The Bree watch

The Midgewater was quiet but for the  buzz of flies and the familiar "neek breek" croaking on insects. The sun dropped lower, the glow turning the brackish water crimson as Corrben stood on the edge of the ruin. He had spilled as much blood to soak the lands of his birth, the blood of southrons who seemed determined to destroy and steal all the hard wrought work his people had done. Raiders and thieves, rapists, murderers and con artists were all among the flow of folk from the south.

The squint eyed southerner was bound and forced onto his knees in the stone floor of the ruins in Midgewater. Corrben stood just to the side of him, his hands streaked with blood, staining the leather bindings wrapped around his knuckles. He noticed the unusually dark color, nearly burgundy rather than crimson as it oozed from the broken nose of the prisoner. Splattered on the pale stone, it looked nearly black.

(Many thanks to Priya for the idea and letting me use it, and to all the role-players whose characters are a part of Alex's life and influenced it.)

After a particularly messy scene involving an ambush by a trio of bandits, Aureliyn and Alex stand in front of a small stream and next to a small pile of ashes.

Turned in by Constable Karl Tannenbloom.

Attacker Andoryt was arrested by Constable Tannenbloom after threatening and attacking a man and two women. He was claimed to have thrown a knife at the man while using one of the women as a shield to protect himself. He also was said to have told the man that he would come for him. He was later contained after townsfolk of Bree interfered and disabled him from further attack.

He is now in jail awaiting punishment and further questioning.
