often well worth it.Nearing his home within the city he felt confident and safe.  Still, he did not see Mistanna anywhere.  Was she invisible and playing games with him again?  She was a bit wild that way.  This was his last thought as three thrown knives strike him then disappears magically.This is how the feud began.On the next day, members of each family were confronted by templars about rumored ills against the city and state.  Templars and city psions did mandatory mind readings.  In each case, more than possible state conspiracies were pulled from their exposed thoughts and memories.  Each family found mysterious thievery occurring within their homes and businesses.  But there were no more deaths.Each family knew that to kill a member of the opposite family was to invite their uncontrolled wraith.  It was the unwritten rule between warring families.  Accidents always did happen but it was just that- accidents.This is why when the Dree family came home from a mandatory templar meeting, they were so shocked then outraged.  Nothing like this had ever been heard of or foreseen.12 guards, 2 psionic guardians and three noble family members too young to go to the meeting were slaughtered.  Torn and cut up and spread throughout the home.  In blood was written “Freedom”.Thus the first noble war ever began in the city-state of Nibenay, during the Starlight Festival.</blockquote>
