The door slams inward, and three men shuffle in.
"Aghhh, it is too damn early for this.. Howdy, folks. The name's Kylos Korentho, Wizard Detective. Well, that's my name. Your names are not disclosed in the warrant, because you are, respectively, a wizard and a teenage girl I do not care about."
"Wait. You can't be a wizard. Wizards don't use names."
"No, dumbass, I'm a Wizard Detective. That means I Detect Wizards."
"Oh."
"I am also a wizard, though."
"What!"
"Oh, for the love of.. Look, I haven't broken any laws by it. You've broken some laws, though. Must've had a wild time yesterday. I've never seen so many charges racked up in one night. Kidnapping a child, pissing on a house on the other side of the continent, dropping a penny at terminal velocity.. This is all pretty damning stuff."
"What? I didn't.. Well, I did kidnap Clarence, but I didn't do any of the other stuff."
"Uh.. Huh. I wouldn't have picked that one to admit to. Look, only the Master of the Scrambling Stair could pull any of that off."
"Well, I am the Master of the Scrambling Stair, but.. Oh, that dick. Look, my tower's been stolen, so.."
"..I guess that makes you negligent, too! Anyway, I gotta read you your warrant, so, ahem.. 'Cheese Wizard, Third of the Seven Wizards of the West and until recently Master of the Scrambling Stair, due to excessive criminal activity, including twelve counts of culinary manslaughter, eleven counts of ..' Whoa, this list is looooong. Tell you what, I'll just skip this part. If you really want to read it, you can do that later. Let's see, 'befouling the land', 'delicious arson', yadayadayada.. '..and seven counts of unconscionable nudity. You have therefore had your duties revoked, your titles stripped, and your humiliation turned manifold. You are to be executed on sight by the bearer of this warrant.' Hey, that's me! Guess you won't get to read your charges after all. Oh well!"
Janet isn't sure what to make of all this, or what she should do. Help!
