Judge; ‘the defense may now approach the jury and present their closing arguments.’

Defense; ‘thank-you, your honour.’

‘Look across this hall - do you see a cold blooded murderer? Or do you see someone who has been nothing, but an upstanding and productive member of this community? These foul allegations and perversions of truth have been have been brought about to damage the reputation of the defendant; who cradled that dying Spitter in it’s final moments and furiously beat at the poor soul to resuscitate it. Alas, the Spitter died, and it is true - Pseudonym84 blames himself, but can we - defenders of truth and justice - really condemn this selfless man to death?’

‘I leave the fate of this heroic man in your capable hands. Thank-you.’

Donations were made, and a memorial statue was erected in the young Spitter’s honour… though some disrespectful individual has desecrated it!

Don’t worry everyone, I won’t rest until the person responsible for defacing this statue is found! …

Lies! I was cleared of all charges!

You were cleared, doesn’t mean you didn’t do it, you just had a good defense

I wonder who was the judge. The choice of jury might have been biased too. We all know the corruption among Elopor authorities. Gems in right amount will get you anything.

i mean, the real question is, @Pseudonym84 did you butcher the poor spitter too?

3 Likes

He clearly butchered the poor creature, he has even boasted on occasions as to how he seeks out these innocent creatures and butchers them with what ever is at hand. I have even heard him myself, laughing with glee at the demise of any and all of them. There was even a report of a certain Doctor associated with the Smithsonian Institute saying he (Pseudonym84) had eradicated the spitter population on not just one, but two separate occasions! Where is the public outcry? Has anyone besides me, noticed that the jury has not returned their verdict? Psuedonym84 thinks that by using smoke and mirrors and fancy footwork that he can skirt these charges. I say that at the very least there should be a ceremonial dipping into the lava as punishment, and I want video proof of the event!!! @Scratchnwiff @DanBeforeTime

I hug my little baby spitter and cry…

Let’s hope if there ever comes a time when we can tame creatures, pseudonym doesn’t hold all the spitters slaves and make them die on their own

He would take them just for the sweet taste of betrayal while he slowly lets them starve.

Our only hope is to get him addicted to taming cuttletrunks instead.

Remember how the discovery of cooked meat lead to the extinction of the Mo’pig? Yep, I had nothing to do with that, ignore the throne of skulls and bones vaguely shaped like mo’pig skeletons that I keep in my citadel, I had NOTHING to do with that :rolling_eyes:

i personally prefer the Mo’pig pork over Spitter ribs. never really wanted to try the cuttletrunk tentacles until i visted Elopor and, there is like an infestation of them over there, plus it’s way easier to harvest the meat and tentacles from Elopor cuttletrunks, way less protective shell than the ones on Munteen, but less flavourful
