Transcribers note: Some liberties were taken for the sake of brevity, but none of the content has been changed in any way that would alter the appearance of stated opinions.
Tribunal members’ statements and questions are in normal font, defendants and their attorney are in italics.
Telion: How long have you been leader of Dark Carnival?
Truwind: About three months.
Telion: Do you support Omni-Admin in the decisions that it makes?
Truwind: Do I have a choice? My rules for my org are set to help omni exterminate the clans. Yes I support Omni to the fullest.
Telion: Will you punish Aberic for his actions and submit a formal apology to the Council of Truth, since by attacking the decoy, Aberic has put in peril the peace process and therefore the greater good of Omni?
Truwind: Aberic is my member. I have openly enjoyed the fact that he killed a clan clone. In fact, we had a party and deemed Aberic a hero for his duty to Omni. If it was the real Radiman, they would have no use for COT. I pray its the next we see Radiman he will fall under the gun of DC. As for the formal apology to COT, why should we apologize?
Telion: So will you cede leadership of your faction to another, to avoid punishment against the department as a whole, or do you speak for your entire department?
Truwind: I'm responsible for DC. I speak for DC. I lead DC. The only way I'll cede my leadership is if my guild votes for it.
Telion: Very well, no further questions for Truwind at this time. I cede the floor to Derva.
Derva: Ms. Truwind, does your faction have allegiance with the so-called 'Black Alliance"?
Truwind: No. In fact, TBA is a bunch of disorganized people causing havoc in the name of Omni. Our Allegiance lies with Unicorn Company.
Derva: Will you state for the Tribunal how exactly you benefit the Omni Corporation?
Truwind: I should ask you that question, Derva. Omni benefits from us. And in turn, we benefit from you.
Derva: Your snide remarks are uncalled for, please answer the question.
Truwind: We offer our lives on the battle field for Omni's belief.
Derva: There is no battle Truwind.
Truwind: A: Derva, then you are as blind as Ross.
Derva: Omni has enforced global amnesty, and a cease-fire.
Truwind: What cease fire? Show me this so-called amnesty then DC will abide by it. Until then, politicians like you will not make up rules on your whim. Omni needs stability. We need rules and we need laws. None of which Omni has at this time.
Derva: The order comes from Phillip Ross himself. I have no further questions. The rest of the Tribunal will question you now.
Meka: What did you think that the consequences of the attack would be?
Truwind: If the real Radiman would have been slain then all this COT and Omni talks would no longer exist. We are compromising Omni-Tek for Clanners.
Meka: In spite of direct orders from Omni Tek, you went ahead and killed a person under Omni Tek supervision. Were you trying to defy Omni Tek purposely and do you consider that good?
Truwind: There was no direct orders from anyone. At that time, I was not aware of anything that included Radiman in fact I wasn't even on Rubi-Ka.
Uthrak: So you admit to acting without all information?
Truwind: We don't defy Omni. Let me get that straight here and now. We have no directives / rules / laws. Countless times has Omni HQ been under the oppressive force of the clans. We took it as an aggressive move and removed the threat. DC and other orgs believed it was an attempt on doing harm to Ross. No where does and did it say we are not allowed to kill clanners. Radiman is a clanner.
Baxie: But you answered before that you take full responsibility.
Truwind: Yes, I do.
Davyn: As an Omni-Tek Faction leader, you are certainly familiar with the ICC Contract we are bound by. Do you believe your attack on an unarmed peaceful citizen of Rubi-Ka to be in accordance with the 'non-persecution' clause of that contract?
Sunamun: In which way do you think you were benefiting OT by attempting to assassinate Radiman, even though amnesty and cease fire were ordered by Ross?
Telion: Are you that dense to imply that you and your organization do not distinguish the leader of the Council and therefore the Clans from any other Clanner? Come now, Truwind. I want to give you more credit than that.
Truwind: Please, Davyn. That contract is out-dated and not even updated for the current times. It was made and written by some drunk leet. Fact of the matter is there is nothing.
Davyn: So you admit that you do not recognize, nor have you pursued knowledge of the Contract or what you are required by it?
Truwind: That contract is nowhere to be seen. I don't even know if it exists.
Truwind: Telion, being on the front lines we do not have the comfort like you do to stay on top of all the politics. As a soldier for Omni, we do one thing. Kill Clans.
Davyn: The contract has been available for quite some time, Truwind. Everyone that comes to Rubi-Ka MUST sign that contract or you are here illegally. Are you here illegally?
Truwind: LOL Davyn. Please show me this so-called ICC Contract "Officially"
Davyn: No more questions here, Ms. Meloche.
