I *like* all these ideas! The Rebellion, being the good guys, would never do
anything morally questionable by C21 standards, would they? :) Or even by
their own standards!

"...further, these personages are placed under edict and cursed by the
Goddess: Minaryth Purple, Sage; Urrrggh the Ugly, troll; Hofstaring
Treeleaper, Rune Lord. May their souls wither and their brains rot..."
"So it is stated, and so decreed, by Valishor Longear, High Priestess of
