Bounty

Post by Dragonlord Atarka »

To any interested party,

Due to dire insults upon the Atarkan clan, the illustrious Sardon would like to offer 75 gold pieces for the head of the outlaw elfess Aswe. Since she is not a citizen of any realm and a wanted criminal in most of them this can be considered perfectly legal for anyone who has such concerns. Until the event that she joins one of the realms again if she would even be accepted.

Payment will be received only upon delivery of the elfess' head. It should be noted that she is an elfess with green hair. The contract shall exist until such a time as she gets legal protection if she ever does again.

The Atarka clan shall not be insulted in such a vile manner as it has been done this day.

People of Illarion,

let it be known, that Cadomyr will not tolerate violence against Aswe on Cadomyrian soil. As long as she resides in our realm as a guest, nobody will harm her on Cadomyrian ground without being charged for their actions. No bounty will change the fact that Cadomyr is not some outlaw place where people can be slain without the decision of the noble court.

For now, this protection will last until Aswe is sentenced in a fair trial in Runewick for what she allegedly did in her time there. Since she is not a wanted criminal in Cadomyr, however, no actions shall be taken against her in Cadomyr.

It is not up to me to decide this, but I hereby ask the Runewickian rangers to at least assure her a safe passage to the place of her trial, when the day comes.

It has been decided that the contract will be on hold until the end of Aswe's trial,

It does beg the question though- Why would the Countess protect her own supposed rapist? The Countess would freely lie and continue to slander all the while refusing any resolution of her incendiary attempts at provocation. She refuses to duel or send forth a champion to honor her words. Instead she puts such a massive workload on a single man, poor Horatio. The Sardon does wonder at the Queen's ability to choose her nobles and complete lack of care of her own reputation allowing such ignoble and dishonorable people to continue to lie, slander, and protect criminals in her name.

Are Cadomyrian customs a joke? Perhaps an appeal should be made to the Queen on these matters.
