Report of a murder by Thomas Castemount

25th day of Eleint, One hundred and seventy eight AR.

As I was bringing a bound, secured, unarmed, and for all purposes helpless prisoner to the jailer, the individual known to me as Thomas Castemount approached with a warded weapon, and in some sort of gesture of intimidation to myself, for capturing cultist, slew my prisoner out of hand as they told me "Stop that." He then proceeded on with his companions.

Was the cultist evil? Yes.

Was he deserving of treatment under Cordor law, once he was detained, and helpless? Yes.

Did Thomas, choose, to slay a bound prisoner, out of hand? Yes.

More so was it done as an act which had no relation to the prisoner, but simply as a form of the most viscous manner of egotism? Incredibly so.

There is no way about this. Thomas Castemount, in this instance, chose to engage in a murder under any reading of the Cordor laws with this regard. Why my bringing cultists to the jailer, to interrogate, and see to their justice under Cordor law, is of some issue, I cannot say.

I can say this, this murder, for the sheer exercise of power and bloodlust, is a dark stain on his character and should be taken into careful consideration when dealing with him in any capacity going forward.
