Description
You, a neophyte legislator, had been chosen for a job you just knew would be impossible.

The day you were called was a day you had planned to be simple. A practice strife with an older troll, and maybe a quick ride on your beloved lusus. Do nothing until morning.

But they had other plans for you. Big plans. Deadly plans.

You weren't allowed to say anything as they explained your task. Success would give you a reputation. One that many legislators would love to have.

Track down Marquise Spinneret Mindfang. A pirate that was a rash on the government and had caused a new stain on The Grand Highblood's blood splattered wall. He was still agitated, though you could tell he was pleased that he had ended the life of a being one blood caste higher than him. It was a secret pleasure of many trolls. It sent a message out to the other seadwellers as well.

DON'T FUCK WITH THE GRAND HIGHBLOODLike you needed to be taught that again.

Back to the story. Marquise, you refused to call her by her title of "Mindfang", was easily charged to a blood-boiling amount of murders and deception. She had angered a superior and refused to stay off of the royal waters belonging to Her Imperious Condescension. You were pretty sure that this wouldn't be a problem had the late Orphaner Dualscar never rose from the dark depths of the sea. You were glad that you never had the displeasure of meeting him. The tizzy he had sent the purplebloods in was overwhelming.

The job was simple. Track her. Give her an unfair trial. Dispose of her. The Black Tyranny would be present. It was a moment you had been waiting for, and you practically snatched the small photo of Marquise as you ran towards your lusus.

You would never know that you would lose this.
You would never know that your case was doomed from the start.
You would NEVER know that the trial would be your first and last.