Bullert : Truwind, will you order your men to stand down on all hostile activities towards the clans if ordered today in this tribunal?
Truwind: Yes, without a doubt.
Snarf: Truwind or Aberic, how are you guys NOT rebels when you ignore a ceasefire, amnesty, attack rebels while they are trying to rescue YOUR personnel from the borg, kill an unarmed diplomat and embarrass Omni-Tek galaxy-wide?
Truwind: Easy Snarf. While I don't think I have to justify Omni to a scum bag like you, I will in the interests of the trial. Again, there is no ceasefire. The amnesty will not work without a ceasefire. The rebels wanted to keep the engineer because she new the truth. Scum like you made them to help you fight the war. So the clans tried to keep it hush hush but once again they failed like always.
Snarf: Thank you Truwind, that is all.
Bullert: Truwind, please watch your tone or I will hold you in contempt.
Whitedread: Aberic, was the assassination attempt this clear violation of the ceasefire and the amnesty issued by Omni-Tek, an individual action by you OR was it planned and supported by a larger group?
Truwind: Good god! There is no ceasefire! Stop trying to imply that there is one.
Aberic: The planet has given birth to an entity and it has spoken to me. It is not good nor evil, but wants you to know that it is suffering.
Venge: How do you know of this Aberic?
Aberic: As for my actions please call Colonel Frank Kaehler to my defence.
Whitedread: Did you kill the Radiman duplicate alone or was the assassination attempt planned by a larger group, Aberic?
Aberic Yes and no.
Truwind: Let me let you in on something, Whitedread. Do you know what Unicorn Company is? We are under direct orders from them.
Derva: Do you have evidence of this Truwind?
Whitedread: Did the so-called Unicorn Company plan the assassination of Mr. Radiman?
Truwind: About the same evidence that you have shown me that Ross issued a ceasefire on Radiman.
Aberic: What evidence do you have against me may I ask and what charges are filed against me?
Truwind: I'm sure he will speak to you about Unicorn Company.
Derva: I can ask Davyn to testify that I gave him direct orders to protect and escort Radiman.
Truwind: Ooooo so Omni Admin showing favouritism then? Protecting Radiman is EVERYONES responsibilities. Why are we on trial if we didn't know?
Davyn: No. I was asked to assemble an escort of leaders to see to Mr. Radiman's safety. Which I did, as instructed by Ms. Meloche.
Aberic: What about Portman, what about the TAG interview? Why am I here and not her?
Truwind: It's nice to see that Omni Admin has such faith on picking lesser guilds to guard a well known VIP. It's also nice to know that Omni Admin doesn't communicate with the rest of the orgs.
Bullert: Truwind, we wanted a smaller entourage to attract less attention.
Bullert: Regardless of the reasons of Omni-Tek, that does not change the fact that your faction member attacked Mr. Radiman not once, but twice.
Barzillai: Truwind, you have on several occasions denounced Chairman Ross and his decisions, how does this help the corporation?
Truwind: You need to get off that Notum high you been living on. Denounced? You talk at me like I'm azzador. I said I do not agree with the amnesty.
Barzillai: You have openly stated that you think Boss Ross is incapable of making a decision. Is that not true?
Aberic: The amnesty is all that the Clans want to kill you and as soon as they can, they will.
Barzillai: So you do not support Chairman Ross?
Truwind: I support the majority of his decisions, the amnesty is something I do not.
Barzillai So you are the final authority for OT decisions then?
Truwind: For my guild, yes.
Barzillai: Truwind, have you read the Oct. 25 order of Amnesty and Ceasefire? That was a direct order from Boss Ross...
Truwind: Yes. Again showing your brilliance. That amnesty supports the Tir accords. Something that does not exist. So hence the amnesty in my eyes doesn't exist.
Barzillai: Ok, so how does the Tir Accords not exist?
Truwind: Show me right now documentation of the Tir Accords. You do that and I’ll kick Aberic from DC. I’ll remove myself from DC and formally apologize to the COT.
Barzillai: Thank you Truwind, that is all.
Derva: I will dispatch men to find Colonel Kaehler.
Windowlicker: Truwind, as an Omni leader that knowingly allows her guild members to violate the Amnesty and thus direct orders, do you believe if removed from Omni you will be taken in by the clans, even though you support the member that killed the duplicate of their leader?
Truwind: Ok, lemme ask you this, what are we being tried for?
Windowlicker: Please answer the question, Truwind.
Truwind: My loyalty? Or my killing Radiman? I object that Window's comment is not relevant.
Windowlicker: Frankly, I think it is. That statement was build on your answers to date during this trial. I for one would like an answer, for both us and our clan friends here.
