With the last of the 13 Dukes entering the chamber, the building was sealed as per written law. His Majesty King Gregor Eisenhorn welcomed the Dukes and Duchesses and made remarks about no witnesses being present, along with any documentation evidence. The council, after small talk began with the issue of Baran “Bucky” Buchaneon,


Duchess Crosspick and Attwater suddenly speak up during the meeting to claim witnesses were delivered, but were held up outside the courthouse.


The King mentions that a specific time was given, and no one showed up. Much of the Dukes and Duchesses argue in what cannot be recorded here due to foul language.


Eventually conflict is heard outside the building. Rumors had gone around of a mass assassination attempt on the lives of the 13. Could Raash have sent these men?


There is a sudden slam at the front door. It is believe the building is being sieged and when the door slams open, a finely dressed woman rushes in with documentation of evidence. Ser Morgan is behind her kneeling, apologizing for this oversight and vows to enact punishment for the door being open by having Oliver take her life outside the chambers. Ser Morgan also takes his life, for allowing someone through the chamber doors.


After more arguments it is decided that the council will reconvene on Sunday morning, thus allowing witnesses to make their way into the building.


When the council chamber has reconvened, the list of witnesses include:

Lady FallingStar under Maher Koshinari

Silp, Page of Jocelyn Raash

Earth Guild representative Eric Marsters

Solar Vassal of the Celestial Guild

Anto Koshinari

Jonah Stone, former Vizier, in chains.

Avacyn, court handmaiden


All have been registered, along with documentation to be presented at the time of discussion. The 13 will now discuss the future of former Duke Bucky on whether his crimes warrant Obliteration or Exile from Wayside.
