==Contents==
Be it known that the following report is the legal statement of the guard Tamwen of House Levreth, who was witness to the events described. Tamwen has sworn to the truth of her report before Guardian Commander Wethril and Celeb'hel the Elder.
While on my rounds, just after dusk two days ago, I heard loud shouting and curses from Master Levreth's bedchamber. The voice sounded to my ears like that of the Master, so I approached the door cautiously (for Lady Levreth, who is generally a calming influence on him, was away on a visit). It was ajar, and I was able to see that the voice belonged not to the Master, as I had thought, but to his valet, who was searching the Master's chests and drawers, shouting, 'Where is it?'";
" My first thought was that he was looking for valuables to steal, something that Master Levreth would not miss. But as he passed closer to the door, I could see that his clothes were covered in blood. Fearing an accident, I entered the room to ask him whether he was wounded. But before I could speak, I saw that Master Levreth was lying on his bed, with a deep chest wound. I approached him, hoping to give aid, but saw that he was dead. I shouted to the valet to stay in the room, that I would send for the guardian commander. He replied with nearly incoherent protestations of innocence.
I imprisoned him in the wine cellar until the arrival of Commander Wethril, but Lady Levreth returned home before we heard anything from the commander. She was naturally distraught and demanded to know what had occurred.";
"I told her everything I knew. She questioned the valet herself, as well as the other servants, but told me that she learned nothing further. She told me that she desired the valet's execution. Under the law of the Edhel, it was her right, so I carried out the execution and sent a message to Commander Wethril informing him of the valet's death at my hands. The commander sent a reply to both messages, agreeing that Lady Levreth had acted within her rights and requesting that she and I travel to Aman'lu to swear to our actions, that Commander Wethril might inform the valet's family of their kin's death by legal execution.
