[Royal Guard] A note sent to the Captain of the Guard

[Xiana Xoushon]

And then, for the simple reason that rumors seem to fly like wildfire, there 
is a third, though certainly delivered seperately, carefully written in 
almost elegant script:

An undisclosed source has brought it to my attention that there are those 
who think that certain members of the Royal Guard are too quick to use force 
in aprehending would be criminals. Well, I say to this, let they that have 
not sinned cast the first stone. You will find that in the Black Dragon Inn, 
and in much of Drache the Guard are purposefully provoked, and it can be a 
great strain on those under verbal and physical attack to maintain an always 
calm appearance. However, because one loses one temper does not make one 
overly violent. There are times when what an outside person may view as 
excess force becomes necessary.

As guards we bare the responsibility to reduce a threat to law abiding 
citizens. There are times when mere words do nothing to difuse a situation, 
and it becomes necessary to use force.

In regards to inciting incidents, I will kindly inform she who has voiced 
concerns that in the Black Dragon Inn, simply entering in uniform is enough 
to bring violence your way. This is something I have learned all too well in 
the past few months. Only someone who has not gained much experience in this 
field would voice such concerns, and, if necessary, I am prepared to stand 
beside any recruit, or armsman brought up on charges of excessive violence.

>>It has come to my attention that at least one of the new guards have been 
>>overreacting to, taking to violence over, and possibly inciting incidents 
>>within the Black Dragon district.  I stand personal witness to the Spell 
>>Recruit Odion's difficulties keeping his temper, or so it would appear.

>>I observed an incident last eve in the tavern that is the centerpiece of

>>orc and a dwarf.  From what I saw, and investigated later, his overall 
>>reaction to the incident was both excessively violent to the point where

>>some sort, and quite possibly unwarranted.

>>Be this some sort of sexual deviancy I know not, but whilst I should not

>>at all times with a more experienced guard so that their performance can 
>>be evaluated, and restrained if necessary.

>>Signed,
