Wallace nodded along as Thomas spoke, shooting glances back and forth between the speaker and the court secretary rapidly scrawling ink over record parchment at the end of the table. He knew, more than most, that the record contained some degree of fiction, but there were only so many accounts to be had when only one living man had been there. Regardless, he felt there wasn't much more to ask the man, not when he had all the answers on the table before him. Five Arcarti officers, Schelt, Hill, Bruner, Trinan, and Piper. Strange, that all of their stubs were being carried by one person, but no one was asking questions but him, yet. "Thank you Sir Thomas. Your account will be essential in determining the nature of this attack... and conducting our retaliation. Be at ease but remain before the court," Wallace said, and looked away from Thomas over to Jezin, who had made himself present as asked. "The last order of business for today. Your account of the night's events, Sir Jezin. What did [i]you[/i] see inside that chamber?" It had to be asked, for what credibility they had left. It would have been so much easier if a knight of the realm had made the arrest, but, as Wallace thought, he had done the things foreigners were apt to do. Hopefully, the differences in their accounts would be superficial enough to overlook.
