Charity begins to speak.
"Ponies of Glitterglen, this trial has been a great stress on all of us, and now it is time to put this unpleasant business behind us forevermore. Friesden Sectlaces, I, Charity Conventulip, Duchess of the Failed Jungle, Mayor of Glitterglen, by the power of Gadan the Virtue of Angels, Igest the Fragrant Smile, and all the gods above and below, I find you innocent of the charge of murder of one Psycho Carrot, and the court hereby accepts the claim of innocent by way of temporary insanity for the murder of your father efim, on the condition that you be placed on probation for the rest of your life in Glitterglen, the details of which will be worked out in the coming days, but for now, Captain, unchain the defendant, we're done here."
Charity walks out of the hall, half expecting it to explode behind her. Charity turns right just after walking out the door, and enter's her home. She levitates a do not distrub sign onto the door, before collapsing with her husband.
"My love. Did I do the right thing," she asks.
"I don't know," replies Cryptson, "but I hope so."
"I hope so too."
Charity plans to spend the rest of the day locked in her room waiting for the emotions of the trial to settle before she braves the outside world again.
(That's fine Dsarker, but just to make sure you are aware. The earthpony is in the guard under Captain Isos, and and the royal is serving under Captain Crest Fire. If that's fine with you, then I'll name them and post them right away.)
