As of late, a Hin by the name of Saroki has been campaigning against me.
She accuses me of slavery, cruelty, injust punishment.
She recounts how she was whipped by my hand.
Here I answer publicly to the accusations.
During my Mercenary Patrol, more than seven-darks ago, I entered the crone and heard the said saroki and three men at a table, discussing how they were going to kill the giant who resides in Lower. Cyrus and all the men at the inn at that time heard the same.
Since at the time, I was on duty, it was natural for me to approach the group and inquire as to what was going on.
After insults and a hostile reaction, Saroki blatantly declared her intention to kill the giant. I warned her of the implication of her actions. The Goblins once lost their giant previously, and retaliated by using explosives to kill many people.
She ignored the warning, and went on to claim she would slaughter all the goblin tribe, and insulted me again.
After that, I administered Five whip lashes as punishment for the crime of planning mass murder. It must be noted that the Golden Mercenaries had the authority to do so. I have noticed that ignorance about the true state of Lower is widespread The laws of Upper sanctuary don't apply in Lower. The watch doesn't enforce the law in Lower. The Golden Mercenaries did have the right to arrest and sentence at the time of the crime.
Saroki then began her campaign of public slander. She sent three heavily built men, enchanted beyond belief to murder me in the town hall. The presence of the watchmen made them reconsider.
Since, she has repeatedly harrassed me. I have not raised a finger against her.
But now I am outraged. A friend of her's impersonated a Civil Defence member, and threatened to arrest me. I was in company of Private Sannen when Saroki, the said friend and another began insulting us. Private Sannen was deeply insulted, and so was I.
I feel outraged that such people are allowed to slander good names such as the Private's in total impunity.
That is the answer to my accusations. Whatever you heard from Saroki and her friends are lies.
