Kingdom Law

In the Kingdom, crimes are witnessed, guards respond, and the sentence is served.

Assault, killing, theft, picking pockets and tampering with locks are crimes in the Kingdom. Dark Relief casting is disapproved of.

A crime is a crime when someone sees it, or when someone reports it. When a guard confronts you, there are three answers:

  1. Accept arrest. Your belongings are confiscated to a chest; you serve your sentence in a cell; you reclaim your possessions.
  2. Pay a bribe, if you have learned how. It costs more for each offence.
  3. Refuse, and be fought.

Wounded guards withdraw and bring reinforcements. Strike the King or Queen and every guard in the Kingdom treats you as hostile on sight, permanently.
