Antonius,

The Baalzadeen was not present before your attack, so Jago was not
technically breaking the law until you attacked him; your excuse is
post-factum. You have slain an innocent; a noncombatant at the time. He
was not an enemy of Shallam, so your only justification is that he is of
the Quisalis Mark. Shallam will probably overlook this detail, as he is
Mhaldorian; I know that spilt Shallamese blood within the walls of
Mhaldor would raise about as much question as a humgii passing gas.

What we must all embrace now is the ideals of Shallam cusping the ideals
of Mhaldor. Intruders must be slain; it matters not if they have
personally affected the city or not, only from which city they hail. I
must tip my hat to you, Antonius. You are becoming more like us every
day. Perhaps you will join the ranks of the Elite some day.

I ask the Jewel of the East not punish her young warrior, as he is
displaying signs of strength: "The body must be made stronger through
combat," "Cruelty - the application of pain - is the method by which one
weeds out the weak and feeble-minded from the population." Acknowledge
his rise to power, and embrace the Seven Truths of Lord Sartan.

As for Jago, he has broken a city law in Mhaldor, and is being dealt
with accordingly. Weakness shall never be tolerated. Isn't that right,
Antonius?
