Several members of the Royal Fang, an elite unit of the Royal Scouts, are pulled from their watch in the Hullack Forest to speedily courier several patches of parchment around Cormyr. Under very firm instructions delivered by the Dragon Throne, the Fangs post these notices not only in cities, but in the wilds, where the one that they address cannot help but to see them.
To the overreaching and unentertaining Mahrek Vargas,
We were pleased to accept your letter, no doubt delivered by illegal means. We have been unable to find a mage registration for the name Mahrek Vargas. Also, we were pleased that you accepted responsibility for the terrorist attack in Skull Crag. There were rumors, yes, but nothing concrete. Our thanks for that.
The Laws of the Forest Kingdom are clear in this matter. Mahrek Vargas has committed the following:
Murder
Disobedience of a Military Official
Unregistered Spellcaster
Arson
Disturbing the Peace
Threatening/Dangerous Behavior
There is one more, isn't there? What is it?
Oh yes: Treason
And now we have a letter requesting, actually demanding immunity. Not only that, but it demands the act of assault, not even murder, but assault on this individual, punishable by death. What is called negotiation is little more than a megalomaniac trying to press his beliefs upon the people of Cormyr. A true performer tailors material to his or her audience. We find your threats little better than those of a terrorist and unbecoming of any sort of performer.
As you offered no negotiations, but demands, it behooves us to inform you that each of your demands is summarily rejected. There will be no pardon in a clandestine iron box. Your dreams of clemency and hopes of a brighter future of the clean and pure will be made much more difficult now. Whatever "steps" you have taken are pointless, as you are being hunted even now.
There is something you must understand about how Cormyr functions. The Forest Kingdom has had its share of terrorists and terrorist threats, more than its share some might say. From the Western Liberation Front, to the more recent attacks of Banites and Banite allies, Cormyr has had it rough, but Cormyreans still stand strong. You are now being hunted, and not only by the Crown's loyal Purple Dragons and War Wizards.
As of the posting of this document, we are offering a bounty of twenty thousand lions toward the capture, dead or alive, of Mahrek Vargas. If alive, his hands and feet must be bound, and his mouth gagged. If dead, the entire corpse is required for the full amount.
Be advised, Mahrek Vargas. Your best hope now is to turn yourself in and submit to the Dragon Throne's justice. Should you even consider laying a hostile hand, weapon or spell upon anything Cormyrean, I will empty the garrisons to hunt you down like the flea-bitten dog you are.
Hunt well, Cormyreans and Charter-bearers!
By my hand,
Alusair Nacacia Obarskyr
Steel Regent of Cormyr
