GOT A LITTLE CAP'N IN YA?
The rogue Admiral Mollari dared to show his face in Court this e'en, 
donning an insultingly poor disguise (glasses) in a ridiculous attempt to fool the Companions.  He suggested that he might possibly be persuaded to 
aid Warwick in the current crisis with Lyonesse, but after a time he became bored with his game and left.  Paladin Aeric pursued Mollari with a number of guards, but was flabbergasted when a black galleon descended from the clouds in front of the Citadel, retrieving Mollari and flying off before he could be apprehended.  As a response to his affrontery, Queen Flidais put a death-mark on the former Companion's head.

MUDDY WATERS
Sirrah Mudd was escorted to Court this e'en by a damaged golem of the 
type currently used by the force holding western Warwick.  It turns out 
that the squire got into a bit of a tussle with the invaders during a recent trip to Gaul.  Mudd sought to reopen the Rusty Anvil weapons forge which was entrusted to him by Omahlourd F-f-f-fritz, but the forge was closed on account of it lying within the occupied land of Gaul.  When hindered in his task by the golem, Mudd lashed out and damaged its eye.  The golem warned the Court that such actions would not be tolerated within the occupied lands.  According to Sirrah Mudd, there are roughly a hundred golems currently in Gaul, and an unknown number of human mercenaries.

THE RABBIT DIED
The mercenary Thomas Moore was confronted this week by the Chanuka Bunny, who accused him of running over the Easter Bunny with his horse shortly after her visit to the Court last week.  It was suggested that since 
Moore was responsible for the Easter Bunny's death, he should be the one 
to replace her and take up her fuzzy duties as distributer of candy-filled eggs.  Nothing was resolved this week, although some of the Windsor guards claim to have seen the mercenary deliver "one fierce tickle" upon the bunny following her exit from Court.

TOO MUCH TIME ON MY HANDS
A rogue Timeanoid came to Court this e'en, offering an alliance with the 
Companions to oust his people from the occupied lands.  He explained that 
he was once a high-ranking member of their council, but was exiled when 
his vision of the future did not agree with the visions of the others.  He offered to guide the Companions in their quest to reclaim the three lands currently held by the golems and Timeanoids, a quest which (according to his vision) involves a wizard in blue robes using a magic staff to destroy a great number of the invaders.  In exchange for his help, the rogue Timeanoid asked for one of Mus' anti-time magic talismans; time around him has been slowed down considerably as a result of his exile from his people, and he feels that a talisman would change that.

In a related story, the wizard Dagoth Or, who had been in the lands for 
several months looking for Vivek's staff, came into Court to announce that he would be leaving the lands due to the current troubles here.  A little too related, it seems....could there be a connection?

FERRET-DOC COMPETITION
On a lighter note...a reminder to all artists out there: the entries in Lady Moira's "ferret-doc" competition will be judged by the Companions as a whole at next Court.  The winner of the contest, which is to depict a cross between a ferret and a Caradoc, will receive some form of baked goodies from Lady Moira's kitchens.
