Summary: Knight captures outlaw. Knight loses said outlaw. Knight proceeds to go on a cross-country chase to recapture outlaw. Judge brought along for the ride. Both get hopelessly lost. (Basically, a whole bunch of backstory.)
The day had barely begun, and already he was bored.
Lord Exmouth, Chief Justice and temporary magistrate/justice for Smallbridge, sighed as he flicked listlessly through the very large pile of parchment on his desk. If there was one thing he strongly disliked about this appointment, it was the large amount of reports he was constantly having to send back to the capital.
He glanced to the pack of cards sitting neatly on the desk. If things got any worse, he might be sorely tempted to start a game. With himself.
Luckily, things never got that far.

Onward! )
