Rhymin Stimin; Pissing Crone

Attempt to have the Warden of New Dunwarren killed, and you will be killed in turn.

Attempt to promote anarchy through deception and misinformation, and you will be destroyed.

Warden Drin is not the ruler of New Dunwarren, and never has been. I don't expect you to read this, or even give a damn about what I am writing, but this is a salve to my conscience should you or one of your deluded hired swords decide to make good on the offer of bounty.

Justice is the province of Lord Tyr of the Triad, and the Temple of the Triad is in New Dunwarren. If we meet you'll soon find that out, though.

[A letter is left at the Siren, The Stand, The Crone, and one is sent up the New Dunwarren Lift]

Dearest Mister Ahost! What is it of him you'll miss the most?

His blonde and gold locks? The pompous way he tahks?

Tyr is a fine deity in deed But an annoy halfling t'is not what you need.

The Triad should rule above that lan', And not some pompous little half man.

Your faith is strong, Though your politics wrong

Admirable indeed, But your threats, I don't need.

The foolish Wardhin is all that I seek, He walks about upper, treating others meek.

Let us call this humility, To be dispensed Post-Mortis-ility.

For the way only some learn, is when the blade is turn.

Stop not the justice, T'is not anarchy I seek, But a simple rambunctious hin's blood to leak.

I trust the letter finds you most well, For Tyr is a Deity I find most swell, However should you stop the fate that Drin has befell.

[the sloppy handwriting grows visibly angry, jagged edges and hardly pressed into the letter]

Why then, Dearest Ahest, you'll join him in hell.

The blood of one is a small price to pay for the lives of many to be well.

This Halfrat looks down on citizens, Councilors, watchmen alikes, As you said, he does what he likes.

Not rule, yet -acts- though he has some semblance of power, Should a public apology be issued to the city of sanctuary and he leaves the city of Upper and thus steps down from his position,

then I too would be forced to put my offer into Submission.

The Warden acts with the support of the Temple, and I have yet to witness or be told of him acting against its wishes.

In any case - To offer a bounty on the Warden was a mistake, but offering a bounty on Rabbit was signing a very dangerous thing indeed. I will find you, and you will be brought to justice. Assassination is unjust, and criminal. Seeking to hamper the actions of the Temple of the Triad is unjust, as Tyr is by definition the Even-Handed.

If you truly have respect for Him, then you will remove the bounties. Otherwise, I will not relent until I have found you and determined the severity of your guilt and sin.

Of course, you could always have just sent a letter to the Temple explaining your apparent quarrel with the Warden. There is always a right way to do things, and I do not believe you beyond redemption. Yet.

Justicar Avhost

Master Ahest,

I Must Protest,

for you see, These Bounty's Three,

Are truly just indeed. The watch places bounties on those who harm those in need The Elf is a fool, for the sake of Elven-kind, he must be pig-feed.

The Halfling Rabbit, Well she's a nuisence, and a dirty fruit thrower, dag nabbit. For the sake of peace and quiet and cleanliness, this is justice as many would have-it.

This Halfling is not of Tyr, So Ahest my dear, you've little to Fear For my wrath, you see, there is a code to Adhere.

So long as you do not breach it, you and your temple are fine. My quarrel is with the Elf and Half-Kine. So please, continue in your lord's name to shine.

But do not weep for these three From me, they'll find no sympathy.

Rhymin' Simin the Bardistic Gob-lin

Simply put- Harm those under the protection of the Temple of the Triad, and you will die. I've little time and even less patience for those who would seek to enforce their own codes upon others without proper divine guidance.

We'll meet soon enough, most likely. I think you'll find that the wrath of a Justicar is not easily escaped from; I have warned you about the consequences of refusing to remove these notices.

Time for you to face them.
