    ... hearing tonight.” Amshi scratched his head, smiling wryly he nodded. Taping him on the shoulder Veritas replied, “Thanks for helping me out buddy.” Taking Areyoon out he tested his wagon’s movement. For the remainder of the day he made adjusted his wagon. Content he dropped off Areyoon along with the wagon at the barn while Rus and him departed for his final victory. Gathering with Matt and Sòlana he faced Judge Jeudy. People he had sign the petition filled the room. Looking around he found no sign of Agnês nor her knights. Maybe she had something to do reguarding the church he thought. Following the similar process of greeting Prince Tookhanpley the hearing began. “It has come to my attention that they might have been some foul plays involved in gathering these signatures,” the judge announced. “Thus if these allegations are false you wouldn’t mind me inquiring myself adventurer Veritas.” Brimmed with confidence he rose, “No sir these good people signed this paper willingly.
