As I am leaving the region with my cousin, Scion Izereth Caul will take my position as Councilor for the Precept Arcanum. See to it she gains access to the files and gets a key.

They suffered this mark for assisting, some leeway would be fair.

If you extend this to our sibling only, it is understandable as he can resist. Or at least makes the effort.

The Storm Horns Dragon Spirit is responsible for any assault those afflicted by its Mark will commit on the ones targeted by the creature. They are to have amnesty for their crimes as it is in fact the crimes of the dragon controlling them. They are to be subdued should they lose control, and isolated away from the targets until they regain their wits. They will be asked to avoid contact with Sir Pierre Cambrian, Jace Throgmorton and the Magus Adanja Nikos at all cost until the mark can be removed one way or another.

This bring a serious concern for the safety of the marked. They are compelled to act on the dragon's behalf, and so far, only my sibling Ichabod has had the strength to resist the creature. I must insist it is not their fault and that, although the necessary means must be taken to subdue them should they be taken over, further harm to them would simply be criminal.

I am setting up a vote on the matter so that we are all on the same page in this. The Dragon is responsible for any assault the afflicted will commit on the ones targeted by the creature. They are to have amnesty for their crimes as it is in fact the crimes of the dragon. They are to be subdued should they lose control, and isolated away from the targets until they regain their wits. They will be asked to avoid contact with Sir Cambrian, Jace and the Magus at all cost until the mark can be removed one way or another.

Besides busting in, surely someone has a set of keys in the Palace.

-Ydira

I take it we have access and of course the keys? I request a few copies to hand out to a select few of my family and to Jace so he can continue the research on the beholder hive. This has been dragging on long enough and the facility needs to be used again for its purpose.

-Ydira

We encountered a few of them on the road between Bospir and Hillmarch. They are stronger than your regular full blood orc due to their demonic blood. Resistant as well.

They may be related to the mine problem?

-Ydira

I would agree with you there, Sir Cambrian.

It is why I suggested the Council be granted custodianship until a suitable party is decided. Jace can be given access as a researcher.

Perhaps we could sell permits to use the facility for research? The council would veto and grant access. There are several possibilities to this situation.

-Ydira

We encountered one of her creations on the south road. A burning bones skeleton. The thing was rather chatty as well, believe it or not. It told us it was a butcher and that he had made a deal for riches with a woman in red. Needless to say, the deal did not go his way and he ended us an undead. She seems to be going around making deals with people and, of course, using whaever loophole devils do to take their lives.

I have seen giant undead whenever she is encountered, along with other types. As for the creature, she appears as a red haired woman dressed in a red gown. You will hear the sound of bells or breaking glass around her.

With the Seekers of the Fallen Star gone, the facility is left vacant. Unless another worthy group is suggested and approved to take over, I suggest the Facility falls under the Council's authority.

The Beholder Hive is a grave problem that must be monitored and handled. The Precept Arcanum have a vested interests in the matter and seek to see this facility up and running once more.

The current terms are as follow:

"The Facility in the Helmalnds is to be retaken by and subsequently put under the care and supervision of the [Caretaker's name or Organization], in the name of the Kingdom of Arabel.

This under the supervision and sponsorship from House Mossmere.

The Land remains under the ownership of the Crown until their Majesties decide grants it to them or any other worthy citizens or faction of Arabel. The management of the Facility and its lands will be in the care of the [Caretaker] organization until the time they no longer wish to have custodianship, or the Crown deems them no longer worthy.

The Facility will mainly be used for Research on the Helmlands and facing the threat of the Beholder Hive. Its purpose will expand with time and under the care of the [Caretaker].

Management of the facility and its lands includes renovations, expansions, the creation of any new research project or magical experiment.

The Facility will be under some exemptions when it comes to the magical matters of law, which were granted to the former owners at the time. Common sense is of course demanded. Any specifications can be provided by the Arabellan Court Wizard."

Should House Mossmere no longer wish to sponsor and supervise, this duty could be passed on to the Council. The Precept Arcanum offers its services in the matter should the Council and the House decline these duties.

The wizard called Jace Throgmorton seeks entry to the Facility to continue research he had started with his master Alistair of the Seekers. He is working on the beholder threat along other issues, like the Purple Worm threatning Tilverton. A potential candidate as caretaker.

What are the council's thoughts on the matter?
