They who aid the dragons or deny the crusade are denounced as unbelievers and judged by the inquisition. Even if they were to flee, theirs would be a beast's life, for every hamlet would be closed to them.
Once in the inquisitors' hands, there is only death. Death that proves innocence, or death that follows proof of guilt. It is cruel but...we cannot suffer a heretic to live, can we?
I hear word that many heretics are choosing to surrender themselves for their crimes. Some may be pardoned, but I expect those who were involved in the summoning of Lady Shiva will be shown little clemency...
