Trial Of C. Wolkoff (3)
From Atlantic Roleplay Wiki
Title: Trial of C. Wolkoff [3]
Author: Velika Ne'Sveti
Turning to her servant, Velika asked for her testimony.
“I murdered this woman, da, but I had to. She threatens the wolves in Caina. The wolves come with the Ne’Sveti family. They represent their strength, their ancient bloodline. They protect them; they share their blood. Some of them are Ne’Sveti. To kill these wolves is to kill my family. I protect my family; I kill the witch before she kills the wolves.”
With that Cerenje bowed her head before her mistress and awaited her sentencing. Velika sighed. Cerenje was quite right. Kelila had called for a death warrant on a large number of the Ne’Sveti family with her ban on wolves. But the Vice-Mayor did not know that the Ne’Sveti family, and therefore Cainan citizens, counted many lycanthropes among their number. She addressed the court as Ssin’urn opened her mouth to protest.
“While it is true that you were only protecting my family with this act, Cerenje, the Vice-Mayor knew not that she threatened us.”
Ssin’urn nodded her agreement.
“Because of this, I sentence you to immediate death at the hands of the drow elf.”
Velika turned to Ssin’urn and frowned. “Make it a quick death.”
Cerenje stood and faced the drow, never wavering from her mistress’s orders. Within seconds, the old woman lie crumpled on the floor and a look of satisfaction graced the drow woman’s face. She nodded briefly to the Magistrate who remained staring at her hands, folded in her lap.
A chuckle could be heard from the back of the courthouse, as GreyPawn found irony in the trial and the sentence. With a glower, Velika slammed her hand on the table, bringing the court to a close, and stalked to her office.
