An ultimatum.

[Bidukan]

*An unknown halfling quickly runs through Cadomyr's streets, leaving a medium size note in its public board*

To who it may concerns:

Having received a coward attack from your so called knight 'Exelous' before an official answer to my request of diplomacy, I warn you, the ones in charge of this town, if I receive another attack from anyone from Cadomyr I will take that as a war declaration and will proceed accordingly. I once again invite you to reach a diplomatic solution, for everybody's sake.

Bidukan
Knight of Malachín

[S'rrt]

~ A larger parchment has now been placed, partly covering the one placed by the halfling. ~

To the enemy of Cadomyr by the name of Bidukan,

It seems impossible that any Knight of Malachin would do what you did; deceive Cadomyr's highest members to leave themselves open and then plunge a blade into each of their bodies.

The Queen has received and rejected your proposal to pay off, with mere gold coins, your egregious attempt to murder three Cadomyrian knights and a then-Noble. You have been explained time and time again that you are to be judged by Queen Rosaline Edwards personally. Nothing less will do.

We are already at war and you are alone, unless anyone else wishes to be declared an enemy of Cadomyr by defending you. The only way to end this is for you to hand yourself in peacefully, otherwise we will continue to try and take you by force. It is not too late to gain what little Malachin's favor you can earn by accepting whichever punishment may come, doing penance, and reflecting on your choices.

Elderknight, Knight Court of Cadomyr
