<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Early this afteroon I stepped into the Black Dragon
Inn, on the pretenses of getting a cup of tea, then returning to patrol, but was
met with a brawl between a woman named Lay`Trayin and Macabrae. I ordered a halt
to the fighting, and they both complied. I was then informd that the woman,
Macabrae had attacked the feline girl Si Howe by use of psionics, a story that
was backed up by several in the inn. When I informed the attacker that she was
to be taken into custody for questioning, she refused, and then threatened me.
She proceeded to resist arrest and I was forced to resort to brute force to
subdue her. Unfortunately, a boy, Ender, who, I have been informed was
previously arrested on charges of mind rape, but released after flogging earlier
today, stepped in and teleported her out of our reach. After searching the
grounds, I discovered from the stable master that Macabrae has a horse stabled
there, black with crimson mane and tail which she is never far from at any given
time.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It was requested that I arrest Ender, which I have
done, and he is now pending judgement in a cell. While I was transporting him to
a holding cell, Macabrae invaded my own mind with mindspeak, then an inadvertant
psionic attack. Fortunately, part of my training with my brothers has ensured
that I am not completely unprepared for such an attack. By focusing all emotion
into that mind link, I was able to counter her attack. After said attack, she
came forward to surrender, on the grounds that the boy not be
killed.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>With the murderer arrested as well as he who would
aid her, Magistrate Abraxas was sent for to pass judgement on Ender for his
crimes. I will also add that this was his second arrest in the span of twenty
four hours.</FONT></DIV>
