Vox, on the other hand, was all too happy to tell his story to the 
assembled Companions.  Vox had also returned from the east, and he 
entertained the Court with a long and incredibly vague tale of wars 
started, taverns visited, flags dropped, bows misfired, many things being 
jarred loose in his head, and a very large man whose name started with "G." 

THE RESURRECTION WILL NOT BE TELEVISED 
Lady Moira told the Court of how someone had dug up a corpse and 
delivered it to her house in a cart with a note which read, "this is 
Mordecaii.  Please bring him back."  As Sir Mordecaii's body was burnt to ashes*, it was impossible that the body could have been his.  Presuming that the author of the note meant for her to raise the body from the dead, Moira chose not to do so.  Locating a violated cairn somewhere in the lands, Moira arranged for the body to be returned to its grave and asked His Eminence to re-consecrate the burial site. 

MORE MICHAEL REQUIREMENTS 
As part of his quest for the first level of Sacred Michael, Sir Aeric 
read an account of the Battle of Hattin, one of the bloodiest battles in 
the Crusades.  He also had his sword, Redeemer, bound to him through 
consecration as the Court looked on. 

PROPERTY VALUES 
Lord Dragonsbane cleared up the question of ownership with regards to the missing wargolem by saying that it was left to him by Mordecaii in his 
will.  The queen asked that Lord Dragonsbane surrender the golem to the 
regency as a whole, and to allow the golem to be bound magically to all 
the regents so that no one Companion could control it.  Lord Dragonsbane was resistant to the idea of giving up his personal property, and Sir Aeric suggested that the mistrust of fellow Companions that begun the whole mess with Mordecaii and his school should end by the queen trusting 
Lord Dragonsbane with possession of the wargolem.  No decision on the 
matter was reached, which is just as well for the wargolem is still at 
large. 

Lord Dragonsbane also gave the Hold of Gaul to Ohmylahrd F-f-f-fritz. 

HE MAKES QUESTS *AND* SPIFFY DOUBLETS! 
In the suprise of the season, the Pendragon itself made an appearance in 
Court this e'en.  Well, sort of...the dragon was far too big to actually 
fit through the Courtroom door, so it was only able to extend one massive 
red-and-gold scaled claw into the room.  From the hallway beyond, the 
Pendragon issued personal quests to Sir Ender, Sir Aeric, Queen Flidais, 
Duke Lorath, and Lady Moira. 

A TWO-DIMENSIONAL CHARACTER 
The Court was visited again by the enigmatic and annoying Galavantis this 
e'en, who informed the Court that he was taking people, 200 at a time, 
from the Eleven Lands and spiriting them away to his world/dimension, 
wherever that might be.  As usual, no straight answers were forthcoming 
from Galavantis, although he was far more lucid (not to mention calm) 
this week than he was the week before. 

EXCHANGE STUDENT SPEAKS 
One of the missing students from the Wilderland school came into Court at the request of Lord Dragonsbane, with a possible peace offering for the 
Companions.  He informed the Court that the people that Galavantis was 
taking from the Lands were being replaced by people from his world/dimension. 

ANOTHER FINE MUS 
Earl Mus gave up the thaneship of Clan McQuillon this e'en, stating that 
he could not hold the position and do what he had to do at the same time.  Rather than name a successor, he left it up to the clan at large to choose a new thane.  He also returned the Earldom of Barden to the clan to do with as they saw fit.  He then left the Court for the e'en. 

DYER NEWS FROM BARDEN 
Shortly after Mus' departure from Court, a letter arrived for Sir Aeric. 
After reading it, he reported to the Companions that Mus' body had been 
found dead in Barden two days prior to that e'en.  The letter, which was 
from a guardsman in Barden, stated that no visible wounds could be found on the Earl's body, and that the body did not seem to be decomposing. 
Also of note was a strange black pool of slimy goo found not ten yards 
from the body.  Queen Flidais sent Lord Dragonsbane and Lady Moira to 
investigate the matter; Sir Aeric offered to go as well.

That's all for this week, Companions!  Join us next time for another 
exciting installment of JOOSEE ROOMERS!! 

*Sir Mordecaii's mortal remains were not cremated, but in fact were buried in a clearly-marked grave in Glastonbury.  Why the majority of the Companions believed they were cremated is unknown.
