You are somewhat comforted that you have gained favor (35) with your God and are in no danger of walking the Starry Road, never to return.

You are a ghost! You must wait until someone resurrects you, or you decay. Either way, it won't be long now! (HELP for more details).

The cell door opens, and an armored guard enters, pointing a finger at you. "Come along, S'Kra Mur, it's time to face the judge."
You are quickly escorted out, and the door closed behind you.
[Guard House, Chamber of Justice]
A chill races through your spine as you stare up at the platform from which justice is so mercilessly dispensed by the local magistrate. A few low benches stretch out along the western wall, where a heavily-armed guard oversees visitors and defendants alike with a stern, watchful eye.
Obvious exits: west.
The judge gazes down at you with stern eyes, "Ianhanse, you stand before this court accused of forbidden practices. Though the evidence against you is considerable, final judgement has not yet been reached. How do you plead?"
[PLEAD INNOCENT or PLEAD GUILTY]

The judge sighs heavily, "Your silence shall be taken as an indication of your guilt, and your unwillingness to accept it. Let us proceed."

After a weighty pause, the judge speaks, "Ianhanse, you have been found guilty of forbidden practices in the Principality of Zoluren. It is with a solemn hope that you will change your ways that I pronounce a fine upon you of 12500 coppers. If you cannot pay immediately, your things will be held until you can repay the debt to society that you owe. Failure to come up with the money within twelve days shall result in a forfeiture of your possessions, and their intrinsic value removed from your debt."

The bailiff rifles through your coin purse briefly, until it is obvious you do not have the necessary cash. He tosses it back to you.
The judge nods, "Return when you have paid your debts, your possessions will be in a sack marked with your name, Ianhanse."
[You have ++72++ RL hours to pay off your debts at the local collection office, then retrieve your things. If you have not paid your debt at that point, your items will be forfeit, and some of their value put towards your debts.]
