⚖️ Legal & Scribe Caste Activities

• Mock Trial Conducted: A mock trial regarding a charge of Theft (accepting a collared slave without the owner's consent) was held, presided over by Magistrate Kati Evans (09:20–11:51).

  • Advocates: Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (Prosecution) and Tyan Cabot (Defense).

  • Core Dispute: Whether Wayne Rooney committed theft by accepting a slave (Rio Ferdinand's property) who approached him in distress and claimed her owner was dead.

  • Magistrate's Ruling (Educational): Kati ruled that, based on the incomplete evidence presented, she would not find or imprison Mr. Rooney (11:46). However, she used the session as a teaching opportunity, criticizing both sides for failing to address crucial Gorean legal details like jurisdiction ("WHERE") and providing verified documentation in the first 30 minutes (11:34-11:42).

• Scribe Communication: Kati received the Scribe Caste Meeting Minutes and distributed a document regarding the review of documents before filing (03:27, 17:19).

• Slave Trial/Dismissal: Kati formally dismissed a slave girl named Marie (individual #18), concluding she lacked the basic skills and reliability required to serve as her personal slave and directed her to the kennel for further training (05:40).

• New Resident Processing: Kati received applications from new residents, including Keiko Yamada, and processed forms for multiple others (15:07).

⚠️ Security, Personnel & Threats

• Blackwatch Threat/Tension: A high level of security concern arose after John Savage reported that the mercenary group Blackwatch was seen prowling in the tavern. John, who is hired by Ubar Caine to protect Ubara Muse, believes this confirms a prior threat of kidnap against Muse, possibly originating from Turmus (12:37-12:38).

  • Muse's Response: Muse downplayed the severity of a previous visitor who threatened the city ("idiot ravings") but turned her attention to the Blackwatch threat, demanding to know if they were still present.

  • Amyr's Stance: Amyr, a massive Jarl and self-proclaimed guardian of the city (using voice-to-text due to injury), declared his intention to protect the city and Muse, stating that no one, including Amyr himself, can claim the city unless they can protect it (13:25).

• Slave Run Game: A city-wide Slave Run game (a variant of tag/capture the flag) was held, with a time limit of 5 minutes for slaves to hide. Finn Grayheart was the Champion Chaser and Alula was the Champion of the Chase (17:01).
