@Dagger this deadline was because of the time or the fact that scum paid the money? If it was because of the time I think it's unfair because PB has requested replacement like a week ago and I need to reread a whole game that's probably in lylo. In this case I request at least the time since PB was away and I joined the game to be added to the deadline.
Trigger 2: During Day, an amount of days has passed equal to the number of living players X 2. Effect: Either trigger will impose a 12-day deadline for the current Day phase. This deadline is absolute.
I fear there is little I can do at this point of time. The ability to impose or negate such a deadline is beyond my power.
mod: I am requesting replacement do to my mother in law illness. Things have gotten worse for her since she has been hospitalized and I need to focus on her and helping the family during this time.
@mod: If the King's Justice is bought one day but not used that night is the King's Justice up "for sale" again? If not, will we know when the King's Justice has been acquired but not used?
5. The King’s Justice ~Everyone is guilty of something. Trigger: During Day, any player may give The King’s Justice 5 tokens. The fastest player to do so gains the service of The King’s Justice. There is only 1 such service in the entire game. Effect: During Night, if a player possesses the service of The King’s Justice, the player may calls upon such a service to kill another player. A service rendered is a service gone. Remaining Services: 1
When a great House has purchased the service of the King's Justice, the number of remaining services will be 0. At that point, no other great Houses may engage the King's Justice's service until the end of this game of intrigue. I, as the Arbiter, will announce it here when such has occurred. The great House with such a service will thus wield a blade which they can use at any time during Night.
@ Dagger - 1. To use King's Justice since the trigger is Day but the ability is used during the night. Do the coins get used during the day or night? ....Follow up to 1. Only if the coins are removed during "night" are they removed before or after the coins from Courier post take effect?
My Lady, the service of the King's Justice is purchased during the Day. The great House which purchased such a service is thus 5 coins poorer during the Day itself.
2. If I gave a coin to a player could they forward "the same" coin during the same period to another player?
My Lady, the Courier Post is initiated at the beginning of Night, simultaneously for all great Houses. The possibility that you proposes is not possible.

Guards! Guards!
Feet thumped.
Shields glittered.
Spearheads brandished.
People hiding.
Cowering.
Wary.
The City Watch had mobilized.
The tension was too great.
The temper was too short.
When the nobles warred, the small folks suffered.
And a Kingdom in such heightened state is a prelude to chaos.
Order must be maintained.
Curfew enforced.
Peace imposed.
And there is none other than the City Watch able to do just that.
~~~
The City Watch has imposed an absolute deadline.
12 days remaining.
By friends or foes, it was not clear.
But slain she was, and that was clear.
By rights of succession, it was to be her flesh and blood.
But intrigue and power play made that not so.
Thus another rose on the ashes of her name.

Acknowledged, my Lady.
A replacement will be sought.
The whole House murdered in a single Night, they say.
The rest fell to pieces soon after.
But even when down to Six the Great Houses were.
That was not a piece of news as great as this.
The Beggars Sect was a Sect no more.
It was through decades of gaining wealth.
Providing a service none could really offer.
And when Beggars are not what Beggars were.
How could there be Beggars when none is poor?

Here lies the Lord of Wheat.
The Lord of Millstones.
The Lord of Wheels.
A Great House it was, even though the blood of traitors ran in its veins.
Yet when grounded to dust, all Houses are the same.
Lost in memories.
Forgotten in time.
Even more so, those of traitorous ilks.
The Fox nodded.
The Shark agreed.
The Salamander assented.
The Lady confirmed.
And the execution blade slashed downward.
A whisk of air.
A spray of red.
And the Millstone rolled on the ground, bloody and forlorn.

My Lady, such is the case for both the Beggars' Sect and the King's Justice.
Like a hot knife through butter.
It was so sudden, so unexpected, that the eyes only had time to bulge out in shock.
Mouth opened and closed, emitting only the gurgles of a dying man.
And a line of red gushed downward from the throat, drenching everything in slick hot blood.
The man flopped around on the ground trying to stem the red tide.
Like a fish out of water.
Like a pig for slaughter.
The blade flicked, and the blood splattered.
More victims.
More murders.
The whole House must be wiped out tonight.
All that scheming, all the plots, all the intrigue in the name of the King.
All ended with a single physical power play.
Assassination.
And the Silver Wolf lay forgotten, as the blood congealed into a dark red mess.

Six emblems were stamped onto the document.
Six signatures were flourished onto the sheet.
Six denouncements were directed in the name of the King.
The Millstone Lord. The Wolf Lord. The Salamander Lord. The Lizard Lord. The Shark Lord. The Skulls Lord.
Presumptuous upstarts.
Arrogant bastards.
The threat was clear enough.
Stand down to face the justice of the assembly.
By own free will or be forced to.
By a self-styled impromptu coalition.
Assets would be confiscated.
Estates would be divided.
The blood of the fathers would be gone.
But the soldiers and the small folks would be spared.
Who would dare oppose?
More than half the might of the current Kingdom arrayed against a single House, great it may be.
Still a single House.
Rage.
Helpless helpless rage.
