FROM THE DESK OF THE GRAND COMMISSIONER
After this, a few notices came directly from the Grand Commissioner's office.
1. Houses d'Ortonaisse and Harhold are currently under investigation. The Violet Order will be working in conjuction with the State to assist in reviewing the cases against both houses. The d'Ortonoaisse are yet being investigated over the untimely demise of Reverend Gewittermen. Vivienne Harhold stands accused of kidnapping multiple noblewomen and leading illegal forces throughout the city, and then fleeing to the Bastion Keep through secretive means. All members of both families will do well to report and speak with members of Law Enforcement to cooperate with these pending investigations.
2. The Imperial Chancellory, Black Tower, and multiple points across the city are being outfitted with canons and ballistaes in the event of another dragon attack. These weapons have proven to be a deterrent at the very least, and will remain in use until the dragon threat is no more. The barricades put up around the Bastion will be manned by all members of Law Enforcement, as well as hired Mercenaries as the need arises.
3. The Arcane Task Force will be named and its exact role detailed within the coming days. The Public Library of Common Saints will serve as its partial Headquarters for the time being, as members of the Order are put together and announced. Those feeling their own skills may contribute to this organization should visit the Grand Commisioner personally, or write to his office.
4. The Grand Commisioner wishes to clarify to the public that the Consuls have restricted the rights of House Guards for some reason as opposed to expanding them, and that the meaning of such will be put under scrutiny in the coming dangerous days.
5. Finally, the Mercenary Registry has been established to ensure a steady stream of employment and wealth flowing through the Empire at these costly times. The tax Mercenaries must pay to the Empire montly has doubled, but the freedom in their work allows them to take in more jobs and more coin with less legal restriction. Those wishing to register as a Mercenary need only submit their request to the Grand Commisioner's office.
