You glare at the man being held by the guard. He looks at you pleadingly. He is a short man, around 5'5 (the average height of a Voxian man is 6'3), mud coloured hair, and a dark, tanned look to his skin. "What is your name?" "Al-Alphari Gyuph, your Aurum." "And why are you here?" "I was accused of... murdering Avartidi."

You create a mental note of that sentence. 

"You realize the punishment for murder is a year in the arena, do you not?" "Yes, your Aurum." "Why did you murder Avari?" "I didn't, your Aurum. I was accused of murdering Avardi because I had attacked him before."

Something in your brain flicks on.

"And why, did you attack him before?" "He..." The small man shudders. "Yes..." You press on. "He slashed an innocent man's throat." He finishes, avoiding your eye.

Avari Typhalt is the head in charge of running prisons, also called "perimeters". You intensely dislike him, as he is a huge, bloodthirsty rogue.
