[Haengemie] Thank you, Cid. You have been called to testify in this matter, please state the pertinant facts to the jury.
[Haengemie] Cid, you have 90 seconds to speak.
[Cid] Foxweir..
[Cid] Gee, Wiz, I'm running from the law and I'm in court, and nothin's happening...
[Cid] First of all, Lilit is a repeat offender...
[Cid] ...this is not the first time she's done this...
[Cid] ...she >>has<< a record in court...
[Cid] ...we have loads of witnesses to prove that she did...
[Cid] ....and she won't stop....
[Cid] ....and I don't think we should bother the court's time by calling more witnesses...
[Cid] I can vouch for Lilit's mistreating of the Undine, I saw it with my own eyes, I did!
[Haengemie] 10 seconds remaining, Please finish up, or say "done"...
[Cid] BEER!
[Cid] BEER
[Cid] BEER!!
[Cid] done
[Haengemie] Thank you, Cid
[Haengemie] Lilit, you have 90 seconds to speak.
[Lilit] Jurors, the question in front of you is to what ends you wish to see this court used.
[Lilit] If you wish it to be used to for your fellow citizens to bemoan there own failings in combat...
[Lilit] Then you should heed Marines argument.
[Lilit] However, if you feel indivduals should take responsibility for their own actions...
[Lilit] And not try to blame ME for what comes to them when they go to knowingly dangerous places...
[Lilit] You should dismiss this charge.
[Lilit] My rite is not done with the intent of causing harm...
[Lilit] ...it is those who knowingly put themselves in harms way that causes this.
[Lilit] I am being persecuted for my beliefs, which frighten small minds like Marine's.
[Lilit] I can only hope you have a greater capacity for understanding and personal freedom than he.
[Lilit] done
[Haengemie] Thank you, Lilit
[Haengemie] Marine, you have 120 seconds to speak.
[Marine] uhm
[Marine] as to me taking her to court for dying in the undine
[Marine] that is not true
[Marine] i did not die
[Marine] i was helping other poor people who can not take on zombies
[Marine] and sala was helping
[Marine] untill he to fell
[Marine] i think
[Marine] that lilit should find some other practice
[Marine] that is less harmfull to all exiles
[Marine] witness: noivad
[Haengemie] Thank you, Marine
[Haengemie] Noivad, please approach the witness railing, to the Northeast of the jury box. You have 15 seconds.
[Haengemie] Thank you, Noivad. You have been called to testify in this matter, please state the pertinant facts to the jury.
[Haengemie] Noivad, you have 120 seconds to speak.
[Noivad] your honor, people of puddleby. less than aweek ago I stood before you asking that you convict Lilit on nthe same charge,
[Noivad] your honor, people of puddleby. less than aweek ago I stood before you asking that you convict Lilit on nthe same charge,
[Noivad] and luckily you agreed that her right to hold religious rites
[Noivad] were violating other's right to live peacable and putting others at undue peril above and beyond regular dangers we face.
[Noivad] at undue peril above and beyond regular dangers we face.
[Noivad] I again ask you to convict this two time offender.
[Noivad] She knows this action is considered a crime and we as a people have decided it is.
[Noivad] Yet she refuses to bow to the will of tyhe people and find another place
[Noivad] or way to practice her religion without harming others
[Noivad] so I ask you afgain
[Noivad] please impose the maximum penalty allowed
[Noivad] and send her aclear message
[Noivad] done
[Haengemie] Thank you, Noivad
[Haengemie] Lilit, you have 120 seconds to speak.
[Lilit] If you turn in a guilty verdict today...
[Lilit] You sink to the level of the insane tyrant who put you here in the first place!
[Lilit] Is that what you wish to do? Punish those with different, unpopular beliefs?
[Lilit] It is not as if I have tried to protect people from harm, and make my intentions understood.
[Lilit] Noivad even calls to mind the previous time that I was held innocent of the same charges!
[Lilit] Noivad wishes me to bow to HIS will, and the few other thugs who do not like those who think different from them.
[Lilit] ...different from them.
[Lilit] The issue here is freedom, and personal resonsibility.
[Lilit] A guilty verdict goes against those principles.
[Lilit] I hope you will consider these values dear, and declare me innocent of criminal action.
[Lilit] Thank you.
[Lilit] done
[Haengemie] Thank you, Lilit
