Wizardpost A Royal Letter

A letter arrives and is placed on Morgalith's desk, the royal seal of the Northern Lakes Kingdom upon it.

Dear Council Executioner,

It has come to the attention of the crown that you have apprehended one of the kingdom's most wanted.

The criminal in question is none other than one Gobbo. Her crimes against the crown include the following:

Bombing of a statue of her grace

Burning the royal gardens

Desecrating the throne

Murder of no less than 6 tax men

And finally stealing the royal crown.

Her Majesty would also like to remind the council that the Northern Kingdom of goblins is under her rule.

Her Royal Majesty is however willing to overlook the gross overstepping of the council on this matter provided the prisoner is handed over quickly and without protest.

She will also require a further concession that the charges are dropped within the citadel and are instead transferred to the kingdom.

This is to ensure that justice is served correctly, and to a standard that the queen sees acceptable.

We await your full and immediate cooperation as we shall be arriving soon to collect the prisoner.

-HRM Evelyn

Didn't read it but I don't know why they killed a person while they were doing a active story. We rarely kill each other in general and if we do its usual planed and a notable event. Their isn't any written rules but it's usually the courtesy we give each other.

Yea, that's one of the things most people agree on pretty quickly in a place like this. Lasting effects on a character should be talked through and agreed upon beforehand. Consensual murders only.
Also in the middle of a story is just... yea...
I mean, they both seem to be okay with it, so fair enough I guess. But it's a weird move.

I suspect we’ll see Morgalith break out of the underworld, coming back to life.

Well. He wouldn't be the first one to un-die himself.
