Balerion was quite happy to see Apoc. He had been missing for a while and his cousin Tananda had been quite worried about him. Of course Balerion knew what it was like to be busy, but it was good to see that at least most was well in the world of Apoc.

[Apoc256]

He made his way to the witness stand and took a seat. He then nodded in appreciation when presented the glass of water. After downing the glass of water, he cleared his throat and gave his statement.

That day my words on the matter were in response to the suggestion that the then current state of the Widu temple being part of a Fenian Diocese would compromise the security of Bravia.

I stated I know little of the laws of our neighbors and was concerned there might be laws affecting it's temples. I felt we should get more information from the citizens of Widu but if it is a security risk I support the changing of Widu's temple to the Bravian Diocese.

Apoc sat quietly waiting for more questions or to be excused.

[balerion]

Thank you Lord Apoc, I think that will be all.

Logo spoke, The defense rests ... again.

Councilor Grayson, does the prosecution wish to cross-examine the witnesses?

Iffy so, please procede.
Otherwise, the court izza prepareded to hear closing argumentses from the prosecution.

Balerion, as customary the defense's final arguments will follow.

[Grayson]

Grayson stood, Thank you your honor! Grayson turned to the witness, Councilman Apoc, would you tell the court, were these talks held in the council chambers or out of it? Were they a sanctioned talk or speculation and hearsay outside of the chamber?

[Apoc256]

It was discussed within the council chambers but never put to a vote.
