[Ended]Trial: Harmonium versus Kelth

[*Mausman]

*Kelth inclines his head respectfully at both Cratten and Judge*

Then I choose a Guvner, yer 'onor...as tae shoow I alloow someone nae near tae me tae be involved in me defense...

*Kelth advances to the witness stand, his head lifted, determination in his movements, awaiting the questions to be asked*

[*Pashan01]

Piri chatters quietly to herself, focused on the silly magical thing in all of that...." ...a spell ta alter memories.?" I knows how ta block em, make em ferget...hmm..I gots to be learnin me that one....*flits off Naya's shoulder brushes over her head to the other shoulder*

Naya'il, meanwhile is concentrating hard on the case, nods to herself hearing Kelth's plea and speech, sends him a smile of encouragement.

*Sallaria walks in and takes a seat alone, crossing her arms over her chest with her usual icy glare on her face. She looks around the room and nods to those she knows then looks to Kelth, as if studying him a bit to try and determine how he is holding up.*

[*Mr_Otyugh]

*Judge Orneth nods and speaks out in this point..*

"One of the Guvner Factotums will represent Kelth McEwan on his behalf as assistant defendant. Factotum Potik will step forth when time comes."

"Prosecution may proceed."

*Judge gestures Cratten to go on*

*Cratten nods and then walks right by the Witness stand next to Kelth and starts to ask questions ((I'll ask them all same time to save time of bouncing the words for hours-days))*

"Alright, at your opening statement ye said that ye entered Marius' room, and inside there was large quantity of Alchemist Fires, yes? In what manner did ye enter the room? I have looked through the third Sensory Stone, but the memory seemed to start when everyone were already in the room, this might be "conveniently" damaged evidence after all."


"Was there any words traded between the two of ye, or ye only attacked him in yer rage? Now before ye get any wrong ideas, I will assume this Marius got what he deserved, but this Trial is not of what he did, but what ye did. Like earlier, I witnessed part of the conversation at least and do not deny this Marius' clearly being reason for the explosion, but ye might've provoked him into such."


"Ye had a room filled with explosives, perhaps ye did not realise it by that time, but what were ye trying to achieve? by getting in there and assaulting a cutter with upper hand in such "hopeless" situation that might've ended better in more delicate handling manner. Didn't yer reason warn ye of likely consequences of such action?"

*Cratten Erroc is clearly comfortable with acting and making strong gestures infront the public to bring emphasis to his words as if this was a stage for him and he was acting in it*

[*Mausman]

*Kelth inclines his head respectfully, slowly standing up to speak*

After listenin'tae tha final six doors, yer 'onor...I 'eard a lot of noise...ramblin' o' pottery if ye will....so I glanced under tha door..which showed me movement o' feet only...

I knocked on tha door...fer all I knew, I might 'ave been at wrong door...but tae me suspicion, all soounds stopped...an' after quite some time...I decided tae barge intae tha door, I got nae reason tae lie aboout tha'


I was sincerely baffled tae find 'im in a room, cluttered wiv thoousands o' alchemist fires...an' indeed we exchanged words, yer 'onor...he threatened tae blow us all up an' this invoked tha desire tae stop him...wiv 'is finger, ready tae cast in me point o' view...I felt provoked an' went fer 'im, I told him t'would end -then-

See, yer 'onor....seeing wha' this man did allready...an' then, havin' 'is room filled wiv explosives...had me assume 'e was plannin' somethin' wiv it all along, in this case..I mean...WHO keeps thoousands o' alchemist fire's in an inn room? ...since I got broought back from tha dead, t'is easy tae point tha finger at -me-
But wiv all me reason, I soought tae stop 'im from doin' somethin' 'orrible....an' aye....I -also- attacked wiv personal anger.....both motivators were present in me...

tha situation seemed in me advantage yer 'onor....I...was confident I would be able tae disable 'im b'fer 'e could manage 'is spell...sadly....this was nae tha case...an' like I said....this still weighs doown upon me till this very day...

*he had kept his gaze upon both Judge, crowd, jury and Cratten, speaking in a calm manner, respectfully and determined*

[*cdnspr]

The observant may notice a dark-haired man seated on a bench near the rear of the room that was, until only moments before, clear. He watches the trial with interest, though before long the seat is again unoccupied. Of the man who sat there, there is no trace.

[*Gitrodamus]

*Roland stands outside the courthouse for a time, most likely pondering whether to go inside or not. After a while, he heads back to the prison's premices*

[*Reptiller]

Many Forms handed his Staff of Blasting to the guard.People witness he was dressed in red and black robes with a cloak and was wearing a mage's hat.


The alchemist takes a seat close enough to see the accused,wondering
how much alchemist fire was used to blow the tavern up . . .

[*Zadara]

The normally cheery Jach Sensbane has an unusual expression of concern on his face as he enters the courtroom. Although he has no chivs on hand, he hands his trademark torch over to the guards as he enters.

He gives a slight nod of reassurance to Kelth, Naya'il, and Sondaal before he goes and takes a seat adjacent to Sondaal.

As he sits and quietly waits for the proceedings, his mind mulls over the events that transpired to come to this.

[*Mr_Otyugh]

*Cratten Erroc enters the Courtroom in his blue jacket without any chivs or armor parts, walks up to the Defendant offering his hand for shaking, slight smile on his face and simply states*

“Good luck cutter.”

*after this he withdraws to the Prosecution side*
