Merow's Execution

[Punishment Square, Upon the Platform]
Dominating the center of the platform is a large wooden block. The stone around the slab has been stained almost black by what appears to have been a vast amount of blood, and next to it is a wicked-looking axe that rests on a wooden stand. Around the perimeter of the platform, in the square itself, are devices for containment and benches. Also here is Aira, Raeh, Reckless, Deloria, Corporal Aljeron, First Sergeant Jarod Sutton, Sergeant Merow, Corporal Khregen, Corporal Valorian, and Sergeant Shadeark.

Merow says, "Perhaps, I don't think the gods are too fond of me anymore though."
Merow asks, "A final warning, if I may?"
First Sergeant Jarod Sutton nods.
Aira sqeezes Raeh's hand.
Merow says, "A dark shadow is falling over this land people, and sadly it's not Talone. You're suspicion and bitterness will do a far neater job of you then that axe will of me. If you truly wish to save this land, forget trivial things, and be prepared to do whatever is necessary."

He falls lifeless to the ground.

Khregen curses, "By Grond's shorn beard der was a Gherkin."
