We have a problem regarding our public service. Let me explain in simple words a foreigner can understand. Since we are part of the property of the city-state of Viennar, we follow viennaric law. Small offences by female slaves and foreigners unable or unwilling to pay are punished with different sorts of charitable work. From plowing the fields to wood cutting to building houses and most importantly,public stress relief. In this town we cannot afford too many guards to watch over the convicts, so we introduced only two places for nearly everything. on the Main market, there was made some space for convicts and those seeking their service in various things, albeit mostly stress relive is offered there. The other location is between this city, and the nearby village of Outlog. Convicts there are scouted on a day by day basis for various tasks. <br/><br/>Now we've found 4 convicts dead and raped in this location - they were apparently not scouted, and supposedly waited until the late evening,the end of their shift, where their absence got noticed. Their bodies were found later on various lonely locations.Secretly, you will be sent there to investigate the disappearance of those poor souls.Foremost this court will find you guilty, and sentence you to two weeks of public service at the concentration point near Outlog. To prevent you from being picked, we will label you rebellious, and put you onto a special pillory of shame a bit apart from the rest of the convicted. You won't be restrained for real though, and a weapon of your choice will be hidden nearby, but we cannot afford to arouse suspicion by placing a separate guard near you to deter all interaction with the civilians.Yet, If someone interacts with you in a special way not described in the briefing provided after judgment is passed, you may resist and call out to the guards stationed at the location. But you should not display any hostile actions against any guard or civilian.the leading officer will be informed of your special status, but the common guards will not, to prevent information leak.This does mean, that they will treat you as a runaway the very moment you remove yourself from the pillory.However, if you do not resist, the captain should be able to clear you of the suspicion, this court at the very last will prove your innocence.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>
