[Great Hall of Rockwall] FW: Northshield Digest, Vol 42, Issue 31

[Kelli Quinn]

I'm beginning to wonder if there is more to the Lord Pieter Van Dooren and 
Nan of York situation than we know. I wish I knew who to ask and how to 
frame the question so it doesn't seem like I'm gossiping. As a newer member 
to the society who hasn't seen this sort of thing before, I'm just kinda 
curious as to what could lower this kind of boom. Or maybe I'll just keep my 
mouth shut and avert my eyes. That might be safer. It's not in my kingdom, 
after all.

All I know about is their questioning of the elevation of a child to court 
baron. Maybe I'm just a merciful soul, but these punishments seem a little 
severe for that.

Edda, who's probably too curious for her own good.
