"Jeffory, it's such a shame that your poor Abby will have to see this. If only you could do as you were told, maybe Abby wouldn't have to be an orphan."
Jeffory felt panic rising in him as Ivy put handcuffs around his wrists
"Janus, gather the rest of the jury and Abby in the dungeon. I'm going to make an example of what happens when someone goes against my orders"
"Zane! Don't do this, not in front of Abby! Please!"
Jeffory didn't want his daughter, his 5-year-old daughter, to have to watch his murder
"Tsk, Jeffory you did this to yourself. If you did as you were told none of this would be happening."
Before Jeffory could say anything else he was dragged out of the room and to the back set of stairs only the jury was permitted to useIvy knocked Jeffory out and threw him in a cell to wait for the others to gather in the dungeon as they were told
As all of the jury was somewhere in O'hksis or a nearby village it only took a day for them to all gather
They all had a day to rest before Zane had Janus get all of them to the room they had moved Jeffory to
Katelyn the Fire Fist
Ein the Blue Claws
Lillian the Silver scythe
Janus the Silver Death
Ivy the Venom Scythe|
Ivan the Red Warlock
Brian the Stone Face
All of them, besides Janus and Ivy, were a bit confused as to why Jeffory the Golden Heart was kneeling on the stage Zane held his own executions.
Katelyn was standing close to them, holding Abby in her arms
Ivy and Janus were standing on the stage beside Zane.
Jeffory wasnt in his Jury of Nine armor, instead he was in a slightly torn gray t-shirt and dirty jeans
"Zane, what is Irene's name are we doing here?"
Katelyn spoke cautiously, she didn't know what was going on
"I'm glad you asked Katelyn. Jeffory here has gone against direct orders one too many times. I'm going to use him to set an example for all of you of what will happen if you follow in his footsteps"
With that Zane held out a green amulet, the same green as Jeffory's armorJeffory let out a scream as his relic was taken from him, officially denouncing him from his place on the juryKatelyn covered Abby's ears and tried to face her away, Abby didn't need to see this
The next thing anyone knew Zane had grabbed Jeffory by his hair, pulling his head back. Without a second to waste, he swung his sword, cutting Jeffory's head clean off.
"I love you, Abby!"
Those were the last words Jeffory spoke before his head dangled from his hair in Zane's hand and his body fell forward
Zane let out a dark chuckle as he heard Abby start screaming and jump out of Katelyn's armsShe ran to her father's decapitated body and hugged it like her tears would bring him back to lifeZane pulled Abby's hands away from the body and dropped her dead father's head in her hands
