After much deliberation and build-up [[Venaz]] is finally in [[Liscor]] and ready to start his judgement of [[Calruz]]. Calruz is ready to die, but Venaz has plans to take things slower.

Calruz is ready to die, but Venaz has plans to take things slower. The two gather with [[Bezale]] and talk primarily of home. They are joined by the [[Beriad of the Antinium|Beriad]] that Calruz has formed, Venaz's strategist friends, and [[Ceria Springwalker|Ceria]] as the three minotaurs talk and Venaz gets a feel for Calruz's character. Even [[Haldagaz]], through weeks of planning, managed to write a letter pleading for Calruz's life. | ||
At home in the [[House of Minos]], their regular contact with the [[Isle of Goblins]] is fast approaching. We, as readers, get our first look at the lives of Minotaurs, and they are altogether filled with purpose. Some - like the actual Beriad - choose to fight and volunteer as members of the army, but others can spend their free time in less physically demanding ways. This purpose meant that minotaurs would throw themselves into their work and therefore not need to work for as many hours in a day. A regular drake [Merchant], [[Saimh]], showed all of this to his new apprentice as it was the drake's last trip to the Isle of Minos before he retired. In the throne room of Minos, the [[Inreza|Minotaur King]], Prince [[Khedal]], and Prince [[Lareqol]] talked about the real reason merchants were coming at such a tumultuous time. The Minotaur King, Inreza, put a policy in place that all of the art and statues would be sold on a regular basis so as not to stifle the younger generations with feelings of inferiority. Khedal also got the letter from Haldagaz since the rat had tried to contact the boss, and managed to make it all the way up to the authority of all minotaurs. Khedal showed it to the King and she agreed that they should keep an eye on the case, but they shouldn't act to alter Venaz's judgement unduly. Saying this, she tore up the paper and pieces of it flew away. One of those pieces was gathered by a raven from the approaching Isle of Goblins, and these goblins managed to recreate the letter finding it hilarious that a rat had sent it. They also had no such qualms about unfairly affecting Venaz's judgement, so with the blessing of their [[Goblin Lords|Goblin Lord]], they sent a thousand letters to Venaz pleading for his safety. Besides the hilarity of it, they reasoned that anyone that befriended a rat was worth trying to save. | At home in the [[House of Minos]], their regular contact with the [[Isle of Goblins]] is fast approaching.
