[DM]Formal letter of complaint: Dominic Swift
-
Lord Immerdusk
I take great offense at the recent commoners invited amongst us. Today, for politely reminding the Precepts that their charter exists by the graces of the Crown, Dominic Swift the commoner challenged me to a Duel of Honor. As I only duel those of a similar station as myself, I refused, and reminded him that he was acting out of turn.He then continued calling the ancient house of Florent a House of beggars, and threatened both myself and Adelaide, the woman who just brought in Ma'Crag.
"Or we can see what remains of your beggar house, once I am done" where his words.
His constant desire to tear down those who share his uniform, in an attempt to make himself look good, is appaling. He clearly does not know who his betters are.
I expect a proper reprimand, or removal from office.

Truly,
He rises above his station in thinking to challenge you to a duel of honor, as if a commoner possesses any of note when compared to those of noble blood.
If he truly believes you acted inappropriately, he should have reported to me.
I will see this resolved.

It is appreciated. His actions of doing this in broad daylight, in public, has minimized my ability to represent the Crown. In my latest meeting with representatives from other organizations, I had to sit and be questioned, second guessed and further disrespected. For is Dominic can do so, why shouldnt they?
They see his public taunts, disrespect and defiance of my noble blood,as a way to "grab" power not given to him, and therefore sit on the fence, to see whether his or "my" words or his carry most weight.I know he has been in the Guard for a while. I did my best to teach him decorom, and nobless oblige, hoping it would inspire him to acting with grace and style, expected of the noble class, and therefore of those we share a uniform with.
It has worked wonders with Adelaide, who has converted to the Lathanderite faith, found her place, and is pursuing her dream of becoming a knight one day, to better serve the people. She sees how we act, and tries to emulate it, to become a better version of herself.Dominic on the other hand, has not taken to my teachings. He may be able to swing a sword, but lacks any respect of nobility, and definitely lacks any form of grace or style.
I leave the matter in your hands, and hope for a swift resolution.
