Nadezhda took the robes and Baston, and looked solemnly down at them. This was tradition, this was ritual, but it was not one of the ones she liked. She kept her face serious and grim, however, and turned to watch the souls pour out of the ex-Lawgiver and into the new one. She flew up to where the new one now lay, ready to hand him the robe and Baston when he regained composure.

Souls looks up at him and smiles. "I did it...I love you. Now go back over to Steele, I have one more thing to do." She stood up, absently pet the puppy on his hood, and bowed to the new Lawgiver, then abased herself before the King and Queen. "I have one final note of business. I call a Contest of Law." The common Crows started whispering; they knew what was coming. "I wish to take the place of the criminal known as Kiba, executed for his attack on the Honorary Crow Steele Draconis." She waited calmly while the Lawgiver proclaimed the Law, then called for a vote. By Law, James, Steele, and even Kiba were allowed to vote. The Hunters were also allowed to vote.

Surprisingly, Nadezhda stepped up and said, "Nay." She thought Souls should fight for her love, and if she won, she would have proven something. Two of the Hunters that had fought stepped forward and said "Nay" as well, while only the one other said "Aye".
Several commoners stood and shouted "Nay", the rest shouted "Aye", and had to keep from bickering as they waited with baited breath to hear the majority count.
The last few Hunters that hadn't fought conferenced with one another. Three said "Aye", the left over said "Nay".

It appeared that the majority voted against her. She nodded, and the Lawgiver cast his vote; nay. Souls was handed a regular wooden staff, and the crowd was moved back to give her and the Queen space to fight. The Queen thundered. "The Law dictates that in order for you to live, you must defeat me. This battle is to the death, and should you die, so will Kiba. Should you live, we grant full pardon for his crimes, and you may both live." Souls bowed respectfully, and the Queen did also, then they squared off to fight.

Steele suddenly gets an idea, one that will save everyone and Grant kiba's earlier wish as well. He jumps up and Runs inbetween the Souls and the Queen. "Please i beg to be heard before this begins." He Abases himself low to the Queen to prove hes not meaning Disrespect to any laws or traditions.

The Queen raised and eyebrow, but stepped back. "Proceed." she says, watching him with slight curiousity.

Souls is completely taken aback. This was simply not done. No one in the history of Beyond had ever dared intervene at this stage of a Contest of Law. The Queen went with it though, so she bowed and stepped back, wondering what the King had to say.

Steele stays low and continues to abase. Knoweing what hes just done he continues Cautiously. "There are Two seperate entites inside the body of the criminal, one attacked me one however did not, isnt there simply a way to remove the offender so as not to kill the innocent?"

The Queen made a clicking sound as she thought. "I suppose..there could be a way. If the Lawgiver were to use the Baston, he might be able to pull the offender from the other's body."
