I miss the old Ronerawth government. When they wanted to threaten you, they took you out to the desert and threatened to have you die of thirst and heat. It was at least bright and welcoming, like "Well they are threatening my life but at least I'm getting some sun". Now its all dark rooms with one harsh light and no furniture, they still do this (or so I've heard since I'm effectively exiled, but not for this bit of dumbery something later, that I actually did do). The two men who were with me as I transitioned from my failed cell trap to the dark room they would interegate me in were obviously members of the Royal guard, as denoted by their fancy pistols and purple clothing. It told me I was in something serious as opposed to the times I've been locked up for hilarity sake by just regular peons. I wasn't shackled, so apparently the Ronerawth government had heard of my magical issues and no longer considered me much of a threat (it was my ace in the hole for the situation). I was placed on a chair unchained or restrained at all, but the implication was I should remain seated.
"Ok lets just skip to the part where you threaten me with made up charges and request I do something I don't want to do, but will agree to, to avoid some action to innocent people." As you've read before this wasn't my first go round.
"Excuse me?" The lead talker, thinner than his friend, obviously the "brains" of their group.
"You can't possibly expect me to believe that you think I'm involved in whatever treasonous whatever you've drummed up, I've been out of the country for months, I just got back!"
"And you're known as a planner, someone who plots things out in advance Lorentino." Known by whom? I have no idea, because most of the time the only thing I plot out in advance is failure, witness my attempt to kill Morley over time, clearly already by this point I HAD FAILED!
"Ok if you don't want me to do something for you, what the hell is this all about?"
"We want to know the other conspirators, you are set to be executed anyway Lorentino, but do the country a favor and let us know who else was involved." How pleasant, the you're already dead, kill some other people on the way out.
"Right of course, method of execution?"
"Public hanging."
"Well I got some advice for you guys, make sure the rope is strong and tight." And at that point I refused to cooperate, because screw burning other people not involved in this, though I had to wonder if that idiot prince had actually gotten involved in treason. It didn't matter to my captors, they marched me from interogation back to my cell and I awaited my "execution". I put that in quotes because again I had my magic again and these idiots were about to try and hang me when I'm a fire magic user, thats idiotic, but as it turns out for me, beneficial! Since I'm clearly still alive I made it away, and next entry I'll enthrall you with my brilliance, because as always I'm amazing.
