A door would open and immediately a hush fell over the courtroom. Though it was difficult to see exactly who or what had entered at first, it soon became obvious as the newcomer took the judge's position.
Money Is The Best Lawyer Canine Male Hybrid
Illaro-Kitsune
Mindspeech: Italics #0017ee
If Ilythir are materialistic, then this hybrid takes it to a whole new level. He hoards all kinds of money, whether it be gold pieces or precious gemstones. He also seems to have some kind of unhealthy attachment to quite realistic stuffed animal shaped like a young Illaro pup, one that he claims is his child and occasionally carries around with him like an actual pup though he has neglected his adopted pup in the process, which led to their relationship becoming strained. The reason for his hoarding is, according to him, to take care of his child who can't do anything for herself. He has also proven to be very protective over the stuffed toy, often curling up to sleep with it at night. Sometimes he questions himself, knowing that what he is doing is wrong but in the end it's for a noble cause. He is willing to do awful things if it means he will be able to secure a large sum for his hoard and for his pup. Having lost his mate and pup in a drowning and with the stuffed toy looking so similar to his deceased pup, he has convinced himself that his pup's soul resides in the stuffed toy and so he's going to do whatever it takes to keep her safe and support her, though he has to do unsavory things.
His Water Kitsune lineage has gifted him with cerulean blue fur and two fluffy tails, though they're not quite as plush as a pure-blooded Kitsune's might have been. His eyes are a deep blue color, with the kanji for 'water' located just above them. Befitting his Ilythir rank, he has black runes covering his body that glow when the conditions are right.
Read the charges of the accused, he stated simply. A red hippogryph stood up, carefully unrolling a scroll. The list trailed down to the floor: ill treatment of war prisoners, killing of hostages, torture, murder of civilians that had peacefully surrendered, taking women and children as slaves, and so forth. The apparent judge listened intently, his expression unchanging even as those in attendance began to mutter amongst themselves.
In times of war, we do what we must to protect the peace, the hybrid judge said finally. I find the defendant innocent of the charges. Release him.
There was an uproar of outrage from the witnesses and the hellhound lowered his head in gratitude, though a sly smirk played upon his muzzle to those who were close enough to see as he was led out.
Silence! This trial is over - proceed to the nearest exit. Any stragglers will be removed by force.
With these words the judge would step down and leave the courtroom through the door he'd come from.

Upon Jirin's return from the kitchen, the equine hybrid would tilt her head slightly as she watched him try the food. Seeming convinced that it was safe for consumption, she would take a dainty bite from the raw dish, chewing thoughtfully. Judging from the way her eyes lit up, she seemed to enjoy it. Both of her servants turned their gazes towards Jirin, the male looking grateful and the female somehow sorrowful. Well. It seems I have found myself a new head chef. She sounded amused. I have high expectations of you, I hope you know. Do not disappoint me, or you might end up on the menu yourself.
As she spoke, the room seemed to shift and ripple around the two of them - even the two servants at either side of the table vanished from sight. It soon became clear that they were both outside where Jirin had begun, the door and its guardian light having disappeared along with everything else...aside from the now-empty bowl that had once held the poke he had served her. Were those indentations of teeth in the bowl? Regardless of the elven warrior's mind potentially playing tricks on him, the equine hybrid would meet his gaze once again.
A sudden feeling would wash over him, like he hadn't eaten in years. The hunger was enough to send a weaker individual to their knees, clutching at their stomach. This was just a glimpse of what she felt when she was hungry - it was like a wild animal was clawing at the insides, demanding sustenance.

------------------------------
The alicorn stiffened visibly at the offer, turning her gaze to Nat and her companion. Even after everything she had done, the atrocity she had committed, they were willing to take her in and keep her safe from those who might seek justice for what she had done? She knew she would be putting them both at risk in doing so should it get out that they were harboring a murderer...but where else could she possibly go? The alicorn dipped her head. While I am no longer worthy of the title of healer, your gesture of kindness is one I will not forsake. Even if it costs me my life, I shall walk this path with you and yours. I cannot thank you enough for accepting someone like me into your herd.
With these words she would lower her head, her horn resting between Nat's lekku as the bond between them settled into place. It would fill Nat with a kind of lethargy, not unlike the feeling that made one want to curl up under a soft blanket and sleep instead of doing anything else akin to first waking up in the morning. Perhaps she would be able to begin her own healing process with Nat's help.

With the bond now in place, the alicorn would remove her horn from Nat's person and the sleepiness that had accompanied it would fade just as quickly. For better or for worse, she had entrusted herself to this strange but kind young creature and her compatriots. From this point going forward, Nat would have an extra pair of hooves to aid her - once her new alicorn friend regained her confidence in her own healing ability, but that might be a long time coming.

(That's the end of the storyline for Nat and Jirin! All that's left for them is to name their new bondeds. As for Carrot, he is free to decide what he will do in round 3 though it might be a good idea to follow our mysterious judge. Who knows, it might just save his life...)
